Supporting documentation is now available following our recently unveiled Cortex XDR product, the industry’s first detection and response product that spans multiple data sources. Cortex XDR stitches together your network, endpoint and cloud data to give you complete visibility over network traffic, user behavior, and endpoint activity. By natively stitching together all data at ingestion, Cortex XDR removes any blind spots in identifying potential threats, simplifies investigations with automated root-cause analysis, and applies the knowledge gained to secure the environment against future similar threats.
Cortex XDR comprises two applications:
Cortex XDR – Analytics (formerly known as Magnifier)
- Dive into the Cortex XDR – Analytics Release Notes for a closer look at the latest features, like using Traps endpoint activity data to detect anomalies for investigation.
- After the app begins analyzing your network behavior patterns, refer to the Cortex XDR – Analytics Administrator's Guide to understand more about the alerts indicating suspicious behavior.
Cortex XDR – Investigation and Response (for security operations teams)
- Take action to prevent future attacks, as described in the Cortex XDR – Investigation and Response Administrator's Guide. See the root cause of any threat, hunt for any bad behavior unique to your network and respond based on actionable intelligence to mitigate risk of active and future threats.
