Frequently Asked Questions
What is Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR)?
ITDR is a cybersecurity discipline focused on detecting and responding to threats that target user identities and access credentials. It combines identity analytics with endpoint and network data to provide a holistic view of potential compromises.
