Breakdown of core features

Network attack protection

ESET Network Attack Protection improves the detection of known vulnerabilities. It can prevent ransomware from ever infecting a system by stopping exploits at the network level. It constitutes another important layer of protection against the spread of malware, network-conducted attacks, and exploitation of vulnerabilities for which a patch has not yet been released or deployed.

Botnet protection

The platform’s Botnet Protection detects malicious communication used by botnets and, at the same time, pinpoints the offending processes. It blocks any identified malicious communication and reports it to the user.

Machine learning

ESET Endpoint Security uses machine learning in conjunction with other defense layers. Specifically, it uses machine learning in the form of consolidated output and neural networks. For an in-depth network inspection, admins can turn on the special aggressive machine learning mode that works with or without an internet connection.

Advanced Memory Scanner

Advanced Memory Scanner defends against fileless malware by monitoring the behavior of malicious processes and scanning them once they decloak in memory. Fileless malware operates without needing persistent components in the file system that are conventionally detectable. Memory scanning can successfully discover and stop such malicious attacks.
