Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)

PLAIN-LANGUAGE DEFINITION · COLDRECON REFERENCE LIBRARY
Definition

What is Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)?

EDR is agent-based endpoint tooling that monitors process/file/network activity, detects malicious behavior, and enables response. It is detection-led by design: it observes and acts after code executes. Its efficacy depends on recognizing a threat, so novel/zero-day techniques are a window of exposure until detected.
