ESET Endpoint Antivirus MAC
Comprehensive protection for Mac preserving network speed
ESET Endpoint Antivirus for macOS
Delivers complete protection whilst utilizing low system demands. Fully manageable remotely. Enables your organization to:
Management server
ESET Security Management Center manages endpoint products from a single pane of glass and can be installed on Windows or Linux. As an alternative to on-premise installation, customers with up to 250 seats can manage their endpoints via ESET Cloud Administrator.
Cross platform support
ESET Endpoint Products support all operating systems including Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android. Not only can all endpoint product be managed from a single pane of glass, but Mobile Device Management for iOS and Android is fully built in as well.
Multilayered defense
A single layer of defense is not enough for today’s evolving threat landscape. All ESET’s endpoint products have the ability to detect malware pre-execution, during execution and post-execution. Focusing on the whole of the malware lifecycle, not just on a specific part, allows ESET to provide the highest level of protection possible.
PROBLEM
Zero-day threats are a major concern for businesses due to them not knowing how to protect against something that they have never seen before.
SOLUTION
- ESET endpoint products leverage heuristics and machine learning as part of our multilayered approach to prevent and protect against never before seen malware.
- 13 global R&D labs help to quickly respond to malware after their first incidence anywhere across the globe.
- ESET’s cloud malware protection system automatically protects against new threats without the need to wait for the next detection update.
Machine Learning
All ESET Endpoint products currently use machine learning in conjunction with all of our other layers of defense and have done so since 1997. Specifically, machine learning is used in the form of consolidated output and neural networks. For a deep inspection of the network, admins can turn on the special aggressive machine learning mode that works even without internet connection.
macOS Server Support
Ensures the solution does not interfere with macOS Server system and the most commonly used applications. Support for macOS Server for Mac 10.9 and above.
ESET LiveGrid®
Whenever a zero-day threat such as ransomware is seen, the file is sent to our cloud-based malware protection system – LiveGrid®, where the threat is detonated and behavior is monitored. Results of this system are provided to all endpoints globally within minutes without requiring any updates.
DNA Detections
Detection types range from very specific hashes to ESET DNA Detections, which are complex definitions of malicious behavior and malware characteristics. While the malicious code can be easily modified or obfuscated by attackers, the behavior of objects cannot be changed so easily and ESET DNA Detections are designed to take advantage of this principle.
In-product Sandbox
This helps to identify the real behavior hidden underneath the surface of obfuscated malware. Utilizing this technology, ESET solutions emulate different components of computer hardware and software to execute a suspicious sample in an isolated virtualized environment.
Reputation & Cache
When inspecting a file or URL, before any scanning takes place, our products check the local cache for known malicious or whitelisted benign objects. This improves scanning performance.
System requirements
- ESET Endpoint Antivirus for macOS (latest version) works with OS X/macOS 10.9 and later
- Compatible with ESET Security Management Center (7.x) and ESET Remote Administrator (6.x)
