What is Open XDR?

August 5, 2024 | 1 MIN READ

An Open Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platform integrates your existing security toolset. Rather than restricting you to work with a specific vendor, an Open XDR platform allows your team to take advantage of various best-of-breed technology partners and choose a vendor that’s the best fit for your specific organizational needs.

The Difference Between Open XDR and Native XDR

An Open XDR platform allows flexibility of integration with various tools and technology. On the other hand, Native XDR platforms are typically a closed ecosystem limited to a single vendor's technology, tools, and data sources. The restricted integration opportunities may limit service effectiveness in diverse technological environments.
