EDR for SMBs

EDR for small business without standing up a SOC.

Continuous endpoint telemetry, behavior detection, remote isolation and a clear alert → evidence → containment path. Integrated with SIEM, email and automated response.

Evaluation criteria

EDR vs. what you probably already have.

Most small businesses already run antivirus. That's not EDR, and the gap between them is exactly where ransomware and account-compromise incidents live.

What it doesEDR (Protoxol)Traditional antivirus
Detects known malware signatures✓✓
Detects behavior — process execution, persistence, lateral movement✓×
Gives you a timeline of what happened, not just a block event✓×
Remote isolation of a compromised host, one click✓×
Correlates with SIEM and email signals automatically✓×

Why Protoxol.

·

One agent, pushed through your MDM

You deploy the EDR agent the way you push any other package: through the MDM or admin console you already use. Laptops that never come to the office get it on their next check-in.

·

Behaviour, with the timeline

The agent watches process execution, persistence, lateral movement and credential use. When something fires you get the sequence of events on that host, so you can see what ran before and after the alert.

·

Isolate one laptop, keep the office online

One click cuts a compromised host off the network while it stays reachable for investigation. Nobody else loses connectivity, and the isolation is reversible once you have confirmed containment.

·

Context from email and SIEM

If you also run email protection or SIEM & search, the EDR alert shows up with the phishing email and the sign-in events around it, on the same console. Activate those modules whenever you are ready; the EDR works alone until then.

·

Playbooks that ask before they act

Response automation runs with human approval by default. The playbook proposes the isolation or the account lock; your admin confirms it. You decide later which actions can run unattended.

·

Priced per endpoint, by plan

Starter covers up to 250 endpoints, Team up to 2,500, Enterprise beyond that. The number of agents you deploy sets the bill; how much telemetry they send does not.

Built for the team that also does everything else.

At most small businesses, "security" is one line in an IT admin's job description, not a department. EDR products built for enterprise SOCs assume a triage queue, a threat hunter and a incident-response retainer on speed dial — none of which exist here.

Protoxol's EDR is built the other way around: alerts arrive pre-correlated with context from your SIEM and email data, containment is one click and fully reversible, and the console is designed so a generalist can act on an alert without needing three years of SOC experience first. See it against a real endpoint.

FAQ

01Do we need a SOC to run EDR?

No. Protoxol's EDR is built for an IT team that also owns security, not a dedicated SOC. Alerts arrive with the context to act on them, and containment is one click, not a runbook.

02How is this different from Windows Defender or built-in antivirus?

Antivirus matches known signatures. EDR watches behavior — process execution, persistence, lateral movement and credential use — then gives you the timeline and the ability to isolate a host remotely. Most SMBs already have antivirus. EDR is what's missing.

03How fast can we deploy across our fleet?

The agent is lightweight and deploys through your existing MDM or admin console, the same way you'd push any endpoint software. Most teams have meaningful coverage within days.

04What actually happens when an endpoint is isolated?

The host is cut off from the network while staying reachable for investigation — it doesn't take down the rest of the office. Isolation is one click and fully reversible once the threat is confirmed contained.
