According to research by Check Point, throughout 2021, the weekly average of ransomware attacks focused on company networks expanded by 50% in comparison to 2020. &nbsp;It is now critical for businesses to deploy robust endpoint security solutions that protect their data stored across endpoints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_Endpoint_Security\"><\/span><strong>What Is Endpoint Security?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Endpoint security is the method of protecting endpoint devices such as desktops, laptops, mobile phones, and tablets from cyberattacks. These endpoints are the gate to access the organization\u2019s network which can then be used by malicious attackers for cyberattacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"628\" src=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/What-are-endpoints.jpg\" alt=\"What Is Endpoint Security?\" class=\"wp-image-13082\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/What-are-endpoints.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/What-are-endpoints-300x157.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/What-are-endpoints-1024x536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.esds.co.in\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/02\/What-are-endpoints-150x79.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Endpoint security solutions help businesses to protect these endpoints or end-user devices connected to the organization\u2019s networks or cloud from cyber threats. No matter how many new end-users are added to a company\u2019s network, endpoint security ensures that it is secure at all times from any cyberattack.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_Endpoint_Security_is_important_for_businesses\"><\/span><strong>Why Endpoint Security is important for businesses?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In this digital era, data is the most crucial asset for any organization. The malicious attackers know this, therefore, are always active to exploit the loopholes in an organization\u2019s security. In the past, as the workforce was not remotely working, and cyberattacks weren\u2019t frequent, centralized network protection was enough. However, due to many endpoints in today\u2019s organization\u2019s network, which only tend to grow, security parameters that have new layers of security to combat rising cyberattacks are essential. As per a study by the Ponemon Institute; the average cost of endpoint attacks has accelerated from an average of $7. 1 million to $8.94 million. Furthermore, 68% of the respondents registered that the frequency of attacks against endpoints has increased over the last year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This is when endpoint security becomes of paramount importance that can analyze, detect, then block and contain cyber-attacks as they happen. Moreover, organizations also need technologies and security expertise that can anticipate threats and block them before happening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-youtube aligncenter wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"ESDS Managed Security | Security Services | Digital &amp; Web Security | ESDS\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/VE9jnw84rxM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_does_Endpoint_Security_work\"><\/span><strong>How does Endpoint Security work?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">To find the most workable endpoint security solution for your business, it is vital to know how endpoint security works and acts together with other security components. Here is how primarily endpoint security works, irrespective of the industry type<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>1. <\/strong>The first step is to study a company\u2019s network thoroughly, to understand the number of endpoints and the vulnerabilities in the existing network. An analysis also needs to be done for Identity and Access Management (IAM) to clearly define who has access to which resource. Endpoint security analyses all the files that enter the organizations\u2019 network and compares them against the threat information database stored in the cloud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>2.<\/strong> The second step is to arrange and sort all the endpoints on the network and choose a security solution for each layer depending on the technology. The security solution layers are based on components such as hardware, software, cloud, and network being used. However, certain endpoint security solutions providers cover your full range of needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong>3.<\/strong> The third step is about implementing the chosen solution and focusing on the network monitoring mode. A clear understanding of how each security layer is performing is needed to find the vulnerability in the network. If any vulnerability is detected, the entire process needs to be repeated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_are_the_benefits_of_Endpoint_Security\"><\/span><strong>What are the benefits of Endpoint Security?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">All the home and personal devices such as desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones are prone to attacks from cybercriminals every minute of the day.
