Virus and Spyware Protection

Here are a few vendors we use against cybersecurity threats Sophos Endpoint protection platform

So many solution provider folks, such as Crown Computers, use Sophos endpoint protection. We manage endpoints using their centralized management console.

Sophos has unique ways of protecting endpoint devices, such as their MDR (Managed Detection and Response), where we have security teams watching using machine learning to determine and detect malicious activity. Based on threat data, security incidents are created to ensure that threat detection and response are resolved.

Sophos covers all corporate devices in the corporate network. They also update their endpoint protection daily to protect endpoints against emerging threats that have been discovered.

Since our company ditched its old Endpoint protection software Symantec and AVG, we have been 100% protected against evolving zero-day threats and other types of zero-day attacks with Sophos endpoint detection.

Sentinel One Endpoint protection platform

Sentinel one provides comprehensive protection and is an excellent choice for endpoint protection. Top companies choose Sentinel one for its quick lockdown and ability to reverse the clock of time capability. Endpoint protection works in Sentinel one by examining files locally and determining their cyber risk in real-time. This software has a great website and centralized management console as well.

They provide a very lightweight agent that defends against the most sophisticated attacks. Endpoint detection and response are excellent in protecting endpoints because, with Sentinel one, you can create security groups with different levels of protection.

With their enterprise networks solution, they are so confident with their remediation capabilities needed to defend against a data breach that they offer a money guarantee. Suppose you configure your Sentinel one endpoint security to the highest level protection option.

They will pay for damages if malicious activity harms the endpoint or enterprise network. Sentinel One has the best guarantee in the endpoint security industry. They are willing to bet that all zero-day attacks and evolving zero-day threats have no chance because of their unique endpoint security solution. Traditional antivirus software cannot deliver endpoint protection solutions like Sentinel One endpoint security guarantee.

Threatlocker

Threatlocker is in a league of its own regarding endpoint security software. Its big claim to fame is blocking any EXE, Script, or anything that isn’t supposed to execute. Threatlocker is a permission-based platform that differs from other managed threat-hunting or traditional antivirus solutions. It simply asks the centralized solution if the computer is allowed to run this or not run the app.

So basically, they have a “deny everything and only allow what you need” approach. Threatlocker is highly effective and can also run in conjunction with other endpoint protection platforms app, such as Sophos and Todyl. It’s very lightweight and adds different value than other platforms from an administrative standpoint. You can allow specific users access to notepad.exe and others not.

You can stop users from executing a file that is downloaded or any script as well. You can set up the endpoint security solution to alert the administrator when someone tries to click on something that is not on the allowed list. The pop-up for the admin also becomes an opportunity for the administrator to safelist that APP.

Alternatively, You can track down the end-user that might have been trying to update their software and help them. Alternatively, they could almost accidentally click on a file that could have caused file-based malware attacks on the network had Threatlocker not stopped it. The alerting system for this endpoint security product is second to none.

The other great thing about this platform is that it does not require an internet connection. You can install it, and it will not require new virus definitions or other types of downloads, which makes this endpoint security software a league of its own.
