XDR vs. EDR Modern security with SonicWall 1 min read | Published on 16. September 2025 Vendor-News Cyber attacks are becoming more complex, more targeted and often take months to prepare. Traditional security approaches quickly reach their limits here. Two buzzwords are therefore particularly important at present: EDR (Endpoint Detection & Response) and XDR (Extended Detection & Response). EDR focuses on protecting individual endpoints. Suspicious activities such as unusual processes or zero-day malware are detected, analysed and can be isolated. This allows ransomware or phishing attacks to be stopped at an early stage. However, EDR is limited to end devices – attacks via the network, cloud or email remain out of sight. This is where XDR comes in. Extended Detection & Response expands the approach by consolidating security data from endpoints, networks, firewalls, cloud workloads and email. With the help of AI and centralised analysis, threats that often go undetected in isolated systems are identified. The result: greater transparency, fewer false alarms and significantly faster response times. If you are interested, our SonicWall-Team here for you. more information (PDF) SonicWall combines these strengths in an integrated portfolio: SonicWall Capture Client delivers powerful EDR with direct connectivity to firewalls and the Capture ATP malware analysis engine. Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection (RTDMI™) reliably detects even unknown threats, while rollback functions help combat ransomware. SonicWall XDR goes even further: all security-related events – from endpoints to the network to the cloud – converge on a central platform. This provides a complete overview and makes it easier for security teams to prioritise genuine threats. A special bonus: With the SonicWall Cyber Guarantee, companies are additionally protected – a clear sign of confidence in their own technology. Conclusion: EDR is mandatory, XDR is optional. With SonicWall, companies get both – practical, integrated and scalable. And thanks to the cyber guarantee, they also have the security of knowing they are financially protected in the event of an emergency. Back to the SonicWall News.
