WatchGuard Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)
The WatchGuard EPP product goes beyond signature-based antivirus to stop malware, ransomware and threats that leverage unknown, zero day vulnerabilities. Even better, it's managed with an intuitive Cloud-based console and lightweight agent that doesn't interfere with endpoint performance. Endpoints are protected from viruses, malware, spyware and phishing with WatchGuard EPP. We use a comprehensive set of security techniques including signatures, local cache, and even our own proprietary intelligence feeds derived from the malware previously detected with our EDR products. This enables us to find zero day exploits using behavioral heuristics and known indicators of attacks as “contextual rules." WatchGuard EPP centralizes next-generation antivirus for all your Windows, macOS and Linux desktops, laptops, and servers, in addition to the leading virtualization systems.
