NetWitness Launches Comprehensive XDR Offerings for Next Generation Security

NetWitness, a provider of cybersecurity technologies and incident response, has recently announced NetWitness XDR, a family of products and capabilities delivering comprehensive detection and response on-premise, in the cloud, or as a hybrid of the two.

NetWitness XDR delivers a set of capabilities enabling extended detection and response (XDR) and helping customers stay ahead of the cyber threats, which include:

• Unified collection, data, and visibility across multiple security layers
• Automatic enrichment of data using any technical or business source
• A toolset of detection technologies, including behavioral analysis
• External and internal threat intelligence
• Threat hunting tools and methodologies
• Repeatable and measurable incident investigation and response processes
• Both automated and human response options

Martin Sutherland, NetWitness General Manager of Middle East, Turkey, and Africa said, “we can streamline the complexities of managing a cybersecurity strategy and provide a cost-effective fully featured architecture with fewer requirements for managing, training, and integration.”

Under this new model, NetWitness XDR will be comprised of three main product lines that showcase its uniquely powerful support for all XDR use cases. NetWitness Platform XDR 12 is the newest major release of NetWitness Platform. This technology stack, typically deployed as customer-managed software or hosted by MSSPs, has been enhanced to focus on detection capabilities that identify threats faster and decrease their impact. The company’s new cloud-native SaaS version will be known as NetWitness Vision XDR and is currently in the design preview. The third product line, NetWitness XDR Cloud Services, is a set of optional SaaS applications that take advantage of the cloud’s inherent elastic nature to deliver flexible and cost-effective components which can be used to augment either Platform XDR or Vision XDR.
