What’s new in SEP 12.1?
Symantec Insight: Symantec Insight is the only system in the world that tracks the age, prevalence and security rating of nearly every program file on the internet. Because Insight knows what files are new or changed, it takes the most important advantage of cyber-criminals - their ability to generate millions of unique threats - and turns it against them. This means that unlike competitor solutions, SEP 12.1 separates files at risk from those that are safe, for faster and more accurate malware detection
Real-time SONAR 3: Examines programs as they run, identifying and stopping malicious behaviour even for new and previously unknown threats
Browser intrusion prevention: Scans for attacks directed at browser vulnerabilities
Built for virtual environments, to protect virtual infrastructure:
- Virtual image exception - White list files from standard virtual machine image to optimise scanning
- Resource levelling - Randomises scan and update schedules to prevent resource utilisation spikes
- Shared Insight cache - Redirects Insight cloud lookups to a local server to reduce bandwidth and latency
- Virtual client tagging - Endpoint Protection Manager can automatically identify and manage virtual clients.
