Endpoint Security: Vital in Combatting Advanced Cyber Threat Actors

Posted: Interware | February 17, 2023

Nowadays, organizations face challenges in mounting a proper defense against cyber threat actors (CTAs), whose attacks continue to increase in sophistication and volume. The contemporary remote and hybrid work models further complicate your cybersecurity program, widening the attack surface and complicating your security team's job of endpoint protection and vulnerability management.

To help you overcome this challenge, Interware offers Endpoint Security Services to fully managed endpoint protection solutions. Our solutions strengthen your devices' security and streamline your vulnerability management processes, all while relieving your teams of tedious work.

Protect All Devices Regardless of Their Network Connections

Interware offers Managed Detection and Response (MDR) solution that features a full-time cybersecurity defense. As a function of our MDR, our SOC continuously monitors and manages endpoint security services by analyzing malicious activity, escalating actionable threats to you, and removing false positives so that you can save your time for things that matter. The Interware SOC runs continuous operations 24x7x365, so it's around to monitor your endpoints even when your cybersecurity staff is not. This means you receive protection from a service that's specifically tailored to you.

Interware’s Endpoint Security Services ultimately consists of a solution that is deployed directly on your endpoint devices to help you identify, detect, respond to, and remediate security incidents and alerts. It includes various ways to protect endpoints, such as Next Generation Antivirus (NGAV), Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), asset and software inventory, USB device monitoring, user account monitoring, and host-based firewall management. These capabilities can complement other security measures you already have in place.

Interware’s Endpoint Security Services provide optimal protection against cybersecurity threats for all endpoints that operate in both remote and hybrid work environments. It does this by safeguarding your devices regardless of whether they're connected to networks in offices, homes, coffee shops, or any other remote location.

Four-Pronged Endpoint Security

Stop an Attack in Its Tracks

Interware’s Endpoint Security Service defends against cybersecurity threats by helping you actively mitigate and remediate malware affecting your devices. It can stop an attack in its tracks upon identifying a threat on one of your endpoints, and doesn’t just block malicious activity; it can kill or quarantine files through the NGAV component.

Block Threats You Don't Even Know About

For adequate endpoint protection, you need to be able to block known (signature-based) and unknown (behavioral-based) malicious activity. But you can't know every threat confronting your organization. The threat landscape is constantly changing, and you don't have time to stay on top of every new threat.

Fortunately, Interware can protect you against unknown threats by looking for and detecting unusual behavior on devices. In doing so, it takes the manual effort out of defending against new threats as they arise. This means more time and resources for other parts of your cybersecurity program.

Let's remember what you're up against. CTAs operate with increasing sophistication, using crypto-ransomware and other malware to bypass your cybersecurity measures. Network-based cybersecurity measures can't “see” encrypted traffic. But Interware. It can detect and defend against such traffic once it becomes decrypted at the endpoint.

Work with Trusted Cybersecurity Defensive Partners

Working with the SOC isn't the only cybersecurity partner available through our MDR solution. Another is NGAV; a core capability of Interware’s Endpoint Security Services, this offering protects you against security issues before they develop into incidents. Whatever your size or resources, you can use the various options within Interware’s Endpoint Security Services to tailor a protection profile that meets your needs.

Achieve Another Level of Vulnerability Management

Continuously monitor your systems and their data for vulnerabilities in real time with vulnerability management service. It then follows up by providing immediate protection against vulnerabilities. This makes it more difficult for CTAs to find and exploit known weaknesses in your systems, thus complicating their efforts to establish an initial foothold in your network.
