Supercharge your security operations with end-to-end visibility, protection, and response using SEQRITE XDR

Estimated reading time: 3 minutes

In today’s ever-evolving threat landscape, an organization’s security operations have never been more crucial. The complexity of remote work and multiple devices, apps, and tools has expanded the attack surface.

Cybercriminals use advanced tactics, including AI-powered spear-phishing attacks on peripheral users, making detection and prevention more difficult. Once compromised, the attacker can penetrate the organization further to reach higher-value data resources that can be exfiltrated and monetized.

Organizations must adopt a radical approach centred around cyber resilience to combat these threats. It’s time to be more vigilant and use retrospective analysis technics over historical data to follow up on every suspicion of compromise.

This is where Extended Detection and Response – XDR comes in.

 

What is XDR?

Extended Detection and Response: XDR is a unified security solution that provides holistic protection against cyberattacks, unauthorized access, and misuse of resources. A practical XDR tool correlates and analyses all security-related data sources to improve end-to-end enterprise visibility, threat detection and response capabilities, and context across your environment.

The near real-time threat intelligence enables the security operations team to detect, investigate, and remediate even the most complex threats from a unified console. The solution delivers increased flexibility, automation, and simplicity with unparalleled scale to every environment.

Gartner states:

“The primary value propositions of an XDR product are to improve security operations productivity and enhance detection and response capabilities by including more security components into a unified whole that offers multiple streams of telemetry, presenting options for multiple forms of detection and concurrently enabling multiple methods of response.”

Now a question arises – ‘How is EDR different from XDR?’

EDR is primarily a security solution that ingests machine-level telemetry data from endpoints and carries out analysis for automated threat detection and response for endpoints.

XDR is an advanced security solution that enhances security by offering more robust capabilities than traditional EDR solutions. It simplifies handling security alerts, data analysis, and correlation workflows across an organization’s security systems, leading to unified responses.

XDR gives out-of-the-box protection against advanced attacks such as ransomware and business email compromise (BEC) by building attack progression trees across multiple endpoint, network and cloud systems. In contrast, EDR can only help fend off endpoint-specific attacks and lacks the big picture to help with advanced attacks.

XDR is more than an industry buzzword. It’s a strategic approach to cyber security that combines disjointed products, data and processes to help security teams improve their detection and response capabilities for sophisticated threats.

Benefits of XDR solution –

  • Lightning-fast investigation and multi-system response with complete control over the remediation using incident management.
  • Simplify security operations and eliminate blind spots with complete visibility across all data sources across time.
  • Superior 24/7 active vigilance emphasizes machine learning, behaviour anomaly detection, and automated IOC/IOA search.
  • Orchestration and playbook-driven Security Operations automation with Incident and SLA Management lead to a 50% resource reduction.
  • Stop attacks while avoiding user or system downtime and increase scalability and flexibility with predefined automated response workflows.
