It combines next-generation antivirus (NGAV) with endpoint detection and response (EDR) and proactive threat hunting in a single console with a single agent. The platform is designed to analyze system events to understand normal behavior, allowing it to detect and prevent malicious activity, including fileless and living-off-the-land attacks. For MSPs, it is available through the VMware Partner Connect program, enabling them to offer advanced security services to protect their customers' endpoints and data centers.
