Solving The Antivirus Problem
So what can be done to mitigate the ever-changing attack
landscape?
The key is to prevent anything that can be prevented preexecution and to deal with what cannot by looking at the behavior of processes executing on the endpoint. This is effective because, despite the large and increasing number of malware variants, they operate in very similar ways. The number of malware behaviors is considerably smaller than the number of ways a malicious file might look, making this approach suitable for prevention and detection. An effective solution needs to cover malware of every variety and description. To be threat-agnostic, multiple layers of prevention and detection are required, backed with the ability to rollback and to provide visibility into any activity on the agent – and to do it cross-platform.
The SentinelOne Endpoint Protection Platform unifies prevention, detection, and response in a single purpose-built agent powered by machine learning and automation. It provides prevention and detection of attacks across all major vectors, rapid elimination of threats with fully automated, policy-driven response capabilities, and complete visibility into the endpoint environment with full-context, real-time forensics.
