Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)
Platforms detecting and investigating threats on endpoints in real time.
Market snapshot
These figures describe Endpoint Security (9.1.4), the segment that Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) sits within. They are not figures for Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) on its own.
Not separately classified. Endpoint is where the security market's consolidation is most visible: agent-based detection became a platform land grab, because whoever owns the agent owns the telemetry everything else is priced from. Standalone endpoint vendors face the hardest path to independence of any segment here.
