Cybersecurity threats are around every corner and you need more than antivirus to protect your business
Benjamin Franklin is credited with the saying, ”If you fail to plan, you are planning to fail.” While he probably was not referring to cybersecurity, this frame of mind can certainly be applied to this industry. Planning can certainly make the difference between having protection against malicious activity in real-time and being a victim of a career-threatening cyber attack.
Traditional anti-virus software should no longer be viewed as a comprehensive solution for small and medium-sized businesses. Malware has outgrown many traditional anti-virus programs on the market. The Dark Web and cyber criminals can create and sell attack kits that will be difficult for any traditional anti-virus program to categorize.
Today, more businesses are beginning to recognize the importance of Endpoint Detection and Response platforms. These platforms can offer a significant amount of protection against a variety of malicious activities. SentinelOne Security is one of the leading security solutions made for small and medium-sized businesses in various industries, including the following:
- Healthcare
- Education
- Energy industry
- Finance
SentinelOne Security
SentinelOne uses the Endpoint Security approach. The Endpoint Security approach focuses on discovering threats and eliminating them across any network that is connected to the client’s devices, such as the following:
- Desktops
- Laptops
- Mobile phones
- Tablets
- Workstations
This solution provides remediation capabilities that will allow users to alleviate the impact of any type of malicious attack and ultimately restore the system. SentinelOne Endpoint Protection Platform’s solution not only combines detection, remediation, and prevention, but it also combines mitigation and forensic capabilities for your devices.
Rather than SentinelOne creating an Endpoint Detection and Response platform and leaving it as is, they went above and beyond to create full protection for added safety and security.
Combatting Malicious Activities
One of the growing concerns within small and medium-sized businesses is the presence of fileless malware. What is fileless malware? Fileless malware is a particular type of malware that makes use of legitimate programs to infect an endpoint. It can definitely be a huge challenge to detect and remove the files because there is no presence of a file.
You can no longer block particular operations. Your business or organization will need solutions that can prevent one or more attacks using exploits, kits, macro documents, etc. without causing any major disruptions to your day-to-day operations. SentinelOne has proven to be effective at stopping this particular type of malware by using ”Active Content”. Active Content offers a solution to the fileless malware problem by allocating blame to the true source of the problem.
Remediation Capabilities
As mentioned previously, one of the capabilities of the SentinelOne solution is remediation. The remediation capability will allow all users to reduce the effects of cyber attacks and restore the system quickly and efficiently. The remediation capability will do more than give users immunity from small and large threats within the business. This capability will also be able to detect and alert you of threats.
SentinelOne Security is known for its use of automation and advanced machine learning solutions. When using SentinelOne, you will not only be able to enjoy the advantages of a comprehensive and powerful solution, but you will also have the knowledge and experiences of a professional support staff.
With SentinelOne Security, your business or organization will gain an overall view of everything that is taking place across the network. Today, your small or medium-sized business can no longer sit back and wait for an attack to take place before implementing an effective solution. Any malicious attack against your network and devices can result in data loss and significant downtime if you fail to proactively protect your business.
The security dangers will vary from internal threats to external threats. For more information on how you can protect your business now and in the future, please do not hesitate to contact us today.
