Endpoint Protection
Endpoint protection uses a multi-layered approach to secure your devices against malicious activity. This in turn prevents infection spreading through your network. Endpoint protection is your first line of defence against viruses, malware, ransomware and online fraud.
Most commonly endpoint means computers, laptops, smartphones and tablets. It can, however, also include servers, printers or any internet-ready device. The aim should be to protect every endpoint which can connect to your network or cloud services. Only then can it protect your business, and your sensitive data, from malicious activity.
This can be a lot of devices, however. Which is why your endpoint protection solution needs to be flexible, strong and easy to manage.
How does endpoint protection work?
Endpoint protection applies a combination of security standards and company-defined rules. Devices have to meet the rules and security standards before gaining access to the network.
Active protection includes:
- monitoring for incoming threats, blocking and removing them
- block access to, copying and transferring of sensitive files or data
- signature detection – scanning for known characteristics of malicious files
- behaviour detection – looks for suspicious behaviour associated with known malware
Active protection can only work if it is kept constantly up to date in response to new threats. This is why device management is also critical to successful endpoint protection. If any device lags behind in software or database updates it can expose the whole network.
What makes a good Endpoint Protection solution?
Protecting your business from cyber–attack is so important you should be very demanding of your providers.
Any robust Endpoint Protection solution must include:
- Application controls – prevents execution of known malicious applications.
- Antivirus & anti-malware – detects and removes malware, worms, trojans, adware and other threats.
- Real-time auto updates – protects against new threats as soon as they are discovered.
- On-access scanning – checks every file before it is opened.
- Lightweight and efficient – space and processor hogging software affects productivity and responds slowly.
- Ability to detect major and minor threats and vulnerabilities. Minor vulnerabilities now can grow into major ones later.
