## What it is
OpenEDR is an open-source Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) agent written in C++ that records endpoint telemetry, process hierarchies, file/device trajectories, and hashes locally. It forwards collected security events to locally or cloud-hosted Elasticsearch deployments for real-time visibility, breach detection, and root-cause analysis.

## Use cases
- detect breaches on endpoints
- monitor endpoint telemetry in real time
- perform root cause analysis of security incidents
- track process hierarchy and file trajectory on Windows machines
- forward endpoint events to Elasticsearch
- map endpoint activity to MITRE ATT&CK framework

## When to choose
- you need a free, open-source EDR agent for Windows endpoints
- you already run Elasticsearch and want endpoint telemetry piped into it
- you want granular base-security-event visibility for threat hunting
- you prefer to self-host your endpoint security data

## When to avoid
- you need a turnkey EDR with polished console and easy deployment out of the box
- you need cross-platform agents for Linux or macOS
- your organization requires commercial support and SLAs
- you want a lightweight agent with minimal resource footprint

## Facets

- domain: security, developer-tools, monitoring
