WHAT IS ENDPOINT DETECTION AND RESPONSE?
Endpoint Protection refers to security software installed on devices such as servers, laptops, and desktops to safeguard them from potential threats, including malicious software and unauthorized access. Implementing endpoint protection is crucial for several key reasons:
- Preventing Unauthorized Access: By deploying endpoint protection on devices, organizations can secure systems that contain sensitive corporate data, ensuring that unauthorized individuals cannot access these devices.
- Eliminating Potential Entry Points: Endpoint protection helps identify devices that are unprotected, particularly those used outside the corporate network, thereby eliminating pathways that could provide unauthorized access to the organization’s network.
- Ensuring Comprehensive Safeguards: Endpoint protection ensures that all devices connected to the corporate network are equipped with the necessary security measures, providing robust defense against potential cyberattacks and safeguarding the entire network.
OBJECTIVE
The primary goal is to guarantee that all endpoints have the required security agents installed, ensuring comprehensive protection across the entire organization’s network.
