Key Takeaways
- Both modules available as standalone products with no full platform commitment required
- EDR covers behavioral detection, autonomous containment, and automated remediation
- CDR supports AWS, Azure, GCP, Kubernetes containers, and serverless functions
- Customers can upgrade to the full Alaris Enterprise Platform at any time
San Francisco, November 12, 2025, Alaris Security today announced the general availability of Alaris Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) and Alaris Cloud Detection & Response (CDR) as standalone products. Enterprise customers can now deploy either module independently, without requiring a full Alaris Enterprise Platform commitment, making autonomous threat prevention accessible to organizations at any stage of their security maturity journey.
Alaris EDR: Autonomous Endpoint Protection
Alaris EDR delivers AI-powered endpoint protection that goes far beyond traditional signature-based detection. The module continuously monitors endpoint activity using behavioral analysis and real-time threat intelligence to identify and respond to threats, including zero-day exploits, fileless malware, and living-off-the-land attacks, without requiring manual analyst intervention.
Key capabilities include:
- Behavioral Threat Detection: AI-driven analysis of process behavior, file system changes, network connections, and registry modifications to identify malicious activity that evades signature-based tools.
- Autonomous Containment: When a threat is confirmed, the agent can autonomously isolate the affected endpoint, terminate malicious processes, and quarantine suspicious files, all within milliseconds of detection.
- Automated Remediation: Post-containment cleanup including removal of persistence mechanisms, restoration of modified system files, and verification that the endpoint is clean before returning it to the network.
- Threat Intelligence Integration: Continuous enrichment from Alaris's threat intelligence feeds, providing real-time context on indicators of compromise, attacker TTPs, and emerging threat campaigns.
Alaris CDR: Autonomous Cloud Protection
Alaris CDR provides comprehensive cloud detection and response for multi-cloud and hybrid environments. Purpose-built for the complexity of modern cloud architectures, the module monitors workloads across AWS, Azure, and GCP, as well as containerized environments running on Kubernetes.
Key capabilities include:
- Multi-Cloud Visibility: Unified monitoring across all major cloud providers, with deep integration into cloud-native logging, identity services, and resource management APIs.
- Container & Serverless Security: Runtime protection for containers and serverless functions, detecting anomalous behavior, unauthorized access, and data exfiltration attempts.
- Cloud-Native Response: Autonomous response actions including network isolation of compromised instances, IAM policy enforcement, security group modification, and snapshot preservation for forensic analysis.
- Misconfiguration Detection: Continuous scanning of cloud configurations against security best practices and compliance frameworks, with automated remediation of common misconfigurations.
Standalone or Unified
Both Alaris EDR and CDR are available as standalone products with independent licensing and deployment. Organizations that deploy both modules benefit from correlated detection across endpoints and cloud infrastructure, with the ability to upgrade to the full Alaris Enterprise Platform at any time for a seamless transition.
“Not every organization is ready for a full platform transformation on day one, and that's perfectly fine. By offering EDR and CDR as standalone modules, we're giving security teams a way to experience the power of autonomous defense exactly where they need it most, and grow from there.”
Availability
Alaris EDR and Alaris CDR are available immediately for enterprise customers worldwide. Both modules support cloud-hosted and on-premises deployment, with flexible licensing based on the number of protected endpoints or cloud workloads.
