An endpoint security solution<\/a> is one of the most critical aspects of any cybersecurity policy. It\u2019s necessary to deploying firewalls, detecting malware, ransomware, or cryptojacking threats, and removing them from corporate servers. It\u2019s the most easily understood, and thus one of the most popular, components of cybersecurity.<\/span><\/p>\n But this often means that an endpoint security solution is one of the first selections an enterprise makes for its cybersecurity policy. Thus it is the digital security component that is the most likely to stagnate or become outdated without anyone noticing. Old habits die hard, and people like what is familiar to them even if it doesn\u2019t work. Your enterprise must be willing to make changes to get serious about your digital security. If you are rewriting your cybersecurity policies to enforce modern best practices, it may be time to reevaluate if your endpoint security as well. <\/span><\/p>\n Here are the 5 signs that it is time to update or replace your endpoint security solution: \u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n False positives are the bane of IT departments and cybersecurity at enterprises large and small alike. Tracking down what looks to be a serious digital threat only to discover it was an unusual but innocent event\u2014or an average event wrongly identified\u2014is more than just an annoyance. It\u2019s a serious drain on your cybersecurity team\u2019s valuable and limited time and their budgets; some enterprises spend over a million dollars a year on false positives\u2019 wild goose chases. Even worse, false positives drown out legitimate security threats, allowing them the opportunity to slip by and wreck silent havoc on your corporate servers. <\/span><\/p>\n An endpoint security solution that bombards your team with false positives needs to be replaced as soon as possible. Not only will it spare your wallet, it will also help your cybersecurity keep their sanity in addressing the attacks on your enterprise. <\/span><\/p>\n Traditional, older endpoint security solutions often rely on signature-based detection methods. This worked in the early days of cybersecurity, but newer threats such as signatureless threats and fileless malware are more than capable of eluding signature-based detection. With these new kinds of malware becoming increasingly popular<\/a>, traditional detection tools are becoming equally obsolete. <\/span><\/p>\n A new endpoint security solution will feature new signatureless based detection methods and tools to help detect fileless malware threats. <\/span><\/p>\n The older the endpoint security solution, the more CPU processing power it requires to perform its duties. This can cause your endpoints to run at unacceptably sluggish speeds, and a sluggish computer is a sluggish employee; productivity can suffer. Further, even draining so much memory doesn\u2019t guarantee that the scanning will be quick either. Replacing that solution with new one should free up plenty of CPU power while scanning your enterprise\u2019s networks more efficiently. <\/span><\/p>\n An older endpoint security solution tends to cause usability issues that range from obnoxious to downright dangerous. Some solutions will bombard users with pop-up warnings or reminders, as they don\u2019t have the automation capabilities that would act autonomously to find and remove threats. Others will require intricate manual intervention to function, which is not only a serious time-sink but can create more dangers than they solve: if the user interface is too confusing, as they tend to be in older solutions, the user might enact incorrect or ineffective settings, leaving the enterprise inadvertently vulnerable. <\/span><\/p>\n A new endpoint security solution should have a simplified, clean user interface that is easy and effective. <\/span><\/p>\n An ideal endpoint security solution needs to accommodate the needs of the enterprise, and in part that means working with other solutions to create a comprehensive security network. Even the most advanced endpoint security solutions don\u2019t have SIEM capabilities or identity management components, and so your solution will need to integrate with others. If your solution doesn\u2019t that\u2019s a sign it is time to immediately switch; you cannot rely upon an old endpoint security solution alone to defend your enterprise. <\/span><\/p>\n Furthermore, your solution must be able to deploy across the entire enterprise\u2014a taller order than it once was with the rise of bring-you-own-devices culture becoming widespread. Again, if it cannot, then you need to replace it. It really is as simple as that.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t![\"Insight](\"https:\/\/solutionsreview.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/ij1.jpg\" "\\"Insight")
