What is EDR (Endpoint Detection & Response)?
Every device on your network is a potential entry point for attackers. EDR is the security layer that monitors, detects, and responds to threats at the endpoint level — stopping attacks that traditional antivirus completely misses.
Direct Answer
EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) continuously monitors all endpoint devices for suspicious behavior, automatically contains threats, and provides forensic visibility. It is the foundational security layer every business needs beyond basic antivirus.
Why It Matters
- ▸Detects ransomware before encryption spreads across the network
- ▸Isolates compromised devices automatically without manual intervention
- ▸Provides forensic timelines to understand how an attack happened
- ▸Monitors all process activity, file changes, and network connections
- ▸Integrates with SOC for 24/7 human threat hunting
⚠️ Risks If Ignored
- ▸Ransomware encrypts all business data within minutes of gaining a foothold
- ▸Fileless attacks leave no traces for antivirus to detect
- ▸Attackers dwell undetected for an average of 200+ days before discovery
- ▸No forensic data means you cannot determine what was compromised
