The importance of integrations
Most organizations rely on tools from multiple vendors to build out their entire security infrastructure, so they tend to have several standalone solutions with little to no integration or shared telemetry.
Bad integration limits the amount of telemetry and intelligence shared, making it impossible to create a single, context-rich view. If you can't see all the threats across the entire enterprise, how can your team effectively mitigate risks at scale, or even at all?
An effective XDR that integrates solutions across the security stack makes it easier for analysts to focus on comprehensive threat detection, prioritizing incident response, and improving productivity.
"To be truly effective, cybersecurity vendors must be open to sharing data and context so that advanced analytics across as many vectors as possible can rapidly detect and respond to the world’s most sophisticated threat actor groups."
– AJ Shipley, VP of Product Management for Threat Detection and Response, Cisco
