SAN JOSE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Oct 20, 2025--

Stellar Cyber, the cybersecurity illumination company, today announced it has been recognized as a Representative Vendor in the 2025 Gartner® Hype Cycle™ for Security Operations under the Extended Detection and Response (XDR) category.

According to the report, “ Extended detection and response (XDR) delivers unified security incident detection and response capabilities. XDRs integrate threat intelligence, security events and telemetry data from multiple sources, with security analytics to provide contextualization and correlation of security alerts. XDR must include native sensors. XDR can be delivered on-premises or as a SaaS offering, and is typically deployed by organizations with smaller security teams. ”

The report goes on to advise, “ Evaluate XDR with SIEM capabilities as a possible migration candidate for organizations with limited SIEM use cases, considering it as a replacement for their existing primary SIEM. ”

“We believe our inclusion in this year’s Hype Cycle reinforces Stellar Cyber’s leadership in converging SIEM and XDR capabilities into a single, easy-to-operate platform,” said Aimei Wei, CTO and Founder of Stellar Cyber. “As organizations increasingly look to simplify security operations, Stellar Cyber offers a truly open approach that integrates with best-of-breed EDRs like CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and Microsoft—delivering flexibility no other XDR can match.”

The Gartner report outlines that XDR “offers a platform approach for threat detection, investigation and response (TDIR) by using an ecosystem, rather than a best-of-breed approach.” This capability is especially important as security teams face mounting pressure to streamline operations, reduce overhead, and improve time-to-response.

Additionally, the report notes, “The relative ease of use of XDR to discover and triage common threats reduces the need for internal skill sets and could reduce staffing levels needed to operate a more complex solution, such as SIEM.”

Stellar Cyber is proud to be named among sample vendors such as Cisco, CrowdStrike, Fortinet, Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, SentinelOne, Sophos, Trellix, and Trend Micro.
