Threat Protection
Even though hackers and data thieves have gotten more sophisticated, so has threat protection. An advanced threat-protection system provides security solutions that protect all devices on your network from malware and attempts to access sensitive data. This is accomplished by honing in on different attack surfaces and applying protective measures. This means protecting elements of your network such as endpoint devices, servers, and routers. Further, on a software level, email gateways and the central management console of your network can be shielded from a variety of threats. Each company’s setup is different in complexity and size, and your threat-protection solution can be customized to suit your needs.
