XDR Alternatives and Comparison of XDR Platforms
Many organizations implemeting or outsourcing to an XDR (Extended Detection and Response) service or solution to help them reduce risks by responding to to threats faster, more efficiently.
XDR solutions are famously known to vary in their coverage and capabilities. Does the XDR include detection and response for Endpoints? Networks? Cloud? We believe it is critical that you and your team know how to review the XDR options available today.
- What does the solution cover? (Endpoint, Network, Cloud, Applictations)?
- Does the solution include modern AI/ML detection and response capabiltiies?
- How does the XDR solution augment or ingest data from your existing security tools?
- What level of correlation and situational awareness will your team have for alerts and incidents?
In this simple list of alternative XDR providers and you can see a great list of requirements, questions to ask and comparison points among providers.
We believe Seceon aiXDR and aiXDR-PMax provides the best platform that makes it efficient and effective to implement a comprehensive AI/ML powered XDR solution.
