Security teams have been dealing with tool sprawl for years. You have an EDR. You have a SIEM. You have a SOAR. You have a cloud security platform. Each tool has its own data model, its own console, its own alert queue. Correlating signal across them is a manual, error-prone process, and it's one of the main reasons that mean time to respond is still measured in hours at most organizations. Today we're fixing that for endpoint security.
Key takeaways:
- Alaris EDR is endpoint detection and response built natively into the Alaris platform, not an acquisition or integration.
- Unlike traditional EDR tools, Alaris EDR shares the same data model and AI reasoning layer as the rest of the platform.
- Endpoint telemetry from Alaris EDR automatically enriches every investigation, alert, and behavioral baseline in the platform.
- Available now for enterprise customers; general availability in Q2 2026.
What We Built, and Why
Alaris EDR isn't a new product category in our portfolio. It's an expansion of the core Alaris platform to include native endpoint telemetry collection and response. The distinction matters.
Traditional EDR tools were built as standalone products and later integrated into broader platforms, which means data from the EDR has to be normalized, deduplicated, and correlated with data from other tools before it's useful for investigations or behavioral analysis. That process introduces latency, data quality issues, and engineering burden.
Alaris EDR was built on the same data model as the rest of the platform from day one. Endpoint telemetry, process execution, file events, network connections, registry changes, flows directly into the same behavioral models, knowledge graph, and AI reasoning layer that power everything else. There's no separate normalization step. The data is immediately useful.
What This Looks Like in Practice
- An endpoint alert automatically has full user behavior context, cloud activity, and network telemetry attached, before an analyst looks at it
- Behavioral baselines for devices are built from endpoint telemetry alongside network and identity data, giving a more complete picture of what's normal
- Response actions, isolate host, kill process, revoke token, are executed from the same unified actions framework used for every other response in the platform
- Endpoint forensics data is automatically incorporated into investigation timelines without manual correlation
Key Capabilities at Launch
Real-Time Threat Prevention
Alaris EDR includes signature-based and AI-behavioral prevention engines running on the endpoint. Both engines benefit from the same threat intelligence and model updates that power cloud-side detection, with on-device processing for prevention that works even when the endpoint is offline.
Native Response Integration
Host isolation, process termination, memory dumps, forensic collection, all available through the Alaris Unified Actions Framework. This means response to endpoint threats follows the same audit trail, approval workflow, and automation logic as any other response action in the platform.
Automated Investigation Context
Every endpoint alert automatically triggers an investigation enrichment pass that pulls in related cloud activity, identity events, lateral movement indicators, and historical behavior context. By the time an alert reaches an analyst, the context that used to take 20 minutes to assemble is already there.
In our early access program, customers running Alaris EDR reported a 71% reduction in mean time to investigate endpoint alerts compared to their previous standalone EDR tool.
Availability and Pricing
Alaris EDR is available now for enterprise customers under an early access program. General availability is planned for Q2 2026. Pricing is per-endpoint and is included in the Alaris Enterprise Platform tier, there's no separate EDR license.
Existing Alaris customers can request early access through their customer success manager. New customers can reach out to our sales team to include EDR in their evaluation.
We'll be publishing a technical deep dive on the Alaris EDR architecture next month. If you want to be notified when it's available, follow the Alaris blog or subscribe to our security research newsletter.
