You may have been asked by your insurance provider or your governing body (such as the FCA or SRA) if you have Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR). Modern online threats have been designed to avoid traditional antivirus products and use strategies to avoid detection. EDR uses advanced threat detection to protect your computers, your customers data and your business against cyber threats. Any detection raises an alarm in our Professional Services Automation (PSA) system to kill the process, delete the threat and/or isolate the affected device. It is an important tool against malware and cyber threats in a connected world.

EDR detects malware and protects your computers (also referred to as endpoints). Working in conjunction with our antivirus it detects and eliminates over 99% of threats. New threats are being developed and released into the wild every day. The deck is stacked in favour of cybercriminals. Every endpoint is a potential attack point and possible vulnerability. EDR can help you level the playing field and stay ahead of cybercriminals.

Threat intelligence provides the context of any suspicious activity. This improves the accuracy of detection and records the details of an attacker which is shared to prevent further attacks. Live attacks are stopped and remediated immediately. Isolation of endpoints prevents repeated attack attempts and malware spread on a network.
