Your Challenge

  • Malware is an ever-present threat that continues to grow at near exponential rates.
  • Poor Anti-Malware performance (due to malware growth) combined with a large number of vendors makes Anti-Malware selection difficult.
  • The cost of infection is such that enterprises must implement an Anti-Malware solution, but cannot afford to implement the wrong solution.

Our Advice

Critical Insight
  • Virus volumes are becoming almost unmanageable: At least by traditional measures. Reputation scanning offers the hope of a rebalancing of the protection/performance scale and is becoming ubiquitous.
  • Endpoints need protecting against more than just malware: Endpoints have become a primary battlefront in the modern security war. Every step must be taken to protect them. Complete suites offer unparalleled ease of management.
  • Cheap and cheerful may no longer be appropriate: Cut-price solutions tend to be lowest on features/functionality. When enterprise protection is at stake, you can’t afford to not spend a little more.
Impact and Result

Implementing feature-rich endpoint Anti-Malware solutions is the most significant step that enterprises can take to mitigate risk. Selecting the optimal solution ensures the greatest level of protection, and therefore the greatest reduction in risk.
