What is Qualys EDR
Qualys Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a cloud-based security solution that continuously monitors endpoint activity to detect malicious behavior, investigate security incidents, and respond to threats in real time. EDR captures detailed system events across endpoints to identify indicators of compromise (IoCs), confirm the presence of known and unknown malware, and support rapid investigation and remediation actions.
Built on the Qualys Cloud Platform, EDR uses the same single Qualys Cloud Agent already deployed for asset management, vulnerability assessment, and patching, eliminating the need for separate endpoint agents and consoles.
