End Point Security

Endpoint security refers to protecting devices (endpoints) like laptops, desktops, mobile devices, servers, and IoT devices from threats. It includes antivirus/antimalware, endpoint detection & response (EDR), behavior monitoring, patch management, data encryption, and policy enforcement to ensure devices connecting to your network are secure.

Because many endpoints connect from remote or low‑bandwidth environments, or via BYOD (bring your own device) practices, which increases exposure to cyber threats. Endpoint security helps protect data, maintain regulatory compliance (like DPA Kenya), reduce risk of breaches, and ensure business continuity—even when devices are offline or in locations with weak network controls.

We partner with top vendors such as Fortinet, Dell Technologies, Check Point, Huawei, and others, choosing solutions that are well supported locally, compatible with your infrastructure, and certified for enterprise environments.

Yes. Modern endpoint solutions include features like local policy enforcement, offline malware scanning, encryption of data at rest, and caching of security updates so that even disconnected devices maintain protection and sync once reconnected.

Traditional antivirus mostly uses signature‑based detection to identify known threats, while EDR adds behavior‑based detection, continuous monitoring, threat hunting, rollback or isolation capabilities, and greater visibility into endpoint activities to detect unknown or advanced attacks.

We design solutions with privacy and regulatory compliance in mind, KB access control, encryption in transit & at rest, audit trails, user consent and data residency controls. We work to ensure that endpoint agents and data handling comply with Kenya’s DPA and relevant laws in other African jurisdictions.

Yes. We configure policies to ensure only devices meeting security standards (patch level, antivirus status, configuration) are allowed to connect. Remote devices can be managed with secure VPNs, identity verification, and continuous endpoint monitoring.

Endpoint security often includes or integrates with patch management tools that identify missing patches, deploy updates, and monitor patch status. Regular updates help close vulnerabilities, reduce risk, and ensure compliance with internal or regulatory requirements.

Through behavior monitoring, anomaly detection, threat intelligence feeds, sandboxing, and EDR tools. Once suspicious behavior is seen, alerts, containment or isolation are triggered to prevent spread.

Yes. We use centralized consoles that let administrators define, deploy, audit, and update security policies across all endpoints, ensuring consistency in protection and visibility into compliance status and incidents.

By defining roles, device types, access levels. Devices can be grouped (e.g. servers, workstations, mobile) and policies applied accordingly. Untrusted or high‑risk devices may have restricted network or data access.

Endpoint security solutions usually provide features like blocking or restricting USB usage, scanning attachments from removable media, enforcing encryption on external drives, and alerting admins when external drives are used.

By deploying mobile device management (MDM) or endpoint agents tailored for mobile OSes (Android, iOS), applying appropriate policies, limiting app permissions, securing firmware, and, for IoT devices, restricting network access, firmware updates, and monitoring for anomalous behavior.

Comprehensive logging of endpoint events (login attempts, file changes, process executions, network connections), central aggregation via SIEM or centralized logs, alerting, dashboards, and audit trail of security incidents.

Very frequently, security vendors push updates daily or multiple times per day. For advanced threats, threat intelligence feeds ensure behavior‑based and signature‑based detection remains current. We ensure endpoints are configured for auto‑updates or regular syncing schedules.

Some resource usage is expected, CPU, memory, disk I/O, especially when scanning or decrypting files. We help size endpoint protection so it doesn’t degrade user experience, and use modern lightweight agents and tuning to minimize impact.

When a compromise is detected, it can be isolated, infected files quarantined or rolled back, logs analyzed, malware removed, and systems restored. We also provide forensic support and root cause analysis to prevent recurrence.

Ongoing agent health checks, update management, threat intelligence monitoring, training for IT/security teams, incident support, periodic audits, and compliance reviews as per service‑level agreement (SLA).

Yes. Endpoint security is part of a layered defense. We integrate with network perimeter security, firewalls, intrusion detection systems, SIEMs, identity/access management systems, to provide coherence and centralized incident visibility.

Very scalable. Systems are designed to support hundreds to thousands of endpoints, multi-site/multi-country deployments, remote device management, and remote monitoring. Agents are lightweight; management is centralized; policies are pushed remotely; and reporting spans all endpoints.
