Integrate Mendel with Your XDR Platform

XDR (eXtended Detection and Response) platforms promise organizations a unified solution, integrating your various cybersecurity tools into one place to provide you with a centralized view for enhanced threat detection and faster incident response. However, XDR often heavily relies on Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), resulting in blind spots in your network visibility and insufficient protection of OT and IoT.

Unlock XDR’s Potential with GREYCORTEX Mendel

Mendel completes your XDR solutions by providing with comprehensive visibility into your network activities, empowering you with informed decision-making and effective threat detection. Mendel enriches your XDR ecosystem with crucial network data, serving as a vital source for detecting suspicious and malicious activities such as forbidden data transfers and abnormal device behavior. It means you can cover devices where your EDR solutions cannot be installed, including outdated or legacy systems, OT, and IoT devices.

Mendel enables you to:

  • - Have complete network visibility by enriching your XDR with network flow data. 
  • - Identify performance issues within your network, applications, or services. 
  • - Streamline data correlation and cross-verify information for informed decision-making. 
  • - Leverage historical data for comprehensive security investigations. 
  • - Substitute complex integrations with other tools, offering you a high-quality data feed.

Gain Network-Level Visibility

With Mendel as a data source, you can enrich your XDR platform with network data, eliminating security blind spots in your infrastructure. Mendel allows you to track real-time changes happening in your networks, identifying anomalous network behavior. This holistic visibility extends to diverse devices, including those with outdated operating systems, printers, HVAC systems, cameras, lighting, and other devices within OT/ICS networks and IoT networks, where EDR agents cannot be installed. By providing you insights into all network activities, Mendel ensures that no potential threat goes unnoticed.

Correlate Data for Precise Threat Detection

Mendel’s advanced network analytics streamline the data correlation process, empowering both XDR solutions and security analysts. By cross-verifying information, Mendel enables more informed threat detection and decision-making. You can leverage Mendel to compare data from various sources, including endpoints, cloud platforms, and other tools. Additionally, Mendel offers a third-party perspective to next-generation endpoint protection and EDR solutions, providing comprehensive insights for effective security measures.

Conduct Investigations Using Historical Data

Mendel stores data for extended periods, tailored to your specific needs. With this historical data, you can conduct thorough back-in-time analysis for security investigations, uncovering malicious activities and searching for known Indicators of Compromise (IOCs). This capability is crucial for tracking attack lifecycles and identifying threats early in their development. By leveraging Mendel’s comprehensive data repository, security teams can make more informed decisions and strengthen their organization’s security posture.

Automize Incident Response for your XDR

Mendel can help with the automatization process of the threat mitigation for XDR platforms.   Integrating Mendel with firewalls enables the blocking of malicious communication with the Internet. Additionally, through integration with NAC (Network Access Control), you can send compromised devices to VLAN quarantine, restrictive VLAN, or even disconnect them from the network.

Build a Robust XDR with GREYCORTEX Mendel

Unlock the full potential of your XDR ecosystem by integrating Mendel for unparalleled
network visibility. With Mendel’s network analytics and threat detection, you can stay ahead 
of emerging threats and protect your network with confidence.

NDR as a Fundamental Data Source for Any XDR

In situations with limited resources and complex integrations for hybrid XDR implementation, NDR (Network Detection and Response) solutions like Mendel can be high-quality data feed. Mendel can serve as a substitute for other security tools, reducing the need for costly integration. Solely based on network data and logs, Mendel can provide a comprehensive understanding of what is happening in your infrastructure and detect malicious activities across various devices, including printers, scanners, IP cameras, and servers.
