Endpoint protection refers to the tools and practices used to secure devices (laptops, desktops, mobile devices) that connect to a network.
Why it matters:
- Endpoints are common entry points for attacks.
- Combines antivirus, anti-malware, firewalls, and behavioral analysis.
- Essential for hybrid and remote work environments.
Pro tip: Centralized endpoint management ensures updates and patches are applied consistently across all devices.
