NDR Essentials and Active threat intelligence

Network Detection and Response (NDR) is a category of network security products designed to detect abnormal traffic patterns to help identify active adversaries operating on your network. Even skilled attackers need to move across or communicate out of your network to carry out an attack. NDR uses sensors to monitor and analyze your network traffic to identify suspicious activity.
