However, XDR can also mean vendor lock-in and settling for some products that aren\u2019t best of breed. Whether you choose a single solution or assemble a comprehensive one yourself will hinge on your own security needs and level of staff expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the existing security stack, XDR offers administrators central management and visibility of hybrid environment security solutions. These include endpoint detection and response (EDR), network detection and response (NDR), and managed detection and response (MDR).

Aside from company devices, XDR also covers networks, email, and cloud environments. This is beneficial for organizations that want to reduce security silos and correlate incidents that show up in different places but might actually be from the same threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Incident management and response<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Teams should not only be able to view the history of an incident \u2014 where the threat first originated and its progress through the network \u2014 but also have resources to mitigate it. Incident response includes halting executable processes and quarantining compromised applications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Customizable workflows<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While this seems like an industry buzzword at first glance, it just means the ability to design workflows for your security teams that make sense for your security infrastructure. If the XDR solution notices a particular behavior, it follows alert and response steps according to the workflow your team has developed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automation<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While automation can take different forms in an XDR environment, it&#8217;s a critical technology overall. Manual security is limited by human error but also by time constraints. IT and security personnel can&#8217;t be everywhere at once, and often automatic responses to threats are faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Integrations with other security products<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>XDR solutions shouldn&#8217;t be locked in to one particular vendor. While they should offer integrations within a vendor&#8217;s infrastructure, they should also provide connections with other products. Without those integrations, XDR will continue to silo threat data and prolong businesses&#8217; security challenges because they still don&#8217;t have all the information they need in one place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"how-to-choose\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How-to-Choose-an-XDR-Vendor\"><\/span>How to Choose an XDR Vendor<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Because it\u2019s a relatively new technology, the XDR market remains a work in progress. Several vendors continue to develop their XDR software as an extension of existing EDR tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re considering expanding your security infrastructure with an XDR platform, your business should evaluate the following points.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ask questions<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While evaluating XDR solutions, ask vendors the following questions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How does your XDR unite existing network software and their telemetry data?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How does your XDR leverage existing security investments?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Do your analytics combine insights from across attack vectors?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How completely can you automate security across control points?<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Why will I make better security decisions with your XDR?<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Know your budget<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>XDR solutions have a variety of price ranges, and your organization may not have the budget for one of the more expensive products. However, this doesn&#8217;t mean you&#8217;re getting a low-quality solution. Analyze your security budget before choosing an XDR, and ask vendors for specific pricing details to narrow your choices down to a few affordable options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Know your team<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some XDR solutions are better suited to small businesses, while others are a good choice for large enterprises with sizable IT and security teams. If you have a thin security department, a solution like Sophos would be a good choice. But if your IT and security teams are large and experienced, a tool like Cortex XDR will provide suitable customizability and range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"faqs\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Frequently-Asked-Questions-FAQs\"><\/span>Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Potential users and security professionals ask the following questions to learn more about XDR solutions and their benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the advantage of XDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Because XDR solutions combine threat insights from multiple sources in your business&#8217;s infrastructure, they&#8217;re more comprehensive than standalone EDR or NDR solutions. However, they must be properly configured and used for your IT and security teams to gain the most accurate and useful information.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between XDR and EDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While EDR mainly deals with endpoint security and incident response, XDR extends to other components of the infrastructure, including networks and email accounts. Many EDR solutions have XDR capabilities and vice versa, which can make buying decisions confusing. But if you&#8217;re searching specifically for an XDR product, look for protective features for network and cloud assets as well as just endpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What is the difference between XDR and MDR?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>MDR is a managed service for businesses that want threat intelligence and insights, as well as incident response, handled by an external team. Vendors that offer MDR perform threat analysis and handle security incidents for their customers, a good choice for businesses that have limited IT or security teams. MDR can cover both EDR and XDR services \u2014 it just depends on the capabilities in each individual vendor&#8217;s MDR offering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"bottom-line\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bottom-Line-The-Best-XDR-Solutions\"><\/span>Bottom Line: The Best XDR Solutions<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Extended detection and response helps businesses manage a variety of security assets, not just endpoints. In addition to greater ease of management, knowing how threats connect within different parts of your infrastructure helps security teams better understand how incidents originate and develop.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s also important to keep in mind that XDR won&#8217;t automatically catch and detain all threats. It must be configured, studied, and used before it can become a consistent and effective tool in your organization&#8217;s arsenal of security solutions. It should also work well with any <a href=\"https:\/\/www.esecurityplanet.com\/networks\/types-of-network-security\/\">existing security tools<\/a> so your business can improve its overall security posture.<br><strong>Read about the <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.esecurityplanet.com\/networks\/siem-vs-soar-vs-xdr\/\"><strong>differences between XDR, SIEM, and SOAR<\/strong><\/a><strong> next.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"ta-campaign-widget-66d6c7e86e1e5-popup-wrapper\" class=\"ta-campaign-widget__popup-wrapper\">\n    \n<div\n    style=\"\n        --ta-campaign-plugin-primary: #3545ed;\n        --ta-campaign-plugin-button-text: #fff;\n        --ta-campaign-plugin-button-hover-background: #3231b4;\n        --ta-campaign-plugin-button-hover-text: #fff;\n        --ta-campaign-plugin-button-toggle-background: #3231b4;\n        --ta-campaign-plugin-button-toggle-text: #3231B4;\n    \"\n    data-ajax-url=\"https:\/\/www.esecurityplanet.com\/wp\/wp-admin\/admin-ajax.php\">\n    <div\n        id=\"ta-campaign-widget-66d6c7e86e1e5\"\n        class=\"ta-campaign-widget ta-campaign-widget--popup\"\n        data-campaign-fields='{\"properties\":{\"campaign_type\":\"popup\",\"campaign_category\":false,\"sailthru_list\":[\"cybersecurity-insider\"],\"popup_type\":\"exit_intent\",\"appearance\":{\"colors\":{\"primary_color\":\"#3545ed\",\"button\":{\"button_text_color\":\"#fff\",\"hover\":{\"button_hover_background_color\":\"#3231b4\",\"button_hover_text_color\":\"#fff\"},\"toggle\":{\"button_toggle_background_color\":\"#3231b4\",\"button_toggle_text_color\":\"#3231B4\"}}},\"custom_scss\":\"\"},\"behavior\":{\"opt_in_enabled\":true},\"language\":{\"tagline\":\"Get the Free Cybersecurity Newsletter\",\"subtagline\":\"\",\"content\":\"Strengthen your organization&#39;s IT security defenses by keeping up to date on the latest cybersecurity news, solutions, and best practices.
