Frost states that XDR has three core promises: cross-layered detection and response, meaningful automation, and integration with the security stack.
“Hillstone Networks is committed to Open XDR, as it is investing its significant R&D budget in increasing third-party integrations and providing software development kits to facilitate integration with its platform,” said Lucas Ferreyra, Industry Analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
“Hillstone Networks has developed a compelling growth strategy, that involves leveraging the increasing relevance of managed security to allow MSSPs to use its XDR solution, broadening its reach while targeting high-growth sectors such as government, healthcare, education, and manufacturing. Such understanding of the market will allow Hillstone Networks to unlock further growth opportunities in the extremely competitive market of XDR,” Ferreyra added.
Hillstone’s commitment to innovation and client deployments contribute to its emergence as a frontrunner in the XDR domain, as well as delivering on the core promises of XDR:
- Hillstone’s AI-powered threat detection and response capabilities can find and mitigate attacks before they have a chance to exploit the most vital asset in the enterprise – data. The Hillstone XDR solution uses advanced machine learning (ML) algorithms through unknown malware and abnormal detection, advanced threat correlation analytics, and automatic threat mitigation.
- Hillstone XDR also includes automated orchestration and response. If a remediation strategy has been configured, once a threat is identified, Hillstone XDR will automatically execute the appropriate mitigation actions according to a predefined playbook.
- It includes integration with a wide variety of data across the full spectrum of the network, from endpoints to cloud. This data can include NetFlow, Sysmon, Syslogs, metadata, threat information and third-party logs, all of which are then standardized, correlated, and analyzed to provide complete visibility and break down security information silos. It not only brings full security visibility with far fewer blind spots, but also improves detection accuracy by minimizing false positives.
