EDR agents collect telemetry from laptops, servers, and cloud workloads to identify suspicious behavior in real time.
What EDR solutions provide
- Behavioral analytics to catch fileless attacks.
- Isolation controls to quarantine compromised endpoints.
- Investigation timelines that reconstruct attacker actions.
- Integrations with SOAR or incident response tooling for faster containment.
Deployment best practices
- Roll out in visibility mode, then enforce blocking.
- Define playbooks for responding to high-severity alerts.
- Pair with threat hunting to validate detections.
