Randy Franklin Smith, from Ultimate Windows Security.com, discusses the range of endpoint security threats and the need for: * Integration and consolidated management for core endpoint security technologies * Centralized patch management for multiple software vendors and platforms * Scalability in terms of endpoint quantity and granularity or different endpoint types and profiles * Integration with Active Directory to leverage organization and policy information * Visibility into endpoint discovery, agent status and operation * Wake On LAN capability to coordinate system security maintenance with power management and green initiatives

The need for integration and consolidation in endpoint security
Too many management interfacesToo many agents…
Prioritizing
What combination of technologies best address your core risks?
Which risks do you feel like you may need a best of breed point solution?
Endpoint security suites
No suite does it allWhich one best covers your core risks?
Everyone claims integration but close examination neededAgentUIWindows and non-Windows Integration with Active Directory to leverage
organization and policy informationSilos within the productSingle pane of glass
Endpoint security suites
Additional issuesCentralized patch management for multiple software vendors and platforms
Scalability in terms of endpoint quantity and granularity or different endpoint types and profiles
Visibility into endpoint discovery, agent status and operation
Wake On LAN capability to coordinate system security maintenance with power management and green initiatives
Bottom Line
Endpoint security is a many headed beastRequires a coordinated, planned and strategic
approachAvoid deploying point solutions to address this
week’s security scareThe right suite covers your core risks, your
core platforms and provides real integration
