Threat management: Endpoint Detection and Response Service
Does your antivirus software really protect your business from harm?
There’s an uncomfortable truth about most antivirus products that the IT industry doesn’t want you to know:
Most antivirus products are never up to date.
The way traditional antivirus products work is by scanning your system for known threats in the form of unique threat ‘signatures’ listed in a massive database. During an antivirus scan of your network, the signatures of the files on your system are compared with those in the database. If they match then the file is flagged as malicious. As new threats such as email worms, network viruses, spyware, data theft, phishing attacks or malware are discovered they are added to the database.
Keep that in mind when you consider how easy it is to create new malware. Hackers take an existing threat, make a simple modification and give it a new signature. This new signature means the malware no longer matches the database list. The new malware can pass undetected and infect your system.
“According the the Cyber Security Alliance, 60% of small and medium sized businesses that are hacked go out of business within six months”
As you can see, this method of identifying the threat and adding it to the database is always going to be playing catch-up. What’s needed is a completely new method of threat management. And now we’re pleased to offer a new service that does exactly that.
Introducing – Threat Management: AI-driven Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)
Our new Threat Management Service detects threats by what they DO, not what they are. It’s a comprehensive Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) service with a static Artificial Intelligence engine at the heart. Instead of relying on known signatures, our service learns ‘usual’ network behaviour and is constantly on the lookout for suspicious activity. When it does identify something as potentially malicious, it immediately isolates the source, stopping the threat in its tracks before it infects your network.
And even if something does get through and affects one of your machines, we’ve got that covered too. Even if you’ve been hit by ransomware, we can go back in time to a pre-infected state and run your computer from that, whether your device uses Windows, MacOS or Linux.
This next-generation, AI-driven antivirus technology is usually available only to Enterprise level businesses, but Austin Tovey are able to offer it to small and medium-sized companies at an affordable price.
With our Threat Management service you’re much less likely to be hit by a threat. And should the worst happen, you‘re in a much better position to recover your work and get back to business as usual.
We like to think of it as ‘antivirus on steroids’.
