Managed Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a cybersecurity service that monitors and analyzes endpoint activity to detect and respond to threats in real-time. Unlike traditional antivirus solutions, managed EDR services offer advanced threat detection by identifying suspicious behavior—not just the tell-tale signs of known malware. Huntress's Managed EDR service takes this a step further by providing continuous oversight and expert analysis through a <a href="https://www.huntress.com/why-huntress/24-7-soc" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" style="font-size: 16px;">24/7 Security Operations Center (SOC)</a>, ensuring that your systems are protected from both known and any new emerging threats.

What is the difference between EDR and MDR?

EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) is a technology that helps analysts detect, investigate, and respond to endpoint threats that get past automated defenses like antivirus. MDR (Managed Detection and Response), on the other hand, is a broader service that focuses on the management and monitoring of tools like EDR, including investigating alerts and responding to incidents. Managed Detection and Response services from Huntress include proactive 24x7 monitoring, threat hunting, and incident response with support from a dedicated SOC team. Here’s another way to look at it: EDR is a tool, while MDR is a fully managed service that leverages EDR as part of a broader security solution.

What problems does Huntress Managed EDR service solve?

Huntress Managed EDR solves several cybersecurity challenges, including the detection and remediation of both known and unknown threats that traditional security measures can often miss. It also addresses the necessity of continuous monitoring and expert analysis, ensuring your business is protected around the clock. Huntress Managed EDR also helps reduce the noise of false positives, streamlines security management, and minimizes the risk of breaches by providing real-time threat detection and response—all while offering clear, predictable pricing without any hidden costs.
