Global Enterprise Endpoint Security Market Report to 2027 – Rising Number of Enterprise Endpoints and Mobile Devices With Access to Sensitive Data is Driving Growth – ResearchAndMarkets.com

/in


DUBLIN–()–The “Global Enterprise Endpoint Security Market – Forecasts from 2022 to 2027” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

Endpoint security is the technique of preventing harmful actors and campaigns from exploiting endpoints or entry points of end-user devices such as PCs, laptops, and mobile devices. Endpoint security solutions on a system or cloud protect against cybersecurity threats. Endpoint security has progressed beyond antivirus software to supply comprehensive security against sophisticated malware and new zero-day dangers.

Nation-states, hacktivists, organized crime, and purposeful and unintentional insider threats all pose a hazard to businesses of all sizes. Endpoint security is frequently referred to as cybersecurity’s frontline, and it is one of the first places where businesses attempt to defend their networks. Due to several benefits, such as cost savings with cloud storage, compute scalability, and low maintenance requirements, enterprise use of SaaS-based or cloud-delivered endpoint security solutions continues to grow.

The growing number of enterprise endpoints and mobile devices with access to sensitive data has created a tremendous need for endpoint security solutions, which is expected to drive the market.

In today’s environment, mobile gadgets such as smartphones and tablets have become necessary for both individuals and businesses. The number of employees using their phones for work is fast expanding, and mobile devices and applications have presented a slew of new attack vectors and data security challenges.

These cyber dangers range from Trojans and viruses to botnets and toolkits, and they can have a significant impact on the broader network, putting sensitive and private data at risk. For example, according to the Mobile Security Report 2021 by Check Point, 97 percent of businesses globally were hit by mobile attacks that used several attack vectors. At least one employee in 46 percent of those businesses downloaded a malicious app to their phone.

According to the same report, nearly every firm had at least one smartphone malware assault in 2020. The mobile network was responsible for 93…

In February, Nvidia was hit with a cyberattack by Lapsus$, an international hacking group known for their cyberattacks on enterprises. The group was able to gain access to multiple systems and at least two code-signing certificates, giving the cyberattackers the option to digitally sign malicious code, bypass security defenses and compromise endpoints. Following the attack, at least two binaries not created by Nvidia were found online, signed with the stolen keys. The attack provides a sobering reminder of how machine identities are vulnerable to attack using stolen code-signing certificates. 

Stolen certs show edge and endpoint security’s widening gaps 

Developers use code-signing certificates to verify the authenticity of their apps’ code, endpoint security agents and integration points across networks. Cyberattackers, including Lapsus$ and others, put a high value on these certificates because they can use them to impersonate legitimate device drivers and code to take control of devices, endpoints and sensors. Cyberattackers use this growing technique to distribute malware across endpoints and enterprise networks. 

Modifying code-signing certificates is now one of the most sophisticated, popular approaches to controlling edge and endpoint security devices on a network while launching malware attacks. Cyberattackers continue using Nvidia’s stolen code-signing certificates to disguise malware code as legitimate while attempting to launch attacks. Last year, impersonating legitimate code was integral to the SolarWinds supply chain attack. 

Nvidia having terabytes of data exfiltrated and code-signing certificates stolen show how fragile edge and endpoint security can be. Using stolen code-signing certificates to make device drivers, executables and source code look legitimate is among the toughest endpoint breaches to stop. 

Longstanding gaps in endpoint security are getting wider, enabling more sophisticated breach attempts due to the following:

Absolute Ransomware Response accelerates endpoint recovery for organizations

/in


Absolute Software released Absolute Ransomware Response, enabling customers to strengthen preparedness and accelerate endpoint recovery in the face of the ever-growing threat of ransomware attacks.

Absolute Ransomware Response

With this new offering, part of the company’s Secure Endpoint product portfolio, organizations have the key capabilities and services needed to assess their ransomware preparedness and cyber hygiene across endpoints; ensure mission-critical security applications, such as anti-malware and device management tools, remain healthy and capable of self-healing; and expedite the quarantine and recovery of devices if an attack occurs.

Cybersecurity Ventures predicts that organizations will face a new ransomware attack every two seconds by 2031, up from every 11 seconds in 2021. While the top priority for IT and security teams has historically been securing and restoring critical infrastructure, such as servers and business applications, the accelerated adoption of ‘work-from-anywhere’ has significantly expanded the potential ransomware attack surface – and in turn, has increased the need to extend preparedness and recovery efforts to end user devices.

“The reality is that, while organizations are very concerned about the time to recover from ransomware attacks, they often solely focus on prevention tools, without planning for the worst-case scenario: falling victim to an attack,” said Eric Hanselman, Principal Research Analyst at 451 Research, part of S&P Global Market Intelligence, in a recent webinar. “By building a plan and improving their preparedness and simplifying the endpoint recovery process for their organizations, they can accelerate businesses’ ability to recover and resume operations.”

“Ransomware is more prevalent, more sophisticated, and more capable of disruption and damage than ever and organizations need to plan for ‘when,’ not ‘if,’ they are successfully attacked,” said John Herrema, EVP of Product & Strategy at Absolute. “When a ransomware attack occurs, organizations are often forced to weigh the risks of cutting off all communication with an infected device, losing the ability to restore or recover it, or leaving the door open for…
