Our Endpoint Security Solutions

Attack Surface Reduction

Make your network harder for adversaries to breach. We’ll help you do things like control the apps your people can download, block unsafe content, and manage known vulnerabilities.

AI-Driven Attack Prevention

Modern malware changes its code and behaviour to avoid detection. Our endpoint security solutions use AI-driven behaviour analysis to instantly block threats before they can morph or multiply.

Endpoint Detection and Response

If a threat makes it into your network, you need a machine-fast response. When our software detects a breach, it instantly alerts one of our technicians – and gives them all the information they need to track down and remediate the root cause.

Protect Your Entire Fleet

Antivirus isn’t enough to stop modern cyber threats.

Most modern malware can morph – change its code and behaviour to evade detection.

So you need a security system that can identify threats based on behaviour, not just the type of code they use.

And you need that system to cover every device in your fleet – including mobiles and BYOD endpoints like personal laptops. 

We’ll help you get the protection you need with a fully featured EDR platform that uses AI to hunt threats before they become crises.

Endpoint Security FAQs

What exactly is an endpoint?

An endpoint is any physical device that connects to a network. That includes PCs, laptops, tablets, and mobile phones. IoT devices – like smart fridges – are also a type of endpoint. All endpoints are potential threat vectors, so it’s important that they’re protected by a proper endpoint security system.

How is endpoint security different to antivirus?

Antivirus works by checking the code of programs against known threats (signature detection). That means it struggles to identify attacks that haven’t previously been entered into its database. Most modern antivirus can conduct heuristic analyses, which involve checking program behaviour against predefined rules rather than a database, but may struggle to detect threats that use legitimate code.

Endpoint detection and response (EDR) uses machine learning and AI to pinpoint suspicious behaviour. In other words: it doesn’t rely on a signature or a heuristic. It knows how malicious programs act (not just what they look like), which is essential for detecting more sophisticated attacks. EDRs can also actively hunt down threats across your network – antivirus can generally only quarantine attack payloads.

What kind of threats does endpoint security defend against?

EDR platforms like SentinelOne defend against all classes of cyber threats, including:

  • viruses (malware that can replicate itself by attaching to files)
  • Trojans (malware that disguises itself as a legitimate program)
  • ransomware (malware that prevents access to your files unless you pay a ransom)
  • worms (malware that can independently replicate itself and spread)
  • phishing (when adversaries try to trick your staff into giving away information).

What’s XDR?

Extended detection and response (XDR) is exactly what it sounds like – a type of defence that extends beyond endpoints into your cloud environment, email, and other parts of your network. XDR lets you or your cybersecurity partner see all your security data in one place, which makes it easier to identify sophisticated attacks.
