In a world where cyber threats are constantly evolving and becoming more sophisticated, businesses need effective solutions to protect their systems and data. N-able offers a powerful combination of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) that provides comprehensive protection against today’s cyber threats. Let’s break down what each solution entails and how they function together as a bundled offering to maximize your cybersecurity.
What is N-able EDR?
N-able Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is a solution that focuses on protecting endpoints such as computers, servers, and other connected devices. EDR provides a range of features that enable rapid detection and handling of threats on these devices.
AI-driven threat detection: EDR uses artificial intelligence to continuously monitor and identify potential threats on each device.
Automatic recovery and rollback: If a device is infected or exposed to a threat, EDR can roll back the device to a previous safe state, ensuring a fast recovery without downtime.
Focus on individual devices: EDR protects each device individually, allowing threats to be identified and addressed on a per-device basis before they spread.
What is N-able MDR?
N-able Managed Detection and Response (MDR) takes a broader and more proactive approach to security. The service is not just about detecting and handling threats at the device level but also offers 24/7 support from security analysts who help detect and manage threats at a broader system level.
24/7 security monitoring: MDR offers 24/7 monitoring by expert analysts who can handle threats and incidents in real-time.
SIEM access and compliance: The MDR solution includes advanced Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), making it easier to adhere to security standards and regulations.
Proactive threat hunting: MDR involves security analysts actively seeking out threats and potential risks before they can cause damage.
Comprehensive data collection and reporting: MDR collects and analyzes data from various sources such as endpoints, networks, and system logs, providing comprehensive protection.

How do N-able EDR & MDR work together?
When you combine N-able EDR and N-able MDR, you get the best of both worlds. Each solution offers key functionalities, but together they create a robust defense against cyber threats.
EDR protects at the device level: With EDR, you get enhanced protection for each device in your network. It uses AI to detect and neutralize threats directly on the devices at risk. This allows each individual device to be quickly restored without affecting the rest of the system.
MDR provides overarching security: MDR complements EDR by taking a broader approach to security. By combining round-the-clock monitoring and expert threat detection, you gain deeper insight into the threat landscape at a larger system level. MDR also analyzes data from multiple sources, catching threats that might not be detected by EDR.
Proactive protection and reactive recovery: When a threat is detected by EDR, it can be immediately addressed through rollback and recovery. If the threat is more advanced or spreads through the network, MDR security analysts can intervene to stop the threat before it causes significant damage.
Better visibility and reporting: EDR provides detailed information on threats and security incidents at the device level, while MDR offers an overview of network and system logs. Together, they provide a complete picture of the entire security landscape, making it easier to identify vulnerabilities and take action before something goes wrong.
Benefits of using EDR & MDR as a bundle
Complete protection at all levels: EDR protects each device, while MDR handles threats at the network and system level, providing comprehensive protection.
Fast recovery and preventive actions: EDR restores devices quickly in the event of an attack, while MDR proactively monitors and handles threats before they can spread.
24/7 expert support: With MDR, you gain access to security analysts around the clock who handle threats that may not be detected by EDR.
Comprehensive data collection: Simultaneous data collection from both EDR and MDR ensures a more detailed and holistic view of your security posture.
A solution for all types of businesses
Whether you're managing small businesses that need protection from specific threats or a large organization with an extensive infrastructure, N-able EDR and MDR can be tailored to your needs. By combining the power of EDR's threat detection and rollback features with MDR's proactive security monitoring, you get a comprehensive solution that protects your clients' systems and data from all types of cyber threats.
