About RevealX Network Detection and Response

What is RevealX Network Detection and Response (NDR)?

RevealX NDR is the core cybersecurity module of the RevealX platform. It enables organizations to reduce risk and identify threats other tools like EDR and SIEM miss. By ingesting and analyzing network telemetry, RevealX NDR provides OSI Layer 2–Layer 7 visibility and real-time detection while providing streamlined investigation workflows for faster, more confident response across on-premises, remote, hybrid, and multicloud environments. For more information, visit the RevealX NDR overview page.

How does RevealX NDR differ from RevealX Network Performance Monitoring (NPM)?

While both core modules are critical for risk reduction and the business resiliency of your network, RevealX NDR is focused on cybersecurity, and RevealX NPM is focused on performance. RevealX NDR proactively detects potential cyber threats across the attack surface, while RevealX NPM actively monitors potential network and application performance issues. For more information, visit the RevealX NPM overview page.

How does ExtraHop determine my number of devices and daily record store ingest?

Each device that is discovered by a single ExtraHop sensor and which has a unique identifier counts towards your licensed device capacity. If a device is discovered by multiple sensors, that device is counted towards the device capacity for each unique sensor, and counts towards your total device capacity.

How does ExtraHop bill for device and/or record overages?

If you exceed your allotment of daily device and/or records ingest capacity, you may be billed for overages. After you purchase RevealX, you will have a 90-day grace period before ExtraHop begins to act on overages incurred. Monthly notifications will serve as an opportunity for you to budget for payment of overages. Invoices will be sent on a quarterly basis for overages incurred in all prior months within the quarter.
