The Future of XDR: Separating Utopia from Reality | WWT Experts

Event Overview

The rapid adoption of distributed workforce models has created a gap between IT and security when it comes to endpoints. In fact, a recent Ponemon Institute survey found half of today's enterprise endpoints are vulnerable to attack while more than a quarter of organizations lack visibility into what is happening at their endpoints. How can we get out of this mess? Join WWT Executive Security Advisor John Aplin as he talks about the importance of taking a platform mentality when it comes to extended detection and response (XDR). John also discusses how XDR serves as a natural extension to EDR, helps draw the line between XDR marchitecture and reality, and identifies best practices he's seeing in the market today for moving toward an XDR approach.
