Strengthening Your Endpoint Defense: How ManageEngine Endpoint Central's Next-Gen Antivirus Complements Existing Security Solutions

The co-deployment of ManageEngine Endpoint Central Next-Gen Antivirus with existing antivirus or next-generation antivirus solutions fosters a more comprehensive security posture. This layered defense strategy significantly enhances an organization's ability to mitigate threats within the constantly evolving cybersecurity landscape. This document delves into the substantial benefits of integrating ManageEngine Endpoint Central's Next-Gen Antivirus with other security products, demonstrating how it strengthens overall protection.

Why Traditional Antivirus Needs a Next-Gen Partner: ManageEngine Endpoint Central Next-Gen Antivirus to the Rescue

Traditional antivirus plays a vital role in cybersecurity, but it has limitations. Its signature-based detection struggles with new threats like zero-day attacks, which lack pre-defined signatures. These unique patterns are scanned in the files and are compared byte-by-byte to the signatures of the malware in the existing virus database. If there's a perfect match, it flags the file as malware. However, attackers can easily tweak their malware to avoid detection. A single byte change throws off the signature match, rendering traditional AV ineffective. It also lacks in-depth visibility into program behavior, making it vulnerable to malware disguised as harmless files.

This is where ManageEngine Endpoint Central's Next-Gen Antivirus steps in as a powerful ally. Next-Gen Antivirus utilizes advanced techniques like behavioral analysis to identify suspicious activities, even from unknown programs.

Next-Gen Antivirus solution's behavioral analysis excels at catching novel malware and zero-day attacks that traditional AV might miss and analyzes program behavior, giving you a comprehensive picture of what's happening on your system and identifying potential threats hidden within seemingly innocent files.

The combined strength of traditional antivirus's signature-based detection and next-gen antivirus's behavioral analysis creates a multi-layered defense, significantly improving your overall threat detection rate. Thus, it remains effective against established threats and this layered approach ensures you're covered for both common and sophisticated malware.

Strengthen Your Endpoint Defense: ManageEngine Endpoint Central's Next-Gen Antivirus as a Powerful Ally

While you might already have a security solution in place, ManageEngine Endpoint Central Next-Gen Antivirus offers a compelling layer of additional protection for your endpoints. Here's how:

ManageEngine Endpoint Central Next-Gen Antivirus goes beyond basic threat detection. Its patented Anti-Ransomware technology specifically targets ransomware behavior. The patented technology ensures less than one percent false positive alerts, minimizing alert fatigue. It can identify suspicious activities like rapid file encryption and alert you immediately. Ransomware exhibits a typical behavior by opening numerous files and substituting them with encrypted versions. The Ransomware Detection Engine can monitor such unusual activities and promptly alert users to potential threats. Regularly scheduled backups allow you to restore infected devices to a pre-malware state with a single click, effectively neutralizing the threat.

Infected devices can quickly become a launchpad for further attacks. ManageEngine's Network Quarantine feature swiftly isolates compromised endpoints, stopping the spread of malware and aiding containment efforts.

Deploying ManageEngine Endpoint Central's Next-Gen Antivirus alongside your existing solution creates a powerful layered defense.
