Security Benefits Integrating Identity with Detection and Response

Identity plays a central role in cyber attacks, and it offers a window of opportunity for organizations to detect and respond to security incidents in a timely manner. But finding attacks based on authentication data is hard: it requires knowledge, context, the ability to link authentication data to insight from other security and IT tools, and the ability to sort through mountains of false alerts. Extended Detection and Response - XDR - is an emerging security capability that was developed to connect data from multiple sources and apply out of the box detection and response modules to help security teams effectively identify and stop attacks.
