The Analogy
Most Threats Come Straight In Through The “Front Door,” Like Your Incoming Email…
Most threats are not “sneaking” around the back, they’re coming straight in the “Front Door.” Depending on how adept and up-to-date your “Doormen” and Security Check Points (Anti-Virus and Anti-Malware Tools) are with today’s sophisticated threats, determines the overall risks you endure every time you “open that door…” like with a new “send and receive” email request.
Anti-Virus Tools Are No Longer Enough!
Traditional AntiVirus and AntiMalware (“Anti-”) applications are No Longer Sufficient on their own to combat the growing number of virulent cyber-attacks.
Cyber Criminals Are Creating OVER 350,000 NEW VARIATIONS Of Viruses And Malware EVERY DAY! There’s just no way the “Scan-based” Anti- applications can remain a viable component in Endpoint Protection.
With Core6+, we’ve replaced the Managed AntiVirus application with Real-Time, All-The-Time, 24/7/365 Protection of the New Managed EDR Application.
The New Managed Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) Tool
Is A Far Superior Solution Over Traditional Anti- Applications!
Even “Managed” Anti- applications have a difficult time staying up-to-date with the latest threats. Plus, using traditional signature-based protection, means it can only detect and block malware that’s already on the “list.”
With so many new threats created each day, a Managed EDR solution is exponentially better than any traditional Anti- application. EDR provides more comprehensive protection against unknown threats by using behavioral analysis and AI, offering deeper visibility, faster incident response, and automated remediation.
EDR continuously monitors endpoint activity for suspicious patterns, enabling it to identify and respond to advanced, fileless, and/or zero-day attacks that Anti- tools would miss.
Key Advantages Of EDR Over Anti- Applications:
Threat Detection:
EDR detects both known and unknown threats using behavioral analysis, AI, and threat intelligence.
Anti- Applications primarily detects known threats through signature-based scanning.
Scope Of Protection:
EDR provides a holistic view of endpoint activities, including process creation, network connections, and file modifications to detect anomalies
Anti- Applications focus mainly on identifying and eliminating malicious files, worms, and trojans.
Attack Response:
EDR offers real-time, automated responses like isolating endpoints and terminating processes, even for unknown threats.
Anti- Applications response is typically limited to quarantining or removing known malware once identified.
Visibility:
EDR continuously collects and analyzes data from endpoints, providing deep visibility into security posture for threat hunting and forensic analysis.
Anti- Applications offer limited visibility, primarily focused on the status of the antivirus scan.
Advanced Threats
EDR is more effective at detecting modern threats like fileless attacks, zero-day exploits, and advanced persistent threats (APTs).
Anti- Applications often fail to detect advanced threats that don’t use known malware signatures.
What’s Even Better Than Managed EDR?
SOC-MANAGED EDR!
With Core 6+, we’re taking Managed EDR exponentially further… Not only with a Fully-Staffed, 24/7/365 Security Operations Center (SOC) Monitoring, Managing, Responding, and Remediating all alerts, but by providing the world’s best (Five Years Running) EDR Solution:
The Core 6+ SOC-Managed EDR solution is an AI-powered Endpoint Detection and Response solution that uses machine learning to autonomously detect, prevent, and respond to cyber threats like ransomware and malware across endpoints, clouds, and identities.
The Core 6+ SOC-Managed EDR offers features such as Automated Threat Remediation, Continuous Visibility, Deep Threat Analysis, and even Ransomware Rollback capabilities. The platform aims to reduce security team workloads by providing automated responses and a unified view of security data.
Key features
- 24/7/365 SOC Monitoring:
A dedicated team of security analysts continuously monitors the EDR platform for threats and provides remediation, investigation, and response managed by Security Experts. - AI-Powered Detection:
Uses machine learning to detect threats based on behavior, not just known signatures. - Autonomous Response:
Can automatically contain and remediate threats, minimizing the impact of attacks. - Increases Response Times:
Automated capabilities and expert analysts significantly reduce the mean-time to respond to threats and mitigate issues. - Storyline Technology:
Connects events across various sources to create a narrative of an attack, helping analysts understand the root cause and spread. - Unified platform:
Combines endpoint, cloud, and identity security into a single console, providing a unified view of threats. - Ransomware rollback:
Patented technology that can roll back endpoints to a previous state after a ransomware attack on Windows machines. - Continuous visibility:
Provides real-time detection and continuous visibility into endpoint activity. - Lightweight agent:
A single, lightweight agent operates both online and offline, providing continuous protection without constant cloud checks.
How it works
- Prevention:
The agent analyzes files using both static and behavioral techniques before they execute. It also includes features like application control. - Detection:
It monitors activity in real-time and uses its AI and behavioral engines to identify and alert on suspicious actions. - Response:
Based on alerts and the “storyline” of an attack, the system can automatically take action, such as killing malicious processes, quarantining files, or isolating a device. - Investigation:
Security teams can use the platform’s investigative features to dig deep into security events, using the collected data to perform threat hunting and respond to incidents.
