AppGuard stops the malware that AV, EDR & XDR miss

Malware makes headlines because it evades AV, EDR, XDR and other pattern matching technologies.

Adding AppGuard to your security stack, ends the ineffectiveness of accruing evermore malware detection tools that still fail to stop the latest malware attacks. AppGuard protects you, not by doing more of the same a little differently, but by taking a completely different approach, blocking malware techniques instead of relying on detection or AI or ML to make an educated guess if something is harmful or not. This defeats what others miss entirely or detect much later.

With AppGuard, enterprises get better protection, fewer alerts from detection tools and need less cyber labor; all this without slowing endpoints, and without creating more chaos than value.

Zero Trust Endpoint Security Solution Company of the Year 2024

AppGuard emerged as a Zero Trust Endpoint Security Solution Company of the Year 2024 after an exhaustive evaluation by an expert panel of C-level executives, industry thought leaders, and the editorial board of Enterprise Security magazine.

AppGuard is the essential layer in your defenses

more_up

Makes existing defenses better

Stops attacks that AV, EDR and XDR miss by not allowing what malware needs to do instead of having to recognize the malware itself.

trending_down

Reduces cyber chaos and costs

Stops attacks in real-time, before EDR can even generate an alert to be investigated or a mess that needs to be cleaned.

Lightweight and Lite Operations

One-fifth the footprint of Defender; typically runs months without any policy tuning and produces no “detect & react” alerts.

Protection from your Apps

Hackers use your Apps to harm your systems. AppGuard's dynamic containment prevents adversaries from using your applications to do harm when they are unpatched, zero-day exploited, or hijacked by weaponized documents.

Auto-Adapts to Change

Unlike application control and other tools that require constant policy updates, AppGuard auto adapts to application updates and malware technique permutations; even when you are offline.

Stops Malware, Not Users

Users are able to carry on as usual, most don't even know AppGuard is there, except when they try to do something IT/Sec-Ops doesn’t want them to do!

Currently protecting tens of thousands of organizations and millions of endpoints:

Three Web Browsers are Better than One

One web browser for all web browsing can expose employer secrets and assets to greater risks. Three web browsers can be more secure than one by separating sensitive work from less sensitive work and from personal activities. Adding AppGuard to your endpoints, protects them from attacks, protects web browsers from their PC, protects PCs from their web browsers, and protects web browsers from other web browsers.

Strengthening Cybersecurity in Ports and Shipping

Cyber threats are increasingly targeting port and shipping operations, with traditional antivirus (AV) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions often failing to stop sophisticated attacks. Recent incidents have shown that ransomware can cause massive disruptions, affecting global supply chains. This blog post delves into why existing defenses fall short and how enhancing malware protection can safeguard against these evolving threats.

2024 Lookback – Malware Attacks that Beat EDR/XDR

Enterprises rarely reveal what endpoint protection tools were in place during a malware incident or breach. Given the size of EDR/XDR adopting enterprises, let's recap why there are malware detection gaps, what malware incidents probably evaded EDR/XDR, and what enterprises can do to mitigate risks from their malware detection gaps.
