<h1>2025 Endpoint Prevention and Response Evaluation: Ten Vendors Certified, Two Failures, Comparative Cost and Resilience Analysis</h1> An independent cybersecurity testing lab published a 2025 Endpoint Prevention and Response evaluation assessing enterprise EPR/EDR products across 50 advanced, real-world attack scenarios mapped to a standard adversary framework; tests measured prevention, detection, response, operational impact, accuracy costs and breach financial implications. The report certified ten vendors and found two failed to meet the certification threshold, and it emphasizes the need for resilient prevention and response amid disruptions to critical infrastructure. The study offers comparative benchmarking and realistic cost modelling to inform CISO and procurement decisions, with a full comparative report available from the lab.
