EDR assessment
April 2024–January 2025
I assessed endpoint detection, incident response and forensic investigation capabilities, along with integrations and performance. The aim was to understand how each product would support the SOC in daily use.
Assessment scope
| Area | Review question |
|---|---|
| Visibility | What endpoint activity is available to an analyst, and what is missing? |
| Investigation | Can an analyst follow a process, user and host across the incident? |
| Forensic collection | Which artifacts can be collected, under which permissions and constraints? |
| Integration | How does the product connect with case management and the wider monitoring stack? |
| Performance | What overhead and operational dependencies need to be considered? |
These questions describe the assessment scope; they are not a product ranking or a published benchmark.
