eScan vs. Qualys Multi-Vector EDR

eScan's advanced antivirus solution safeguards your home network against malware, viruses, ransomware, and various other threats through a multi-layered strategy. By integrating both contemporary and traditional methods, eScan effectively blocks a diverse array of attacks. Its features encompass web filtering, signature-based malware detection, and behavior analysis, alongside pioneering techniques such as deep learning malware detection, exploit prevention, and heuristic scanning. Moreover, eScan offers comprehensive protections for business endpoints, including endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions, as well as anti-spam measures for email and multi-factor authentication, ensuring robust security for all users. This holistic approach to cybersecurity makes eScan a formidable ally in defending against evolving digital threats.

Traditional endpoint detection and response (EDR) systems primarily focus on monitoring endpoint activities to spot potential threats, leading to a limited perspective that often compromises the accuracy of attack assessments and results in an inadequate grasp of security incidents, which may contribute to a high frequency of false positives and negatives. As a result, organizations frequently find themselves compelled to implement various point solutions and maintain extensive teams to handle incident responses effectively. To overcome these challenges, Qualys presents a groundbreaking multi-vector strategy that capitalizes on the powerful features of its scalable Cloud Platform, thereby enriching EDR with critical context and broad visibility that spans the entire attack lifecycle—from prevention to detection and through to response. The Qualys Multi-Vector EDR brings together diverse contextual factors, including asset discovery, an in-depth software inventory, insights into aging assets, vulnerabilities, exploitable conditions, misconfigurations, detailed endpoint telemetry, and network accessibility, all supported by a robust backend architecture that enables precise correlation for thorough assessment, detection, and response, all within a unified cloud-based solution. This innovative approach not only simplifies the overall process but also significantly enhances organizations' ability to react swiftly and effectively to emerging threats, ensuring more resilient security postures. By integrating comprehensive visibility and contextual intelligence, organizations can improve their incident response strategies dramatically.
