The Symantec Endpoint Security Approach

At Symantec, a division of Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO), we recognize the challenges CISO and SOC analysts are facing as they search for the best endpoint security solution to protect the modern enterprise.  These challenges have been compounded by the increase in advanced virulent malware strains, complexity of the cloud journey and of course COVID-19-related, unplanned, remote workforce.  Some of the challenges we see include:

• The need to evaluate and coordinate multiple security vendors, technologies, and dashboards
• Multiple point solutions seemingly required for complete endpoint protection
• A plethora of agents and the complexities related to deploying and managing them
• Hiring and retaining security talent needed to run all these tools is costly and challenging
• Despite the huge effort to build a seamless solution via various vendors, you may still end up with security gaps, configuration errors, and operational risks 
• High ongoing maintenance and costs

In response to what we have been hearing, we are constantly innovating keeping the challenges large enterprises face in mind. Our focus is on delivering the best-in-class protection and ROI to delight our customers -both Security Analysts and CISOs alike. We have been listening to our customers and are launching the following enhancements to our Symantec Endpoint Security Complete (SESC) solution now:
