PlexTrac ConceptsEndpoint Detection and Response (EDR)

What Is Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)?

Endpoint detection and response (EDR) is a cybersecurity tool that monitors endpoints such as laptops, desktops, servers, mobile devices, and more. An EDR detects and alerts on unusual activities in real time so threat and incident response teams can react quickly to remediate vulnerabilities.

EDR tools can detect and analyze threats while integrating with other cybersecurity solutions.

How Does Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Work?

Endpoint detection and response solutions work by collecting and analyzing data across endpoints to find suspicious activity usually through machine learning models (MLM) or artificial intelligence (AI). By analyzing behaviors, EDRs can identify threats and respond in real time.

EDR systems also incorporate threat intelligence and provide greater visibility across endpoints for rapid detection and a stronger security posture through proactive threat hunting.
