The goal is not only to find unsanctioned AI use, but to control which GenAI and AI-enabled apps are allowed, blocked or monitored across the organization.

NGAV vs EDR vs XDR vs MDR: how to choose the right detection and response approach

NGAV (next-generation antivirus), EDR (endpoint detection and response), XDR (extended detection and response), and MDR (managed detection and response) are not four separate products bought independently — they are overlapping capabilities and delivery models. NGAV is a prevention capability, normally built into an endpoint protection platform or an EDR solution, that uses AI and behavioral analysis to block known and unknown threats.
