WatchGuard EDR
Endpoint Security Your Way. Unified Security Platform.
Overview
WatchGuard EDR is an endpoint detection and response solution designed to be managed within the WatchGuard Cloud platform. This allows MSPs to manage endpoint security alongside network security (Fireboxes), MFA (AuthPoint), and secure Wi-Fi from a single pane of glass. The EDR solution focuses on continuously monitoring endpoints, detecting advanced threats, and providing tools for investigation and response. It is built on technology from the Panda Security acquisition and offers a Zero-Trust Application Service and a Threat Hunting Service.
