A Comprehensive Approach to Securing and Managing Endpoints

Overview As today's IT professionals know all too well, managing the dynamics of their endpoint infrastructure is a challenging task. Organizations now face a threat landscape that involves stealthy, targeted, and financially motivated attacks that exploit vulnerabilities in endpoint devices. Many of these sophisticated threats can evade traditional security solutions, leaving organizations vulnerable to data theft and manipulation, disruption of business-critical services, and damage to corporate brand and reputation. Traditionally, administrators have made sure that each endpoint has antivirus, antispyware, desktop firewall, intrusion prevention, and device control technologies installed on it. But deploying these security products individually on each endpoint is not only time-consuming, it also increases IT complexity and costs. This paper outlines a new approach to securing and managing the enterprise endpoint computing environment.
