About the EDR Telemetry Project

EDR-Telemetry is an initiative by Defendpoint Consulting, designed to benchmark EDR products and show exactly what telemetry they capture. Our mission is to give organizations clarity on their visibility gaps and help them build stronger, evidence-based security strategies.

As part of Defendpoint Consulting's expertise, the project turns hands-on testing into practical guidance for defenders. We focus on repeatable benchmarking, transparent reporting, and advisory support that connects telemetry results to real-world security programs.

  • Identify platform strengths and weaknesses
  • Guide security professionals in tool selection
  • Promote transparency in EDR capabilities
