Endpoint Protection Buyer’s Guide: SentinelOne, Bitdefender, VMware & Microsoft (Comparison)
Looking for a feature-rich, reliable, and user-friendly endpoint protection solution to keep you secure? See how the big names measure up against each other.
For as much as IT allows your business to do, it can also present a number of threats to your business if it isn’t properly protected. Your business’ laptops, tablets, smartphones, and other wireless devices present opportunities for cybercriminals, or misinformed employees to put you at risk.
The best way to start strengthening your cyber defenses is with a comprehensive and reliable Endpoint Protection solution.
What Is Endpoint Protection?
This type of cybersecurity solution detects and eliminates threats as they happen. This is especially important if you currently rely on a free or basic antivirus solution, which can be easily circumvented by cybercriminals.
Whether it’s malware, a virus, or another threat, the right Endpoint Protection solution will spot threats as they happen, and keep them from causing damage.
General features include:
- Endpoint Device Policies: Keeping your staff from inadvertently putting your business data at risk on their personal devices.
- Encryption Of Electronically Shared Files: Protect files both at rest and in transit.
- Blocks Movement of Sensitive Data: Keeps the most sensitive data from being moved without authorization.
- Limits Remote Access to Networks: Prevents employees from risking your data on an unsecured network.
