In today’s connected world, organisations in every industry are worried about cyber threats and data breaches. To combat these evolving threats, many organisations are turning to Next Generation Anti-Virus (NGAV) solutions.
This article will discuss NGAV, why organisations should use it, and answer common questions about this new technology.
“As Trustack’s technical director, I recognise the critical importance of staying ahead of the ever-evolving cyber threats that organisations face to keep ourselves and our clients business as secure as possible. Traditional antivirus solutions are no longer sufficient in combating sophisticated attacks. That’s why we have implemented Next Generation Anti-Virus (NGAV) as a proactive measure to enhance our cyber security defence offerings. NGAV goes beyond traditional antivirus software by leveraging advanced techniques such as behaviour-based detection, machine learning algorithms, and real-time threat intelligence. This enables us to detect and prevent both known and unknown threats, including zero-day attacks that pose a significant risk. This combined with our hosted SoC solutions provides a highly secure, proactive threat hunting set of defences for ourselves and our clients. The behaviour-based approach allows us to identify suspicious activities and block malicious behaviour before it can cause harm to business systems and compromise valuable data.
In summary, Next Generation Anti-Virus empowers us to stay one step ahead of cyber threats, detect and prevent advanced attacks, and safeguard our critical assets. NGAV has become an essential investment for all businesses in their cyber security arsenal.”
