Autonomous EDR that stops the breach — not just flags it.
WoneShield Aegis is autonomous EDR + NDR: a lightweight agent that detects threats on your endpoints and network in real time and blocks, contains and recovers on its own — stopping ransomware, lateral movement and data exfiltration before they spread.
Why active defense
Alerting is not protecting.
Detection without response
An EDR that only alerts is a faster way to watch yourself get breached. By the time an analyst triages, ransomware has already spread.
Alert fatigue & thin SOCs
Thousands of alerts, a handful of responders. The signal that mattered is buried — and dwell time keeps climbing.
Threats move at machine speed
Lateral movement and encryption happen in minutes. Human-paced response simply can't keep up anymore.
Built for security teams · mapped to the standards you're audited against
The cost of waiting
Every minute of dwell time is damage.
Autonomous response
Block. Contain. Recover. Without waiting for a human.
When Aegis sees a high-confidence threat, it acts in seconds — ASN-aware blocking at the network edge, process kill, host isolation, and self-heal — all within guardrails you define. Your team approves the gray areas; the obvious ones are already handled.
- ✓Sub-5-minute mean time to contain
- ✓Admin-safelisted — it can never lock you out
- ✓Every action reversible and fully audit-logged
Where Aegis intervenes
It breaks the attack at every stage.
Aegis doesn't wait for the final step. It detects and contains across the kill chain — so an intrusion never becomes an incident.
How Aegis works
From install to autonomous in four steps.
One agent. One encrypted mesh. One model. No console-hopping.
- 1
Deploy the agent
One lightweight, signed agent across Windows, macOS and Linux — installed in minutes, phoning home over an encrypted WireGuard mesh.
- 2
Baseline & detect
Aegis profiles normal behavior and watches processes, files, USB, and network in real time — feeding every signal into the WoneShield core.
- 3
Decide with guardrails
Pre-set policies (with an admin safelist) determine the response: auto-act on high-confidence threats, propose the riskier ones for approval.
- 4
Act & recover
Block the source (ASN-aware), kill the process, isolate the host, then self-heal — and hand the incident to Respond and the evidence to Comply.
Architecture & deployment
One signed agent, one encrypted mesh, one console.
Signed desired-state, HMAC-authenticated check-in, cert-pinned TLS 1.2+ — self-hostable for full data sovereignty.
Capabilities
A full active-defense agent — not a sensor.
Mapped to MITRE ATT&CK
Coverage you can verify — not just claim.
Aegis detections map to MITRE ATT&CK tactics and techniques, and WoneShield Range continuously proves that coverage with breach-&-attack simulation.
How it compares
Legacy AV alerts. Traditional EDR detects. Aegis defends.

