A corporation wants to upgrade their security capabilities by deploying a solution that can not only detect threats on individual devices but also aggregate and analyze security data from across the entire IT environment, including network and cloud sources. What is the most comprehensive option that this corporation should consider for enhanced threat detection and system-wide incident response?
The most comprehensive option for enhanced threat detection and system-wide incident response is Extended Detection and Response (XDR). XDR solutions expand on the functionality of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) by collecting and correlating data across various security layers such as, but not limited to, email, devices, servers, clouds, and networks. By providing this extensive visibility and correlation, XDR allows organizations to detect and respond to threats more efficiently than EDR, which focuses more narrowly on endpoint security. User and Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) is a security solution that focuses on understanding user behavior to detect anomalies that may indicate a threat, but does not offer the same breadth of correlation across environments. An Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) provides automatic protection against known threats by analyzing network traffic and blocking attacks in real-time, but like UEBA, it does not offer the comprehensive correlation capabilities of XDR.
