Aether 16 & WatchGuard Cloud - New Endpoint Security Release
03 September 2024
This new endpoint security version brings in new features to help our clients strengthen the security of their systems where our endpoint protection solutions are used. For our partners and MSPs, this release allows them to enhance the protection provided to their clients. Let's take a closer look at all the new capabilities included:
- Endpoint Access Enforcement to reduce infections through lateral movements by monitoring and blocking connections from computers with high risk.
- Block the load of vulnerable drivers to prevent hackers from accessing trusted drivers to disable the agent and the protection.
- Isolation for Linux endpoints denies all communications to and from isolated computers except those required to perform any action from the Endpoint Security product web console, such as containment, remediation, or remote forensic analysis.
- Network Access Enforcement for Android allows network administrators to enable Android devices to check for appropriate endpoint security services before allowing a connection to a corporate network.
- Management of programs that use AMSI technology provides the ability to disable and exclude processes for programs that might cause performance issues.
- Risk exclusion management to manage which file, folder, or extension exclusions do not impact computer risk calculation.
We keep working on adding new features to provide a more comprehensive approach to our customers. Please reach out to the WatchGuard team if you have any questions or want to get started on delivering simplified security solutions.
