Quick Reference Guide

What is EDR?

Endpoint detection and response (EDR) technology is used to identify and respond to threats on an organization’s endpoints (i.e., desktops, laptops, phones, and tablets).

What is MDR?

Managed detection and response (MDR) is the combination of EDR and other technologies and a team of security experts. The addition of human expertise ensures a broader range of protection, as these experts can immediately act upon identified threats.

What is XDR?

Extended detection and response (XDR) is essentially a next-gen version of EDR, but protects beyond endpoints, monitoring data from email, servers, the cloud, firewalls, network appliances, web apps, and more.

What is MXDR?

Simply put, managed extended detection and response (MXDR) is the next generation of threat detection and response. It is a comprehensive 24/7/365 service—driven by a team of cyber experts—that collects and correlates data from multiple sources beyond endpoints and provides detailed visibility in one location. MXDR is the most efficient and effective solution available to identify and eradicate threats.

How Does MXDR Work?

XDR technology collects and correlates the data that identifies threats occurring at different layers of your security stack. Our team (who add the “M” to MXDR) can properly configure the XDR to conduct forensic investigation and threat hunting activities across numerous security solutions, all from a single console.

Step 1: Ingest

Data from security log sources such as endpoints, cloud infrastructure, identity solutions, network traffic, and more is brought into the system.

Step 2: Detect

Log data is parsed, normalized, and correlated to automatically detect threats using cutting-edge artificial intelligence and machine learning.

Step 3: Respond

Through human and machine analysis, alerts are prioritized, so our highly trained security analysts and threat hunters can quickly analyze new events and automate investigation and response activities.
