Network Detection and Response (NDR)

Network Detection and Response (NDR) extends visibility beyond endpoints by continuously analyzing network traffic to detect, investigate, and respond to advanced cyber threats that evade traditional security controls. As organizations adopt hybrid networks, cloud services, and encrypted traffic, prevention-only approaches such as firewalls and signature-based tools leave critical blind spots. NDR solutions are designed to close those gaps by delivering continuous, AI-driven network threat detection and rapid response across on-premises, cloud, and hybrid environments.
