Endpoint policies, updates, and response
Endpoint security support can cover antivirus policies, operating system and application updates, account settings, peripheral access, and follow-up for unusual device activity.
The supported devices and controls depend on the endpoint tools and policies already used by the organization.
Protection and management for employee computers, laptops, and mobile work devices.
Software and policies that help detect and reduce the impact of malware and suspicious programs on devices.
Reviewing and applying operating system, browser, office software, and client updates to address known issues.
Rules for devices such as USB drives and removable storage that can affect data access and malware exposure.
Unmanaged endpoints create risk
Devices may be at different patch levels, use different applications, or follow different access rules. That can make it harder to understand which endpoints need attention.
A documented baseline and a consistent review process help IT teams track issues and coordinate follow-up without promising that every threat can be prevented.
Endpoint policy and maintenance support
Controls are reviewed within the organization’s approved security policies and available management tools.
Central antivirus policies
Apply and manage antivirus scanning, real-time protection, exceptions, and alert notifications across employee computers.
Operating system and application patches
Review and update Windows, browsers, office suites, collaboration tools, and common applications.
Local accounts, permissions, and hardening
Review local administrator accounts, sharing, startup items, and higher-risk device settings.
USB and peripheral access controls
Define and record access to removable drives and selected peripherals according to organizational requirements.
Malware investigation and device isolation
Investigate alerts or suspicious activity and coordinate device isolation, cleanup, and recovery.
Endpoint inspections and employee guidance
Check protection coverage, update status, software, and device practices and provide practical recommendations.
Make endpoint issues easier to track
Consistent maintenance records help teams see which devices need updates, configuration review, or further investigation.
For shared storage permissions and file access, see our File Storage and Security service.
Apply a documented antivirus and security baseline across workplace devices.
Review patch status and identify updates that need scheduling.
Clarify the steps for reviewing alerts, isolating a device, and coordinating recovery.
Keep device baselines and maintenance records available for ongoing review.
