What endpoint protection BRANDED IAM uses, how it differs from traditional antivirus, and what to do if it detects a threat.
Traditional antivirus software relies on a database of known virus "signatures" — meaning it only catches threats it's seen before. Modern endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools go further by analyzing behavior patterns to catch zero-day threats that have no known signature.
What We Deploy
BRANDED IAM uses a next-generation endpoint protection platform across all managed devices. It provides:
- Real-time threat detection: Continuous monitoring of all processes and file activity for suspicious behavior.
- Automatic quarantine: Suspected malware is quarantined (isolated) instantly without needing human intervention, stopping spread before it starts.
- Rollback capability: If ransomware begins encrypting files, the system can automatically roll back those changes using volume shadow copies.
- Centralized management: We see alerts and quarantine events across all your devices in real time from our management console.
When a Threat Is Detected
- The threat is automatically quarantined within seconds.
- Our team receives an alert and begins investigation.
- You'll receive an email notification describing what was detected and the automated action taken.
- We'll follow up with a ticket explaining the threat, its severity, and any additional steps needed.
Most detections are resolved automatically and require no action from you. For higher-severity threats, your account manager will contact you directly to coordinate the response.
