Endpoint sensor detection and response

Sends activity data for state-of-the-art threat detection and alerts (required for
advanced XDR detections and Workbench alerts)
The detection and response feature collects endpoint activity data that helps provide
alerts and enhanced investigation data whenever a suspected attack occurs. The collected
data is also used by Attack Surface Risk Management
applications to help identify risky endpoint and user behavior, and to identify endpoint
vulnerabilities.

|
Advanced risk telemetry
|
Analyzes endpoints for potential security posture weaknesses and performs vulnerability
assessments for zero-day threats
The advanced risk telemetry feature collects data that specifically helps detect zero-day
threats and identify weaknesses in your endpoint, user, and security configuration
settings.
