Global cyber security leader ESET has been included among 29 vendors in Forrester’s Now Tech: Enterprise Detection and Response Q1 2020 report. The report provides an overview of the technology players in the EDR market and offers insights into understanding their capabilities. Security and risk professionals can use the report to determine the value they can expect from an enterprise detection and response provider and to select one based on size and functionality. Especially in these challenging times, detection & response capabilities are necessary to ensure business continuity.
ESET has been included in the report as an Enterprise Architecture EDR solution, as classified by the architectural decisions behind the product that are designed to provide sub-second behavioral detection and response on the endpoint itself, improving endpoint protection capabilities and offline protection.
Key takeaways from the report include:
- A key benefit of EDR products is the ability to hunt for indications that an adversary has eluded your security controls and is lying in the weeds of your infrastructure.
- Each provider in this market has a unique industry focus, geographic footprint, and a set of core competencies, leading to different engagement models that suit a variety of customer needs.
Kelly Johnson, ESET Australia Country Manager, says ESET’s inclusion in the Forrester Now Tech report is recognition of ESET’s standing in the EDR market. “Protecting our customers against the very advanced and rapidly evolving threats seeking to penetrate their businesses is central to our mission. Particularly in the radically changed work environment we’ve all been working under, ensuring that your business has the tools necessary to detect and respond quickly to threats targeting endpoint devices is more necessary than ever. We believe security and risk professionals will find ESET’s innovative EDR offerings provide the high level of protection they need.”
