With the increasing adoption of hybrid cloud, remote work, and artificial intelligence to boost productivity, the risk of network threats has also risen. Endpoints, crucial for service processing and data storage, have become prime targets for threats. To address these challenges, Huawei's HiSec Endpoint innovatively combines Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), Network Admission Control (NAC), and Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) capabilities. This integration ensures zero-trust access, advanced threat defense, and efficient data recovery. HiSec Endpoint can be seamlessly deployed on PCs, laptops, and servers to safeguard critical data assets.
Huawei HiSec Endpoint boasts four key innovations: First, integrated zero-trust secure access. A single endpoint agent and a unified policy engine offer a seamless zero-trust access experience for both internal and external users, continuously verifying identities and monitoring endpoint risks in real-time. It collaborates with switches, WLAN devices, and security devices across the network to enforce dynamic micro-segmentation and prevent lateral threat movement. Second, AI-driven detection. Utilizing AI for static and dynamic behavior analysis, Huawei identifies advanced and unknown threats with a 30% higher detection rate compared to traditional antivirus databases. Third, deep source tracing. Huawei's proprietary endpoint-cloud graph engine can trace up to 100 hops to precisely locate the origin of attacks. Fourth, data recovery. Real-time monitoring triggers automatic backups upon detecting unusual file operations or encryption activities. Additionally, encrypted files compromised by ransomware can be swiftly recovered with a single click, ensuring data integrity and security.
In the realm of endpoint security, Huawei remains committed to continuous technological innovation and advancement, driven by customer needs. We will bolster our investments in endpoint-network collaboration and AI-driven threat analysis and operations, consistently enhancing our endpoint security protections. Our goal is to develop a more robust and intelligent endpoint protection system, ensuring comprehensive security for businesses.
