What Is Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)?

Why is Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) now required to provide a strong cybersecurity platform? Traditional signature-based anti-virus is insufficient for today's threats. EDR monitors the behavior of your compute environment and provides sophisticated remediation context to assist in mitigating cyber events and shortening malware dwell time.

In the process of writing an blog post about EDR, your presentation was so helpful. I know really understand what an EDR is, thanks Steve!

[@stevemurphy2347]

Glad you found some value, Winona. Where's your blog?

[@johnwilliam3699]

Great video on the basics of EDR. I was struggling to find one that was vendor neutral.

[@stevemurphy2347]

Glad you enjoyed it!

Great video Steve. A worth while watch for many. I am sure this will become and common as AV over the next 5years.

[@stevemurphy2347]

Hope so! Thanks for your comment!

Great Video Steve!
It gave me a good overview about the EDR basics and of what to expect from EDR solutions.
I think an additional chapter to focus on the differences between "old anti-malware" and EDR solutions could have been benefitial to clear what especially the new parts are that EDR brings into the fight. Could you provide sources to e.g. the Gartner report where the capabilities have been defined?
Subscribed to your channel and will surely watch some of your past videos! You have a great way to provide overview about such a broad and complex topic

Thanks very much, Freka!

Recently joined in IT as a Assistant System engineer as my project is on XDR tool in cyber security,as I'm not from the IT background could I able to understand the things without knowing any practical work?

[@stevemurphy2347]

This is a great learning opportunity! XDR touches all other platforms. Yes, you can make a significant contribution without being technical. Be sure to ask your technical counterparts their opinions. Good luck! Steve

What extend edr will reduce the siem load?..

[@stevemurphy2347]

You can eliminate ingestion of your endpoint logs from the SIEM if you have an EDR. That will save a considerable amount of money, but result in a gap in visibility.

[@alexbarraza4275]

great introduction about EDR, you said what I needed to know, thank you!

You are so welcome! Thank you for leaving the comment. Best, Steve

Hii steve i am a work from home professional few days back our IT team made us installed EDR(Crowdstrike) in our personal laptops to track whether we are working on not,i am little concern after installing it,because i am working from my personal system so can they track what we are personally doing in our laptop,is it a threat to our personal access,please help

[@stevemurphy2347]

Hello, I don't know your company's configuration, so I cannot say for certain. I would be concerned if my company had an EDR on my personal computer. In theory, they can track the websites you visit. Crowdstrike will not record the contents of webpages you visit, but it can record the URLs. You may be able to shut it down when you are not on company time, but that is subject to you remembering to do so. On the positive side, you now have an enterprise class EDR protecting your personal computer. Good Luck, Steve

[@vaibhavtaragi8021]

@@stevemurphy2347 Hii steve thanks for your replay actually our company also installed falcon software and i have checked in the properties of crowdstrike under general security option system option is selected

Does EDR cover job of HIDS?

[@stevemurphy2347]

Generally, yes. EDRs provide intrusion detection. There are so many alternatives, I can't provide a definitive answer. Best, Steve

[@isoman2kx654]

Great video Steve and great channel. Would love to connect with you on LinkedIn as I'm a cybersecurity professional that's new to the industry!

[@stevemurphy2347]

Sounds great! I accepted your connectino request.
