The XDR Payoff: Better Security Posture

SHARE

The advent of cross-controls detection and response (known as XDR) creates a new opportunity for security teams to gain leverage. Building on the learnings from endpoint detection and response (EDR), XDR analyzes security telemetry across endpoint, network, email, and cloud security controls to provide broader visibility in modern, complex attacks. XDR further promises efficiency gains, helping more junior security analysts address a larger percentage of attacks without escalation to limited, senior security resources.

As the XDR movement gains momentum, organizations are hungry to understand and quantify how and why XDR can make a difference to rationalize investments. To answer this question, Trend Micro and ESG recently completed a research study to identify organizations utilizing techniques similar to those that XDR solutions bring to the table. These techniques include automating the aggregation, correlation, and analysis of security data across multiple security controls to detect and respond to modern threats. The research identifies specific positive business outcomes achieved by these organizations and explores related outcomes for organizations that are not following these practices.
