Endpoint Security, EDR & MDR Buying Guide

Ransomware can reach a business through compromised endpoints, accounts or exposed infrastructure. Modern endpoint protection with EDR (Endpoint Detection & Response) stops attacks that traditional antivirus misses. Invitty is an endpoint security provider in Chennai supplying and deploying Sophos Intercept X, CrowdStrike Falcon, Trend Micro, Trellix, Seqrite and Kaspersky across South India.

From a 10-seat office to a 5,000-endpoint enterprise, we license the right edition, deploy agents centrally, configure policies, and can add 24×7 managed detection and response (MDR) so threats are hunted even while you sleep.

Choosing the right endpoint protection

Sophos Intercept X is our most popular pick for SMBs — strong ransomware rollback plus optional MDR. CrowdStrike Falcon leads for cloud-native EDR at enterprises. Trend Micro and Trellix fit organisations needing tight email/server integration, while Seqrite and Kaspersky offer excellent value for cost-sensitive deployments.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between antivirus and EDR?

Antivirus blocks known malware using signatures. EDR continuously records endpoint behaviour, detects suspicious activity (like encryption bursts or credential theft), and supports investigation and response actions such as isolation. Available actions, including any rollback, depend on the product and edition.

How much does endpoint security cost per user in India?

Pricing depends on the vendor, device types, edition, term and whether managed response is included. Share your endpoint and server counts for an itemised INR quotation; compare equivalent protection and support.

Can you migrate us from our current antivirus?

Yes — we plan a clean migration: removal of the old agent, phased rollout of the new one, and policy tuning, with a phased transition and checks for coverage gaps.

Do you provide managed detection and response (MDR)?

We can scope vendor-delivered MDR options such as Sophos MDR and CrowdStrike Falcon Complete. Confirm the provider, contracted service hours, response authority, supported assets and exclusions; licence supply alone is not a managed SOC service.

Are you an authorized Kaspersky partner in Kerala and across India?

Yes. Invitty is an authorized Kaspersky partner supplying Kaspersky business endpoint security across Kerala, Tamil Nadu and all of India. We quote in INR with a GST invoice, manage licensing and renewals, and provide deployment and support — remotely nationwide and on-site across South India.

Endpoint protection: decide who will act on an alert

Buying an endpoint agent and buying a monitored response service are different decisions. Begin with the devices to protect and the people available to investigate. The right proposal should explain prevention, visibility, response permissions and support ownership separately.

Count devices and workloads before comparing licences

Count laptops, desktops and servers separately. Include Windows, macOS and Linux versions, remote devices, virtual machines and machines that are often offline. Identify older applications and other security agents. A licence count based on employees alone can miss servers or duplicate coverage on devices that have already been retired.

Use a pilot to check business impact

Choose representative operating systems, a performance-sensitive application and a remote user.

Agree the existing-agent removal sequence and supported coexistence; do not disable protection across the estate at once.

Check deployment, update status, application behaviour and the minimum necessary exclusions.

Use approved benign test procedures to verify detection, notification and the agreed response path.

Record failed installations, offline devices and exception owners before wider rollout.

Write down the incident handoff

For example, if an alert appears outside office hours, who reviews it and who may isolate a critical server? Record primary and backup contacts, service hours, evidence access and the approval process. This is a planning example, not a promise that Invitty operates a 24/7 SOC. A managed service must name its delivery provider and contracted coverage.

Compare renewal and migration scope

Request the exact licence bundle, supported devices, telemetry retention, extra modules, server treatment and support terms. Separate deployment and managed response charges. Before changing products, decide what happens to historical investigation data, existing exclusions and devices that are not online during the rollout. Do not assume rollback, forensics or every response action is available in every package.
