This joint Cybersecurity Advisory identifies commonly exploited controls and practices and includes best practices to mitigate the issues.

Extended detection and response (XDR) collects threat data from previously siloed security tools across an organization's technology stack for easier and faster investigation, threat hunting, and response. An XDR platform can collect security telemetry from endpoints, cloud workloads, network email, and more. With all of this enriched threat data filtered and condensed into a single console, XDR enables security teams to rapidly and efficiently hunt and eliminate security threats across multiple domains from one unified solution.
