New Solution provides market-leading
protection, detection, threat hunting and response across all major
endpoints, including mobile devices
Symantec Corp. (NASDAQ: SYMC), the world’s leading cyber
security company, today announced a major revamp to its endpoint
portfolio with Symantec Endpoint Security (SES), which now delivers
protection, detection and response in a single solution, as well as
new attack surface reduction, threat hunting, and breach assessment
and prevention capabilities.
To safeguard their organizations from modern and sophisticated
attacks, security teams need simple, comprehensive and flexible
solutions. They also need automated assistance with security
management to quickly evaluate risks and take action to secure
their organization. SES solves for these needs, finding and
stopping attacks with analytics honed by Symantec’s world-renowned
security experts. Customers can deploy and manage SES via the cloud
or on-premises, or a hybrid of both, for all operating systems
including mobile devices, with single agent installation.
“The Symantec platform now offers tremendous breadth and depth,
with a new level of simplification that many security teams will be
surprised to see,” said Dave Gruber, Enterprise Strategy Group.
“Leveraging a single agent, the new Symantec Endpoint Security
platform brings this vision to life, while adding compelling new
breach assessment and prevention capabilities, support for in-house
threat hunting activities with analytics and managed threat hunting
services where organizations lack resources or skills.”
“Symantec Endpoint Security will stop emerging threats from
impacting the Williams business,” said Graeme Hackland, CIO,
Williams. “We’re excited about protection that stops all kinds of
attacks, as well as the cloud-delivered innovation – such as the
expanding use of artificial intelligence in security management
with this Symantec solution. This will definitely free up our time
and resources.”
Symantec Endpoint Security is designed to meet the unique needs
of every type of organization, with Symantec experts providing
proactive managed threat hunting, remote investigations, and
pre-authorized remediation for organizations that can’t or don’t
want to manage these key capabilities themselves.
Enterprise customers with in-house investigation resources can
opt for the brand new Threat Hunting Center add-on, which automates
threat hunting across all security devices present in an
organization’s Security Operations Center (SOC), enabling rapid
response across billions of events. Threat Hunting Center customers
will experience prioritized key alerts, reduced false positives,
and faster investigations and incident remediation. The Threat
Hunting Center integrates threat intelligence from a variety of
sources and will provide retrospective analysis and proactive
searches for unknown Indicators of Compromise (IOC’s) in the
environment to pinpoint threats and in-process attacks that might
not otherwise have been detected.
“Symantec Endpoint Security is the future of security — easy to
deploy, simple, automated, across every device. Symantec Endpoint
Security is uniquely equipped to actively reduce the attack
surface, eliminating the threat of serious attacks like targeted
ransomware. And SES gives customers complete visibility into
attacker activity on the device, leveraging cloud analytics that
can spot the most hidden targeted activity,” said Adam Bromwich,
SVP and GM, Endpoint Solutions, Symantec. “With complete
protection, EDR, attack surface reduction, and threat hunting
tools, Symantec Endpoint Security should now be an industry
standard for today’s security teams.”
