Problem: The Ever-Present Risks to End User Devices

In today's connected world, devices used by employees, whether remote or on-premises, are constantly exposed to a range of cyber threats. Malicious attacks, such as malware and ransomware, leverage vulnerabilities to infiltrate systems. Phishing attempts trick users into disclosing sensitive information, leading to data breaches and compliance issues. Additionally, exposure to harmful online content can reduce productivity and pose legal challenges. The myriad of devices and operating systems in use complicates the process of securing each one effectively. Traditional security measures can be difficult to deploy, especially on unmanaged devices, and they often fail to cover employees who are on the move or working remotely.

Solution: Control D – Secure End User Devices Protection
