TrustCSI™ EDR Solution | Endpoint Security & Protection

What is Endpoint Security?

With the rise of remote work, businesses across almost all industries have started conducting routine yet intensive online activities over the past few years. The use of online communication tools and cloud services has allowed businesses to overcome geographical and time limitations. However, endpoint security is often overlooked.

Apart from the endpoint devices located physically in the real-life office, many private devices were used to interact with the company’s online assets under the remote working model. This leaves a huge vulnerability to the companies’ systems and turns into a cybersecurity threat to the enterprise. Endpoint security systems hence provide comprehensive protection for businesses in terms of securing the endpoints, such as desktops and laptops, from external attacks.

The attacks may include common threats from hackers’ intended activities such as malware, phishing, and zero-day attacks. To avoid the aforementioned attacks from happening, the endpoint security systems shall carry out comprehensive detection, analysis, blocking, and solving progress on each and every end-user’s device. The main purpose of enhancing endpoint protection and security is to prevent attacks before the threats become damages to the businesses and staff who are working remotely. Hence, more effort would be put into the first three mentioned actions.

Features of Endpoint Protection and Endpoint Security Solution

Two of the most common features in endpoint security solutions are Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Next-generation antivirus (NGAV). In an endpoint protection system, unlike the traditional security methods which could hardly detect the existing threats that have broken through the security system already. EDR keeps on checking the endpoint security environment and searches for the threats that remain in the system, hence removing these “silent failures” for better security. Meanwhile, NGAV is more about the detection of viruses and malicious attacks. Endpoint protection and security solutions would utilize the power of AI’s machine learning to know more about suspicious patterns and detect the threats even faster than before.

How Endpoint Protection works?

An endpoint protection solution is the fundamental measure for enterprises to enhance their Endpoint protection. The remote office work trend has opened up the enterprise to more frequent and advanced cybersecurity risks from disparate endpoints. More than ever, comprehensive endpoint protection is necessary to safeguard business assets, reduce risk and maintain operational continuity. When properly and sufficiently implemented, a universal enterprise endpoint protection solution can protect both the organization and remote staff, enabling endpoint cyber threat detection and response, thereby mitigating a wide range of threats including security breaches and data leakage.

Why do businesses need to consider endpoint security?

Businesses need endpoint security not only because of the remote working trend that makes them exposed to threats more easily but also due to the reasons below:

Data and Endpoint Protection

Endpoints have increasingly become weak points of an enterprise's cybersecurity system that is easiest to be attacked when they are not secured appropriately. Because of the rapidly increasing device quantity and unknown access to the companies’ network, data that is valuable to businesses might be easily leaked or damaged without endpoint security and endpoint protection in place. To eliminate the risk, it is necessary for businesses to consider endpoint security and take it as an important part of their cybersecurity plans.

Protecting Employees

It is hard for a company to distribute a publicly-owned device to each individual working in the organization. A common situation is that employees would use their own devices for work purposes and link to the corporate network. The diverse locations of physical devices might cause threats to employees’ devices, hence endpoint security would step in to make sure the operation runs smoothly and safely on the personally-owned devices. Employees do not need to worry that their identity would be exposed to danger and also keep their devices safe from hackers’ attacks to a higher level.

The continuing evolution of business workflows now places great emphasis on remote office work. Yet, this increasingly common practice opens up the enterprise to more frequent and advanced cybersecurity risks from disparate endpoints. More than ever, comprehensive endpoint protection is necessary to safeguard business assets, reduce risk and maintain operational continuity.

When properly and sufficiently implemented, universal enterprise endpoint security can protect both the organization and remote staff, enabling endpoint cyberthreat detection and response, thereby mitigating a wide range of threats including security breaches and data leakage.
