Enterprises are increasingly adopting more complex security architectures that include multiple layers of protection to empower their security team and keep up with ever-increasing advanced threats. While this approach can help protect against sophisticated attacks, it also makes it difficult to correlate events across different components of the architecture. As such, enterprises need to simplify their security architecture so they can gain better visibility into what’s going on at each level within their environment.
According to a survey conducted by Enterprise Strategy Group, The Impact of XDR on the Modern SOC, most respondents believe that XDR solutions offer significant benefits for organizations when implemented correctly.

Growing complexity in the threat landscape: Threat actors continue to evolve and cyber attacks continue to increase in complexity, making it harder to keep up with an ever-changing threat landscape to identify complex attacks.
Silos of security data: Security teams continue to work in silos, implementing tools, processes, and initiatives without effectively working cross-functionally.
Overwhelming amounts of alerts: Analysts are suffering from alert fatigue, chasing false positives from security controls not fine-tuned for their environment, affecting their detection and response capabilities.
