Extend beyond EDR to cover every attack surface

Endpoint protection covers approximately 40% of the typical enterprise environment, leaving network, identity and cloud surfaces exposed to attackers. Vectra AI provides the visibility you need to see and stop attackers evading your endpoint protection.

Extend beyond EDR to cover every attack surface

EDR evasion isn’t just possible — it’s common

As endpoint detection has become a mainstay for enterprises, attackers have evolved their methods to bypass EDR. Mounting evidence suggests it’s only one piece of the threat detection and response equation.

The Challenge

Endpoint security isn’t enough on its own

The average security team is responsible for more than 393,400 assets and attributes — it’s impossible to place EDR on every one. How will you account for unknown devices on the network? IoT? OT? Rogue devices? It’s time for a more comprehensive approach.

Best Practices

Filling EDR Visibility Gaps with the Vectra AI Platform

One study found 94% of popular EDRs are vulnerable to at least one common evasion technique. Download our best practices guide to see how the Vectra AI Platform fills the gaps.

The Solution

Integrated signal at speed and scale is the only answer

Powered by the industry’s most advanced Attack Signal Intelligence™, the Vectra AI Platform delivers the integrated signal you need to power XDR.

Power your XDR

Move at the speed and scale of hybrid attackers with one integrated signal across your network, identity and cloud attack surfaces.

Network

Expose unknown attackers hiding in your hybrid network with Vectra NDR to detect and disarm attacks in minutes.

Identity

Find the identity attacks EDR can’t with Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR) to stop attackers early and fast.

Cloud

Know when your Microsoft 365 is under attack with Cloud Detection and Response (CDR) to accurately reveal the earliest signs of compromise.

How it Works

We detect the attacks EDR can’t

Eight in ten security teams that conduct threat exposure assessments with Vectra AI find gaps in their endpoint protection.

Fill critical gaps with one integrated signal

Without a way to monitor vendor appliances and OT equipment, EDRs leave significant visibility gaps. The Vectra AI Platform reveals attackers that slipped past endpoint protection tools.

“Our executives wanted to know how we detected the attack so quickly and we told them — the answer is always the same, it was Vectra AI.”

Eliminate blind spots with comprehensive coverage

EDR tools don’t account for network, identity and cloud. With 12 references in the MITRE D3FEND framework — more than any other vendor — Vectra AI covers every attack surface.

“Every day is a race to stay ahead of threat actors. Vectra AI gives us a head start in the network and CrowdStrike speeds across the finish line at the endpoint.”

End the alert noise to know what’s urgent

Stop the stream of false positives. Thanks to Attack Signal Intelligence that understands your environment, you can trust Vectra AI to send only the alerts that matter.

“You don’t get many alerts, and if you get one, you better look at it because it is a good quality alert.”

FAQs

What's the difference between EDR and XDR?

Endpoint detection and response (EDR) monitors endpoints for threats on specific devices, such as laptops and smartphones. Extended detection and response (XDR) extends that visibility to multiple security layers, including endpoints as well as public cloud, identity, SaaS and data center networks. XDR provides a more holistic approach to cybersecurity, empowering security operations teams to detect, investigate and respond to attacks across multiple attack surfaces in real time.

Why do organizations need XDR?

Most enterprise assets and services won’t run an EDR agent — and many breaches don’t involve the compromise of an EDR-enabled endpoint. The modern hybrid enterprise must also continuously monitor cloud, identity, SaaS apps, and even OT/IoT networks. While EDR is still an important part of the security posture equation, XDR incorporates multiple security solutions to cover these additional attack surfaces.

Can XDR replace EDR?

No, but endpoint detection and response is a key component of XDR. While XDR significantly enhances an organization's security stack, it’s designed to complement rather than replace existing infrastructure. XDR integrates with multiple security tools, including EDR, to provide a more unified and effective defense strategy.

What's an example of EDR extension?

One common example of EDR extension is integrating an existing endpoint protection solution with a modern SOC platform that includes additional threat detection and response. By unifying endpoint threat intelligence with other detections across cloud, identity, SaaS apps and networks, the result is one integrated signal. This fills in the gaps left by EDRs, which on average cover less than half of the typical enterprise environment.

What’s next for EDR and XDR?

XDR will continue to increase in importance as attack surfaces expand and attackers adapt their methods. AI will play a critical role, as will advanced machine learning, since these capabilities allow security teams to automate the analysis of vast amounts of data. This, in turn, will increase the speed and accuracy of threat detection and response, allowing analysts to find and stop attacks in real-time.
