    Next EDR Optimum

    Agile EDR for lean teams — IoC scanning, guided response, adaptive anomaly control.

    Kaspersky Next EDR Optimum gives small and mid-sized teams unmatched threat visibility, IoC scanning, rapid investigation, and guided response that adapts to neutralise evasive threats fast. It pairs strong endpoint protection with enhanced controls, patch and encryption management, cloud security, and built-in cyber training — without the resource weight of building those capabilities in-house. Faltrox operates it as a managed service.

    Overview

    What Next EDR Optimum is

    Small and mid-sized businesses are prime targets, and stopping advanced threats takes more than basic endpoint protection — it requires detection, investigation, and rapid response. Building that in-house is complex and resource-heavy for a growing organisation, which is exactly the gap Kaspersky Next EDR Optimum is built to fill: streamlined, adaptable EDR for smaller cybersecurity teams.

    It layers essential EDR — IoC and custom-IoC scanning, root-cause analysis, and adaptive anomaly control — on top of enhanced endpoint protection, and adds patch and encryption management, Microsoft 365 and cloud protection, and built-in cyber training for IT staff. It deploys in the cloud for lower total cost of ownership or on-premises for full control, and upgrades smoothly to XDR or MXDR. Faltrox runs it so a lean team gets enterprise-grade response.

    How it works

    The mechanism

    How the product moves from signal to protected state, step by step.

    1. 01

      Auto-Stop

      The solution automatically stops millions of common threats before they reach an analyst.

    2. 02

      Auto-Respond

      Automated response neutralises a range of evasive threats without human involvement.

    3. 03

      Detect

      Semi-automated detection and IoC scanning surface advanced threats for the team to review.

    4. 04

      Investigate

      Root-cause analysis reconstructs the incident so the team understands its full scope.

    5. 05

      Respond & Close

      Guided response tools help the team act on the incident and close it with confidence.

    Capabilities

    Key capabilities

    Enhanced Anti-Malware

    AI-powered endpoint protection with behavioural detection stops attacks before damage is done.

    IoC & Custom IoC Scanning

    Scan the estate for indicators of compromise, including your own custom IoCs, to find hidden threats.

    FAQ

    Common questions

    01Who is Optimum for?

    Small and mid-sized businesses with lean cybersecurity teams that want to scale detection, investigation, and response without added complexity or hiring. It sits between Foundations (essential EDR) and Expert (enterprise EDR/XDR).

    02What does "guided response" actually do?

    It provides automated and semi-automated response steps that adapt to the threat, so a smaller team can act on an evasive incident quickly without deep in-house expertise. The solution handles common threats automatically and guides the team through the rest.

    03Does it cover Microsoft 365?

    Yes — it secures cloud services and Microsoft Office 365 usage to reduce your attack surface and block threats before they cause harm.

    04Can we upgrade later?

    Yes. Optimum enables a smooth upgrade to essential XDR or MXDR for more sophisticated operations, so you are not locked out of advanced capability as you grow.

    05How does Faltrox deliver it?

    We deploy Optimum (cloud or on-premises), tune the controls and adaptive anomaly policies, and run the detection and guided-response workflow — so your lean team gets managed EDR rather than another console to staff.
