In episode 90 of the Cybersecurity Minute, Frank Domizio discusses endpoint security.
00:50 — Endpoints are the entry points to your network and can include laptops, desktops, mobile devices, servers, and more. These endpoints are often the weakest link in security chains, and they frequently are targeted by cyber criminals with malware, phishing attacks, and other types of threats.
01:23 — Now, endpoint security is also important because of the growing trend of remote work. With more employees working from home or using personal devices for work purposes, endpoints are no longer confined to the traditional office environment.
01:45 — One example of an effective endpoint security tool is Palo Alto Networks’ Cortex, which is a next-generation endpoint protection platform that uses behavioral analytics and machine learning (ML) to detect and prevent threats.
02:08 — Cortex also integrates with other security tools like firewalls and threat intelligence platforms. Endpoint security is important in today’s remote landscape, so make sure you’re investing in the right tools to protect your organization.
