“I think I’m taking security measures, but I’m not sure if they’re really safe.” We hear this from many customers. Recently, there are an increasing number of cases <\/span><\/span>where<\/span> antivirus software alone is not enough<\/span><\/strong>, and EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) in particular is attracting attention. Cyber \u200b\u200battacks are becoming more sophisticated every day, and there are an increasing number of threats that cannot be prevented by traditional antivirus alone. EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) is a solution that continuously monitors endpoints (PCs, servers, mobile devices, etc.) and detects and responds to suspicious behavior.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\r\n
\r\n

\u25a0 <\/span><\/strong>What is EDR?<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

EDR is a security solution that monitors and records suspicious behavior occurring on endpoints (PCs, servers, etc.) and responds in real time.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

It is difficult to detect with conventional antivirus software.<\/span><\/p>\r\n

    \r\n
  • Ransomware<\/span><\/li>\r\n
  • Targeted attacks<\/span><\/li>\r\n
  • Fileless attacks<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n

    It is also characterized by its ability to handle the above attacks.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/div>\r\n

    \u25a0 <\/span><\/strong>\u00a0<\/span>Benefits of introducing EDR<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

      \r\n
    1. Real-time detection and immediate response<\/span><\/strong>\r\n
        \r\n
      • This can prevent the damage from spreading after infection. Also, only the infected PC is blocked from the network, so the virus does not infect other devices.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n
      • Investigating the cause of log accumulation<\/span><\/strong>\r\n
          \r\n
        • Accurately understand the attack route and scope of impact.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n
        • Strong in the era of teleworking<\/span><\/strong>\r\n
            \r\n
          • Supports on-premise and cloud, protecting devices outside the site as well.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n

            \u25a0 <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/strong>Recommended for these customers<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\r\n

              \r\n
            • I’m worried about relying too much on traditional antivirus software<\/span><\/li>\r\n
            • Many people work remotely, making device management complicated<\/span><\/li>\r\n
            • I want to outsource incident response or reduce my internal load<\/span><\/li>\r\n
            • Urgent need to respond to regulations and strengthen compliance<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n

              EDR’s strength is its defense and response capabilities under the assumption that an attack will occur. Traditional AV focuses on “prevention” and is low cost, but EDR enables practical responses to cyber attacks.<\/span><\/p>\r\n
