Yesterday, Kaspersky Lab, a security solutions provider, announced the release of their Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business platform. This solution has been designed to help simplify the IT Security process, allowing users to address varied security endpoints from a single platform.
“We’ve entered the age of high-profile targeted attacks, with sophisticated espionage tools becoming more and more widespread. Cyber-espionage is becoming the most serious threat there is for businesses, and just about any enterprise can be attacked, regardless of its size or market share. All organizations have data that’s valuable to cybercriminals, which in turn can be used as ‘back stairs’ to reach other companies. An intrusion may come either from a cybercriminal seeking personal enrichment, or a nation state looking to steal proprietary or classified information. Every decision maker should keep all this in mind when building a company’s IT security infrastructure,” explained Eugene Kaspersky, Chairman, CEO and Co-Founder of Kaspersky Lab, in a press release yesterday.
There are four levels for the new offering: Core, Select, Advanced and Total. In addition, users may either choose to deploy the full suite of solutions or select the ones that best fit their organization’s needs.

- Tools for Endpoint control, including dynamic whitelisting and custom rules for external USB devices. (Select, Advanced, Total tiers)
