AhnLab separates basic MDR from paid EDR Premium. Buyers should confirm which response actions are included in each tier.. Public materials do not disclose minimum seats, regional availability, SLA terms or retained-forensics scope.. Fuller cross-domain detection may require AhnLab XDR, TIP, MDS, cloud or CPS products outside endpoint MDR. | No public pricing. You cannot compare costs without a sales call..

Detection rules and threat intel are proprietary. If you leave, none of it transfers.. IR is described as included, but scope is not documented.
