Frequently Asked Questions
What is Bitdefender XDR Sensor Network?
It is a software component that extends Bitdefender's Extended Detection and Response (XDR) capabilities to your network infrastructure. It analyzes network traffic to detect and prevent advanced threats.
How does this differ from endpoint security?
While endpoint security focuses on individual devices, the network sensor analyzes traffic flowing between devices and across your network. This provides a broader view and detects threats that might not be visible at the endpoint level.
Is this a cloud-based or on-premises solution?
The sensor itself is deployed within your network environment to capture traffic, but it reports to and is managed through the Bitdefender cloud-based XDR platform.
