VMware Carbon Black EDR
Advanced threat hunting and incident response.
Overview
VMware Carbon Black EDR is a highly-scalable, real-time endpoint detection and response solution. It is designed for security operations centers (SOCs) and incident response (IR) teams, providing them with continuous, unfiltered endpoint data collection. This raw data allows threat hunters to ask detailed questions and trace the root cause of attacks. While primarily a tool for skilled security teams, it can be augmented by VMware's Managed Detection and Response service for 24/7 expert monitoring.
