Pro-Active Cyber Protection

Increasing losses from cyber crime have become a challenge for enterprises of all sizes. This has led to a dramatic increase in security spending over the past five years. Despite the increased budget, cyber security-related losses have doubled, from $3 trillion to $6 trillion over the same period, according to Cybersecurity Ventures. 

The reason is that legacy and next-generation antivirus tools are increasingly ineffective against advanced attacks. Currently available endpoint solutions have a high cost per endpoint, high cost to operate, bloated agents, a growing number of ineffective modules and do not protect against the most damaging cyber attacks.

Innovative technology developed by Morphisec offering better endpoint security at a lower cost is now possible for every business. Emerging from Israel’s national cybersecurity center, Morphisec fundamentally alters the cyber security landscape with its moving target defense technology, which keeps organisations consistently ahead of attacks. The company has recently launched Morphisec Guard 5.0.

Guard 5.0 uses the company’s patented Moving Target Defense technology to protect against advanced attacks and combines it with enhancements for native security controls of Windows 10, so businesses don’t have to pay for what they already have. 

This powerful combination provides a more effective and lower-cost alternative to other endpoint security stacks. According to Morphisec’s VP of Product Management, Netta Schmeidler, the Morphisec Guard 5.0 product can help businesses achieve two important goals.

• Prevent the breaches that bypass their antivirus and EDR tools.

• Make sure no one has to pay for security features that the operating system already has covered.

By preventing advanced, zero-day attacks where legacy and NGAV tools fail and providing a lower-cost alternative to endpoint security solutions, the new features of Morphisec Guard 5.0 bring enterprise-level control and visibility into Windows native security, such as Windows’ antivirus (Defender), drive encryption (BitLocker), personal firewall, and device control. 

Furthermore, the Morphisec Security Center, an on-premises or cloud-based management console, provides end-to-end visibility into organization-wide threats, including those prevented by Microsoft Defender AV and those thwarted by Morphisec’s Moving Target Defense technology.

Moving Target Defense creates a zero-trust execution environment by morphing the application memory. By changing the memory structure of current applications, only trusted code is allowed to execute. 

This approach stops attacks deterministically and automatically, without requiring knowledge of threat type or relying on indicators of compromise (IOC), making it highly effective against zero-day and unknown threats.

In the COVID-19 era, business continuity for remote employees can be maintained thanks to Morphisec’s advanced endpoint protection solution that instantly hardens any workstation anywhere, preventing the most advanced attacks without collecting any personal information.

The proactive endpoint protection provided by Morphisec prevents the most dangerous cyber attacks. Together, the advanced capabilities of Guard 5.0 “ensure organistations are able to deliver greater protection and simplicity at a much lower cost.
