Cybercriminals are becoming more sophisticated, as the variety of endpoints include, not just PCs and servers, but laptops, smartphones, tablets, virtual servers and virtual desktops. With the proliferation of such devices, stealthy and insidious cybercriminals prove their mettle with the sheer volume of attacks, which amounts to about 4.3 million malictious files each month. The traditional endpoint security tool – the antivirus software – is no longer effective on a stand-alone basis.
Symantec commissioned the 2012 Endpoint Security Best Practices Survey to see how IT is coping with endpoint security. The findings show a wide variance between how the best and worst organizations handle endpoint security in terms of practices. Ultimately, those organizations employing best practices are enjoying dramatically better outcomes.
