Threat & Vulnerability Management Services
Threat & Vulnerability Management Services Executive Overview
- Assess and proactively respond to emerging threats
- Know the security status of your infrastructure
- Prevent spyware from logging user activity
- Enforce security policy
- Reduce deployment and integration risks
In today’s technology-driven environment, enterprises require proactive protection from a multitude of malicious activities. Threats are more sophisticated, more frequent, and on a global, organized scale making difficult to track and block. The demand to protect enterprises is increasing because of the rise in device and user mobility in an ever-changing operating environment. This creates conditions that can lead to identity theft and lost data, including intellectual property, and possibly a loss of business.
EDS’ Threat & Vulnerability Management Service identifies threats and points of vulnerability, implements countermeasures to mitigate the likelihood of a successful breach, and responds quickly to security incidents. Our approach is a scalable but layered approach to secure IT infrastructure, networks and data assets. We take a preventative approach driven by an integrated view of vulnerabilities and threats. This allows us to improve security policy management, compliance reporting and policy enforcement by integrating security layers within EDS’ delivery infrastructure.

Available Features
Endpoint Threat Management is a service that secures desktops, laptops and servers against viruses, malware, spyware and intrusions. This basic layer of security is provided through the use of Anti-Virus, Anti-Spyware and Personal Firewall technologies. Although integrated, the individual technologies are capable of standalone deployment independent of the other components.
- Anti-Virus (AV) protection is a service that provides protection from viruses for end point devices (desktops/laptops/servers). This first line of defense against virus and malware attacks is achieved through the use of AV technology combined with EDS’ operational processes to manage the risks associated with viruses and malware.
- Anti-Spyware (AS) protection is a service that provides protection against spyware for end point devices (desktops/laptops/servers). This first line of defense against spyware, adware and other similar unwanted programs is achieved through the use of AS technology combined with EDS’ operational processes to manage the risks associated with spyware.
- Personal Firewall (PF) protection is a service that manages incoming and outgoing traffic and controls applications, ports and protocols to prevent attacks and intrusions to end point devices (desktops/laptops). One line of defense against intrusions and hacker attacks is achieved through the use of Personal Firewall technology combined with EDS’ operational processes to manage the risks associated with intrusions and hacker attacks.
