What is the Endpoint Detection and Response for Active course about?

Security teams often struggle to maintain consistent endpoint coverage when devices change hands or are decommissioned. This creates blind spots that advanced threats can exploit. Traditional EDR training often overlooks operational lifecycle events like equipment resale or role changes, leaving practitioners unprepared for real-world edge cases.
