Fragmented visibility \u2013 a byproduct of siloed security tools \u2013 is a major problem for security teams. The obvious solution is to simplify your security operations with fewer tools that offer broader capabilities \u2013 such as XDR, which delivers detection and response across endpoints, network and cloud assets. But this is easier said than done: organizations often have preset budgets for specific categories of tools.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Convincing multiple stakeholders to rethink their investment strategy can be difficult when you\u2019re talking about a category-defining solution. It can be much easier to purchase a narrowly focused tool than to build a business case for an emerging technology.<\/span><\/p>\n
