Antivirus software is designed to detect, block, and remove common forms of malware such as viruses, spyware, and ransomware. It’s the first line of defence for any device connected to your network.

Endpoint protection, on the other hand, goes much further. It’s a complete security solution that protects all devices connected to your business network, including laptops, desktops, mobile phones, and servers. Endpoint protection includes antivirus, but also offers advanced threat detection, behaviour monitoring, encryption management, and remote device control.

At Edmondson’s, we recommend endpoint protection for businesses rather than standard antivirus. This ensures that every connected device, whether on-site or remote, is monitored and protected in real-time. It also allows your IT support team to respond instantly to potential threats.
