What is Endpoint Detection and Response?

Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a cybersecurity technology which continuously monitors all the endpoints within your infrastructure in real time to detect and respond to cyber threats like ransomware and malware. Endpoint Detection and Response also collects activity data from endpoints to analyse threat patterns as well as finding vulnerabilities which exist due to software not being up to date.

Endpoint Detection and Response will respond to immediate threats in the form of an automated response which may include blocking the application, sending an alert to an administrator, or logging off the user from the device.
