Make Evidence-Based EDR Decisions
Use vendor-neutral research to compare telemetry visibility, identify potential gaps, and plan environment-specific validation. Telemetry is one input to an EDR decision, not a measure of overall product quality.
Compare Depth & Coverage
Analyze capabilities using Scores and track historical change with Statistics.
Explore Signals
Deep dive into specific signals in Telemetry Categories and MITRE Mappings.
Check Eligibility
Review scope and inclusion rules in Eligibility to ensure fair comparison.
Empowering Security Teams with Transparency
The EDR Telemetry Project documents and compares endpoint telemetry exposed by EDR platforms under controlled, versioned test conditions. The public evidence helps practitioners understand visibility differences while preserving the limits of what telemetry scores can show.
Cross-platform telemetry coverage and depth analysis
Controlled activity and evidence-backed validation
Published methodology and community-informed research
Built for Security and Business Teams
Tailored insights for every stakeholder in the security lifecycle
Mid-sized Businesses
Validate telemetry readiness and reduce blind spots in your security posture.
Large Enterprises
Compare telemetry evidence across platforms and inform environment-specific validation.
Security Leaders
Communicate telemetry coverage and documented limitations to stakeholders.
Detection Engineers
Map exposed signals to MITRE ATT&CK and investigate visibility gaps.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the research vendor-neutral?
The project is vendor-agnostic and applies published evidence and methodology rules. Each result should be read with its documented validation path, configuration, and limitations.
Can we use this to guide procurement?
Use the platform scores, category depth, and eligibility criteria as one source of technical evidence. Telemetry visibility does not measure prevention, detection efficacy, operational fit, support quality, or overall product quality, so it should not determine a procurement decision by itself.
Do you offer help applying the benchmarks?
Yes. See Apply the Research for EDR validation, selection, and advisory support through Defendpoint Consulting.
