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.

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:

Failed Endpoint Protection caused 46% of 2021 Data Breaches

Based on ITRC’s annual 2021 data breach report, one should choose improvements in endpoint protection over other cybersecurity choices for 2022 should do more to improve malware risk mitigation and decrease IT/Sec-Ops costs. We believe the best way to achieve this is by filling detection gaps with zero trust WITHIN endpoints.

AppGuard Defeats AvosLocker Ransomware

After about five seconds, the adversary has total undetectable, remote control of the targeted host. AvosLocker Ransomware manipulates and triggers Windows Safe Mode to evade detection defenses. AppGuard, a protection tool applying zero trust principles within endpoints, prevents it from getting this far.
