Kaspersky Next EDR Foundations
Entry-tier Kaspersky Next combining next-generation antivirus with foundational EDR visibility, for businesses that need real protection without SOC-level complexity.
Straightforward, budget-friendly endpoint security
Foundations is Kaspersky's entry point into the Next platform: signature, heuristic and behavioural malware protection paired with the visibility to see what happened after an alert fires, without the full investigation tooling of the higher tiers.
It suits businesses replacing a legacy antivirus product that need a credible step up without committing to a dedicated security analyst function — Techx4u operates the console and escalates anything that needs a human decision.

Frequently asked questions
Is Foundations enough on its own?
For a small business with a low-complexity environment, yes. Once you hold sensitive customer data, face compliance requirements, or grow past roughly 50 endpoints, we typically recommend stepping up to Optimum for the added investigation depth.
Can we upgrade later without reinstalling agents?
Yes. Next tiers share the same underlying agent, so moving from Foundations to Optimum or Expert is a licence and policy change, not a redeployment.
