EDR Evasion Fundamentals

An EDR is a telemetry system, not a wall, and its most common sensor is a monitoring DLL that runs inside the very process it is watching, in memory that process is allowed to rewrite. This lesson explains where an EDR actually observes from, why the sensors that share your address space can be avoided, removed, or blinded, and how to communicate the risk clearly in interviews, reports, and stakeholder conversations.
