Threat Control for Endpoints

Introduction

Comprehensive Security for Users and Endpoints

The Cisco Threat Control for Endpoints solution applies rigorous security policies to keep your network endpoints well defended from attacks.

Network attacks that start from the desktop can cause lost revenue, theft of intellectual property, and data loss. The challenge to your productivity is even greater in the face of mobile employees who might inadvertently introduce infections into the corporate network.

End-user protection begins by ensuring that user devices are in complete compliance with your organization's security policy before granting them network access. This may include checks for specific operating system versions or antivirus signatures. Once on the network, the end user must be protected from malware and intrusions.

The Cisco Threat Control for Endpoints solution offers the following capabilities:

  • Endpoint integrity assessment, including checks for the latest security service packs or antivirus definitions and quarantine of noncompliant systems
  • Network-level attack detection and prevention to protect systems targeted by hackers
  • Behavioral monitoring on every system to build "day-zero" defenses
  • Threat containment on infected systems and preventing the spread of infection to other devices