Why Aegis
EDR that finishes the job.
It acts — not just alerts
Aegis is built to prevent, block, contain and recover autonomously. Outcomes, not a queue.
Endpoint and network, unified
EDR and NDR in one agent and one model — no blind spot between the host and the wire.
Part of one platform
Every detection becomes a Signal in the WoneShield core — feeding XDR (Argus), response (Respond) and recovery (Continuum).
Tamper-evident & sovereign
Signed, self-attesting, OTA-updated — and self-hostable with data residency you control.
See it in action
Watch Aegis stop an attack — autonomously.
A two-minute walkthrough: deploy the agent, trigger simulated ransomware behavior, and watch Aegis detect, block and isolate in real time — with no analyst in the loop.
- ✓Live detection → autonomous containment
- ✓Endpoint + network in one agent
- ✓Every action fully audit-logged
By design
Engineered for outcomes, not dashboards.
Return on investment
It pays for itself before it stops a single breach.
Consolidating point tools into Aegis typically offsets its cost on licensing alone — before counting a single prevented incident.
Better together
Aegis is the engine in a unified platform.
Its detections become Signals in the WoneShield core — so the whole platform gets stronger:
Use cases
What Aegis stops.
“Aegis caught and contained a ransomware operator at 2am — isolated the host, killed the process, and we woke up to a closed incident instead of a crisis.”
What security teams say
Trusted to act when seconds matter.
“Aegis cut our mean time to contain from hours to minutes — autonomous response is real, not a buzzword.”
Amara OkaforCISO · Financial Services“It stopped a ransomware attempt mid-encryption and isolated the host before our SOC even triaged the alert.”
David ChenHead of SecOps · Healthcare“Finally, EDR and NDR in one agent — we see lateral movement across endpoint and network on a single timeline.”
Priya NairDirector of Infrastructure · SaaS“The ASN-aware blocking shut down a botnet hammering us overnight — with zero false positives on our own ranges.”
Marcus LeeSecurity Engineer · Fintech“We replaced three point tools with Aegis and our endpoint security coverage went up, not down.”
Sarah WhitfieldIT Director · Manufacturing“ATT&CK coverage we can prove to the board — and Range keeps validating it every week.”
Tobias BergVP Security · Retail“Dwell time used to be our nightmare. With autonomous containment, intrusions never become incidents.”
Elena RossiCISO · Insurance“The agent is featherweight — under 1% CPU — and OTA updates mean we never touch endpoints by hand.”
Kwame MensahEndpoint Lead · Telecom“As an MSSP, multi-tenant active defense lets us deliver real response to clients — not just alerts.”
Rachel AdeyemiPractice Lead · MSSP“Self-hosted, sovereign, and still fully autonomous — exactly what our public-sector mandate required.”

Daniel MwangiHead of Cyber · GovernmentThe basics
What is EDR — and how is active defense different?
Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) continuously monitors endpoints for malicious behavior and gives security teams the telemetry to investigate and respond.
Traditional EDR stops at detection — it raises an alert and waits for a human. Active defense closes the loop: it blocks, contains and recovers autonomously, within guardrails, so threats are stopped at machine speed.
- EDR vs EPP
- EPP (antivirus) prevents known malware; EDR detects and responds to behavior, including novel and fileless attacks.
- EDR vs XDR
- XDR correlates signals across endpoint, network, cloud and identity — Aegis feeds WoneShield Argus (XDR) so detection spans everything.

FAQ
EDR & active defense, answered.
Is Aegis EDR or NDR?+
Both. One agent delivers endpoint detection & response (EDR) and network detection & response (NDR), correlated in a single model — so host and network threats are seen together.
Does Aegis replace my antivirus / EPP?+
Aegis provides prevention, HIDS/HIPS and active response that goes well beyond signature antivirus. Most customers consolidate onto Aegis; it can also run alongside an existing EPP during migration.
What does 'autonomous response' actually do?+
On high-confidence threats Aegis blocks the source (ASN-aware), kills the process, isolates the host and self-heals — within guardrails you set (admin safelist, critical-asset protections). Riskier actions become one-click approvals.
Which operating systems are supported?+
Windows, macOS and Linux from a single lightweight, signed agent. The agent self-updates over the air, hash-gated.
How does it help against ransomware?+
Aegis detects and contains the behaviors ransomware relies on — rapid encryption, lateral movement, suspicious exfiltration — and isolates the host before it spreads. Paired with Continuum, recovery is verified, not hoped for.
Can we self-host / control data residency?+
Yes. WoneShield is sovereign by design — self-hostable with configurable data residency, so your security telemetry stays where you require.
How much does WoneShield Aegis cost?+
Aegis starts at $9 per endpoint per month (Core) and $19 for Pro (EDR + NDR + active defense), with custom pricing for Enterprise, sovereign, MSSP and government deployments. Volume discounts apply at scale.
Do I still need antivirus if I have Aegis?+
No — Aegis provides prevention, HIDS/HIPS and active response that supersede signature antivirus. Most customers consolidate onto Aegis; it can run alongside an existing EPP during migration.
How long does Aegis take to deploy?+
The signed agent installs in minutes and self-updates over the air, so most teams are protecting their whole fleet within a day — with no big-bang cutover.
