VIPRE enhances its EDR platform with new
capabilities to accelerate incident investigation and lower
solution TCO further.
LONDON, Oct. 15,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- VIPRE Security Group,
a global leader and award-winning cybersecurity, privacy, and
data protection company, has been named a 'Strategic Leader'
by independent security software testing organization,
AV-Comparatives, in its 2024 Endpoint Prevention and Response (EPR)
test report. VIPRE's endpoint solutions excel across all attack
phases, offering the second-lowest total cost of ownership (TCO).
Today, VIPRE also announces new capabilities – AI Advisor and
Remote Browser Isolation (RBI) – in its Endpoint Detection and
Response (EDR) platform, significantly augmenting incident response
and remediation capabilities.
'Strategic leader' positioning
VIPRE scored 100 percent combined across all the endpoint
compromise, internal propagation, and asset breach attack phases
for both prevention and detection, positioning the solutions'
capabilities as amongst the best in the industry. Of the 12
security solutions evaluated, VIPRE ranks as the second most
cost-effective option, offering amongst the lowest TCO.
"VIPRE distinguished itself notably in our evaluations,
demonstrating formidable system protection capabilities.
Furthermore, it achieved a leading position in terms of total cost
of ownership, underscoring its exceptional value proposition for
enterprises," Peter Stelzhammer, Co-founder, AV-Comparatives,
commented.
The EPR Test is designed to evaluate the effectiveness of
Endpoint Protection Products (EPP), Endpoint Detection and Response
(EDR), and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solutions in
countering complex, multi-stage attacks that target an
organization's infrastructure. This rigorous assessment requires
cybersecurity solutions to contend with a suite of 50 unique,
targeted attack scenarios, utilizing a broad spectrum of techniques
and attack vectors.
New incident investigation capabilities to further reduce
TCO.
With VIPRE's new generative AI-based AI Advisor, security teams
can accelerate incident investigations, enhance context, and close
incidents faster, saving significant time. When investigating
incidents, security professionals can ask questions using natural
language, request summaries about discovered links and files,
explore context about artifacts, ask for deeper sandbox analysis of
links and files, and more.
The embedded analysis engine, RBI (Remote Browser Isolation),
enables security professionals to safely explore suspicious links
first-hand with zero risk of compromise. Teams can remotely browse
look-a-like sites and phishing attempts that don't typically
trigger automated detection, through VIPRE's secure cloud-based
browser, ensuring that the enterprises' environment always remains
safe.
These new investigation tools will help to further decrease the
TCO value of VIPRE's EDR platform, making the solution even more
compelling and competitive.
"Our solutions stand out in the market by delivering the highest
level of detection capabilities while keeping ownership costs low.
This is made possible by the built-in efficiencies in our
technology. Our portal is engineered to help cut through the
clutter and noise, allowing IT and security teams to quickly
review, assess, and respond to incidents. Best of all, customers
achieve this level of protection without hiring additional staff or
investing in extra professional services," Usman Choudhary, Chief Product and Technology
Officer, VIPRE Security Group, said.
Choudhary added, "With our latest innovations, the aim is to
empower security teams to maximize their effectiveness, even with
limited internal resources. Our solutions shoulder the burden to
help incident responders in enterprises to quickly and effectively
respond to the ever-changing threat landscape."
Nate Simmons, President,
Cybersecurity and Martech Division, Ziff
Davis, remarked, "This positioning from AV-Comparatives
demonstrates VIPRE's technological proficiency and expertise,
enabling the team to deliver high-performance, sophisticated, and
cost-effective solutions. To further the platform's value, VIPRE
has critically evaluated generative AI to determine how best to
integrate the technology into its products in an impactful manner
for customers."
