Introduction to Endpoint Security
Check Point Endpoint Security is an endpoint protection solution that safeguards devices against a wide range of cyber threats. It integrates prevention, detection, and response capabilities to defend against malware, ransomware, phishing, and other targeted attacks. This solution combines local and cloud-based security technologies.
