IBM QRadar EDR is an endpoint detection and response (EDR) product (formerly ReaQta) that focuses on behavioral detection, endpoint telemetry collection, investigation workflows (e.g., visual “behavioral tree” storylines), and response/containment actions (e.g., isolate endpoints, terminate processes). It is positioned both as:
- **A standalone EDR** for endpoint protection and investigation, and
- **A component in IBM’s broader QRadar Security Suite / XDR narrative**, especially when integrated with QRadar SIEM and SOAR.
IBM describes using kernel/OS-level behavioral monitoring and a “NanoOS” approach intended to increase resistance to attacker tampering, along with guided/automated remediation and features described as a “cyber assistant.” (Note: these are vendor claims; independent validation is limited in publicly accessible sources.)
