Antivirus and Endpoint Detection and Response (AV / EDR)
Combine malware protection with endpoint activity information to support investigation and response.
What it does
Antivirus helps identify and block malicious software. Endpoint Detection and Response, or EDR, adds information about activity on covered devices to help investigate suspicious behaviour and take appropriate action. FutureMSP provides managed endpoint protection for supported, onboarded systems. It remains one part of security: updates, account protection, backups and staff awareness still matter. No endpoint product can guarantee that every threat will be prevented.
Questions you may have
Why use EDR as well as antivirus?
Antivirus focuses on malware protection. EDR adds activity evidence and investigation capabilities that can help explain suspicious events and inform a response.
Does endpoint protection cover every business account?
No. Coverage depends on the devices and services onboarded. Email, identity and other cloud services need their own agreed controls.
