Symantec Endpoint Protection
Small Business Edition
Run your business in a smarter and more secure way
Running a business and keeping customers happy is hard enough without also having to worry about online threats. But, ransomware, zeroday, and other advanced threats remain a reality, and they’re becoming more numerous and sophisticated every year. In fact, cyber criminals are targeting small businesses to gain access to larger organizations. In 2017, 61% small and medium-sized organizations experienced a cyberattack.
1 That’s why it’s more important than ever to be sure your critical assets are protected.
Endpoint protection for your business should be powerful and easy to use without requiring technical expertise. It should also protect your
PC, Mac and Windows servers, without slowing them down or impacting end user productivity.
Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition has been designed specifically to meet the needs of small businesses and is delivered as a cloud-managed subscription service:

A powerful combination of detection technologies stop advanced threats and rapidly-mutating malware regardless of how they attack your endpoint – all in a high-performance, lightweight agent.
• Advanced machine learning blocks new and emerging threats using trillions of samples of good and bad files in the Symantec
Global Intelligence Network to power machine-learning results.
• Behavior monitoring determines file risk by monitoring nearly
1,400 file behaviors while they execute in real time to block malicious files.
• Memory exploit mitigation neutralizes zero-day exploits in popular software that has not been patched by the vendor using signatureless technology that works regardless of flaw, bug, or vulnerability.
• Emulation technology detects malware hidden by polymorphic custom packers. A static data scanner runs each file in milliseconds, in a lightweight virtual machine to force threats to reveal themselves, improving both detection rates and performance.
• Network firewall and intrusion prevention technology analyzes incoming and outgoing traffic and blocks threats while they travel through the network before reaching endpoints. Rules-based firewall and browser protection defend against web-based attacks. With strong network protection, you can detect most threats before they reach endpoints.
• File reputation analysis identifies whether a file is good or bad and assigns a reputation score by inspecting key attributes such file download frequency, download date, and download location—all before the file arrives at the endpoint.
• Antivirus protection uses signatures and advanced file heuristics to analyze and eradicate malware on endpoints including viruses, worms, Trojans, spyware, bots, adware, and rootkits. Cloud-based file lookups during file scans provide the latest information and protect against outbreaks and new and emerging malware.
