Endpoint Detection and Response That Helps You Act on Threats
Endpoint detection and response gives your business greater visibility into activity across supported computers and other endpoints. Instead of relying only on basic antivirus alerts, EDR helps surface suspicious behavior that may require investigation. Lithic makes that information easier to understand and helps your team take practical next steps.
Endpoint Threats Can Escalate Before Anyone Notices
Suspicious activity is harder to contain when endpoint security provides limited visibility or alerts lack clear ownership.
Limited Endpoint Visibility
Basic security tools may not provide enough context to explain unusual activity on a device. Without better visibility, your team can struggle to determine whether an alert requires immediate attention.
Alerts Without Direction
An alert is only useful when someone understands what it means and what should happen next. Unclear ownership can delay investigation while employees and systems remain exposed to disruption.
Changing Attack Methods
Threats do not always arrive as an obvious malicious file. Attackers may use legitimate tools, compromised accounts, or unusual processes that require behavioral context to identify.
Downtime and Disruption
A compromised endpoint can interrupt employee workflows and create wider business risk. Delayed detection may increase the time and effort required to investigate, contain, and recover from an incident.
A Clearer Way to Monitor and Respond to Endpoint Activity
Lithic combines endpoint visibility with friendly, knowledgeable support so security events become actionable rather than confusing.
Continuous Endpoint Monitoring
EDR examines activity across supported endpoints for behavior that may indicate a threat. This ongoing visibility helps uncover suspicious patterns that traditional prevention tools may miss.
Better Alert Context
Security information is more useful when it explains what happened, where it occurred, and why it matters. We help translate technical findings into clear business decisions.
Informed Threat Response
When suspicious activity appears, available endpoint data can support investigation and containment decisions. Our approach focuses on practical actions that reduce uncertainty without making unrealistic prevention promises.
Security That Fits Your Business
Endpoint protection should reflect how your people, devices, and workflows operate. We assess your environment and align EDR with your wider cybersecurity and managed IT needs.

Endpoint Detection and Response FAQs
What Is Endpoint Detection and Response?
Endpoint detection and response, commonly called EDR, monitors activity on supported computers and endpoints for signs of suspicious behavior. It records useful context that can help investigate security alerts. EDR supports detection and response, but no security tool can eliminate every cyber risk.
How Is EDR Different From Traditional Antivirus?
Traditional antivirus commonly focuses on identifying known malicious files, while EDR provides broader visibility into endpoint behavior. That added context can help identify unusual processes, account activity, or attack patterns that need investigation. The two capabilities may work together as part of a layered security approach.
Is EDR the Same as Managed Detection and Response?
No, EDR is the endpoint-focused technology and data used to detect and investigate suspicious activity. Managed detection and response typically adds ongoing analysis and response support across security information. Lithic can help determine which level of service fits your operational needs and available internal resources.
Which Businesses Should Consider EDR?
EDR may benefit businesses that depend on computers, specialized software, and access to sensitive information for daily operations. Lithic works with organizations ranging from 1 to 150 employees, including legal, healthcare, financial, construction, and professional services firms. The appropriate setup depends on your devices, workflows, risk exposure, and existing security controls.
How Much Does EDR Cost?
Pricing depends on the number of covered devices, the required service scope, and how EDR fits into your broader IT environment. Lithic uses per-device pricing for applicable services, helping businesses plan around the endpoints they need to protect. An initial meeting and audit provide the information needed to prepare an appropriate quote.
What Happens During EDR Onboarding?
We begin by reviewing your current environment, business needs, and existing endpoint protections. We then define the devices and service scope before planning deployment and onboarding. The goal is to introduce stronger endpoint visibility while limiting unnecessary disruption to your team.
