Emerging Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solutions aim to aggregate and correlate telemetry from multiple detection controls and then synthesize response actions.
XDR has been referred to as the next step in the evolution of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions.
In fact, Gartner named XDR as the first of their Top 9 Security and Risk Trend for 2020.

Each provider approaches XDR with different strengths and perspectives on how what an XDR solution should include.
Therefore, selecting an XDR provider is quite challenging as organizations must organize and prioritize a wide range of capabilities that can differ significantly between providers.
Cynet is now addressing this need with the Definitive RFP Template for XDR solutions (download here), an expert-made security requirement list that enables stakeholders to accelerate and optimize the evaluation process of the…
