Security software that protects devices like laptops, desktops, and servers from malware and attacks.
Endpoint protection refers to the security solutions deployed on devices—laptops, desktops, servers, and mobile devices—to protect against threats. Modern endpoint protection combines traditional antivirus with advanced capabilities like behavioural analysis, exploit prevention, and device control. It serves as a critical defence layer, protecting devices whether they're in the office, at home, or travelling. Endpoint protection has evolved from simple signature-based antivirus to sophisticated platforms incorporating EDR, DLP, and device management capabilities.
Why It Matters
The DSC Perspective:
Endpoints are where your people work and where attacks land. Every device needs protection. Modern endpoint protection goes far beyond antivirus—ensure your solution includes behavioural detection and ideally EDR capabilities.
