All vendors in this report have effective solutions for combating malicious attacks. Now that endpoint detection and response (EDR) is integrated into EPPs and evolving into extended detection and response (XDR), the main consideration for most buyers should be integration with security operations.
Strategic Planning Assumptions:
- By the end of 2025, 80% of Type C organizations will acquire endpoint detection and response (EDR) as a managed detection and response (MDR) service.
- By the end of 2025, more than 50% of Type B organizations will consolidate EDR into a preferred vendor portfolio of security investments for more efficient security operations.
- By the end of 2026, 80% of Type A organizations will be consuming EDR as part of a multitool extended detection and response (XDR) architecture.
Type A organizations are the smallest group of organizations, also known as “lean forward” organizations, adopt new technologies very early in the adoption cycle.
Type B organizations are the largest group of organizations. Type B aim to stay relatively current in terms of technology without getting too far ahead or behind their competitors.
Type C organizations are the second-largest group. Type C typically view technology as an expense or an operational necessity, and use it as a means to reduce costs.
