Endpoint protection for IoT de-
vices
www.AmericanSecurityToday.com May 2019 - Edition 44
Many security experts believe IoT
devices must be protected by dedi-
cated security solutions.
This reflects how computers were
historically protected by antivirus
software and later by full-featured
endpoint protection platforms.
Agents can be installed on IoT de-
vices that provide many protective
measures against cyber attacks, , as
well as real-time endpoint detec-
tion and response (EDR).
EDR gives security staff the ability to
investigate attacks as incidents are
happening and respond by taking
remote action on the IoT devices.
For example, isolating it from the

RSA 2020, Carolyn Crandall and Tony Cole sit down to discuss Attivo Networks’ newest
product announcement: Endpoint Detection Net, , which tackles endpoint security challenges
head-on by making every endpoint a decoy designed to disrupt an attacker’s ability to break
out and further infiltrate the network. . It does this without requiring agents on the endpoint
or causing disruption to regular network operations. Learn more at https://attivonetworks.com/
