Broadcom/VMware
Mellen said VMware is among providers with a XDR offering and strategy that differentiates XDR from SIEM capabilities. Broadcom, also a noteworthy XDR provider, is in the process of acquiring VMware in a $61 billion deal. However, the deal remains in approvals limbo in Europe.
“We have seen providers increasingly embrace services as managed detection and response (MDR) continues to take hold and augment the range of choices available to organizations,” Crawford said. “We have also seen the realm of XDR expand to embrace additional venues for detection and response.”
