EDR
Monitoring software installed on the company's computers that spots and blocks suspicious behaviour.
An EDR goes further than a classic antivirus: instead of only recognising known viruses, it continuously watches what happens on workstations and servers to detect any abnormal behaviour. It also allows a fast response and an investigation after an incident. It is a tool for security professionals.
