Vital criteria.
Organizations need objective standards to measure endpoint security and the sometimes-overlapping technologies that are involved, including corporate antivirus, Endpoint Protection (EP), Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and Managed Detection and Response.
Third-party researchers identified 11 essential criteria for evaluating EP. Below are a handful. Our guide explores them all.
- In the Wild/Full Spectrum:Â EP Products have to protect against the spread of zero-day malware and âin-the-wildâ threats.
- Exploit/Fileless: Effective EP solutions need to stop modern attacks that leverage known exploits and post-exploitation techniques.
- Ransomware Simulator: Protecting against the most devastating cyberthreat to businesses isnât an option for EP productsâitâs required.
- ITW Phishing: Phishingâs preeminence as an initial attack vector all but mandates EP products automatically block it.
Head-to-head
The right endpoint security is powered by EP that provides next-gen capabilities, as modern cyberthreats evade old-fashioned detection techniques that can no longer protect businesses.
This guide teaches the key things to look for in a solutionâincluding product capabilities, usability, and business requirementsâbased on the 11 essential criteria tested by third party researchers.
Presented as easy-to-read, one-page breakdowns, the guide will give you a jump start on evaluating the technologies needed to select the best endpoint protection for your environment.
