What is EDR?
EDR, short for Endpoint Detection and Response , is a concept and technology used to protect computer systems and networks from attacks and intrusion by malware and other threats. That may occur at endpoints such as personal computers, servers, or other network-connected devices.
EDR systems help in detecting new threats and threats. That is unknown and has not yet responded to any protection tools currently available in the system. EDR can detect and record system actions such as opening programs, accessing system files, sending data over the network. To analyze and detect potential threats in the system, EDR systems can also respond immediately to attacks to eliminate or limit the damage caused.

Things to consider on choosing EDR Solution
When evaluating an EDR solution, you should consider its ability to effectively detect and respond to threats and its impact on performance and false positives. The ideal solution will have a high detection rate for known and unknown threats while minimizing false positives and maintaining good performance.
How Does EDR Work?
EDR systems are designed to complement traditional security solutions such as antivirus and firewalls. While these solutions effectively protect against known threats, they cannot always detect or respond to new or unknown threats. EDR provides an additional layer of protection by constantly monitoring devices for suspicious activity and reacting quickly to potential threats.
The agent monitors activity on the endpoint and sends information back to the console, where the analytics service can analyze it.
