Managed Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR)
Detecting and removing threats before they cause harm
Endpoints like computers, phones, and servers are key targets for cyber criminals.
Most breaches start on an endpoint. Detecting and removing malware and stopping attacks before they cause harm is key to preventing the downtime, lost revenue, and upset of cyber attacks.
If cyber criminals can infiltrate an endpoint, they can then encrypt it with Ransomware for extortion or move laterally in search of private data, intellectual property, or financial systems.
Hybrid working means we are more dependant on endpoints than ever before. You need to enable home working without adding cyber risk if you are to recruit and retain high calibre teams.
Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) – the Antivirus Software (AV) replacement
Antivirus software stops malware with known signatures. But cyber criminals now use more sophisticated techniques than ever before, so a better way of seeing and stopping new threats is needed.
Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) goes far beyond traditional antivirus software. It looks for, and stops, threats that use previously unseen signatures, and other devious attacks like memory-resistant malware that cover their tracks and try to block their own removal.
EDR has another key advantage over antivirus software – the ‘R’ in ‘EDR’ – Response.
In the event of an attack like Ransomware reaching its target and encrypting endpoints, the Response in EDR kicks in and takes swift action:
- EDR identifies the malware and prevents it from moving to the wider network
- The Ransomware is removed from all affected endpoints
- The endpoints and data are returned to their pre-attack status
This all happens in a matter of minutes. It ensures swift resolution and prevents repeat attacks.
