New Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud upgraded with EDR for small and medium businesses
Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud now includes endpoint detection and response (EDR) capabilities dedicated for small and medium-sized organizations.

Those all-in-one systems seem to offer a straightforward way to scale up compute and storage to meet these challenges in a predictable, albeit slightly lumpy, way.
