Endpoint detection and response (EDR) and segmentation are both essential security tools that continue to provide value to customers, and both are enjoying growing adoption rates. However, vendors within each category often market similar benefits for customers — namely, protection against ransomware and zero-day threats. \r\n \r\nSo, what are the similar challenges that EDR and segmentation both tackle, and how does their approach to solving those challenges differ? Read on to learn more. \r\n How are EDR and segmentation similar? \r\n EDR and segmentation solutions both offer pre-breach controls as well as post-breach mitigation measures. They are also both increasingly found in the same areas of the network, such as servers, cloud instances, end-user devices, and containers. Breaches are inevitable , and both solutions can mitigate or reduce the impact of breaches before they cause extensive damage throughout the network.…
