Endpoint Protection

Devices are everywhere in modern work. How can IT keep control?

Organisations of all sizes are at risk from nation-states, hacktivists, organised crime, and malicious and accidental insider threats.

Endpoint security is often seen as cybersecurity's frontline, and represents one of the first places organisations look to secure their enterprise networks. As data is often the most valuable asset a company has, losing the data itself, or access to it, could put the entire business at risk of insolvency.

With the modern workplace sprawling to all corners of the globe (sometimes literally), IT teams are under increasing pressure to guard against data loss as a result of lost, stolen or damaged devices.

Endpoint management involves authenticating and managing access rights of endpoint users into the company network, and utilising security policies to fend off threat actors that attempt to exploit that access.

Network managers and IT utilise endpoint management programmes to limit access to authorised users of a WAN or connected devices, apply policies across the network and tools such as Microsoft 365 or Google Workspaces, and enable administrators to manage users' access rights from a single management console.

This section of our Community uncovers the best of endpoint management and protection.

To protect themselves, businesses secure endpoints or entry points of end-user devices such as desktops, laptops, and mobile devices from being exploited by malicious actors and campaigns.
