BITDEFENDER EXTENDS MSP
SECURITY SUITE
itdefender, a global
cybersecurity leader
protecting over 500 million
systems across 150 countries, has
announced new endpoint defence
capabilities for its GravityZone
MSP platform.
B
New features are designed to
help managed service provider
organisations to offer enhanced
endpoint protection and detection
services by identifying and stopping
network-based and fileless attacks,
exploits and malicious behaviours
before they reach endpoint
resources. Incident response
for security operations is now
simplified, offering better guidance
to streamline processes.
Backed by the power of
Bitdefender’s threat intelligence,
the new capabilities of GravityZone
enable managed services providers
to detect attacks earlier in the kill
chain, increasing protection of
their customers. For instance, with
the recent BlueKeep related
outbreaks, Bitdefender solutions
with this update are able to block
the attacks prior to exploit, before
ransomware or other payloads can be
dropped onto the system.
Bitdefender also announce GravityZone
Email Security, which offers advanced
protection against the rapidly growing
incidence of business email compromise
and executive impersonation attacks.
GravityZone Email Security leverages
a multi-stage threat prevention model
which blocks highly redirected threats
with more than 10,000 algorithms and
world class reputation engines.
Accommodating virtually any
deployment scenario, it features a
unique multi-engine platform for highly
accurate message categorisation and
threat protection.
