Research Report: The Role of Network Visibility in Protecting Modern Environments
Research Report
Nov 20, 2025

John Grady, Emily Marsh
With all the different “detection and response” tools available, security teams can sometimes underestimate the value of network tools like NDR. Even as resources and users leave the traditional perimeter, network visibility plays a critical role in detecting threats to business operations. Network-based tools provide consistent, comprehensive visibility across distributed, heterogeneous environments and remain outside the scope of attacker manipulation. Security leaders need to understand how peer organizations are benefiting from the use of network-based TDR tools like NDR and the key innovations that have been made to better address increasingly distributed, cloud-centric environments.
To gain insights into these trends, Omdia surveyed 400 cybersecurity and IT professionals in North America (U.S. and Canada) involved with network-based TDR technology products and services at their organization.
