AhnLab XDR vs Guided Mode: Side-by-Side Comparison (2026)

Guided Mode

SOC analysts and incident responders working with limited investigative experience will get the most from Guided Mode, which structures threat hunts through AI-driven step-by-step workflows rather than leaving teams to figure out what to do next. The tool maps directly to NIST RS.AN and RS.MA, meaning it actively coaches you through incident analysis and response coordination, not just flagging alerts. Skip this if your team is already staffed with senior analysts who work faster without guardrails, or if you need deep forensic capabilities that extend into recovery and remediation orchestration beyond investigation guidance.
