Sentinel One – EDR

School children are using AI to write their assignments and they’ve been doing it for years. AI is out there and its more and more common in our technical world. Unfortunately, it is also being used with Virus/Malware/Cryptolocker technology and its beating traditional Antivirus systems with ease.

SentinelOne is a cutting-edge cybersecurity Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) that leverages artificial intelligence (AI) to provide advanced endpoint protection. Unlike traditional antivirus solutions, which rely heavily on signature-based detection methods, SentinelOne uses AI and machine learning to identify and mitigate threats in real-time. This approach enables the system to recognise and respond to new and evolving threats that traditional antivirus software might miss.

One key advantage of AI-based antivirus solutions like SentinelOne is their ability to detect zero-day attacks—new, previously unknown threats that exploit undiscovered vulnerabilities. Traditional antivirus programs struggle with these because they rely on a database of known threats, which must be constantly updated. In contrast, SentinelOne’s AI-driven model analyses behavioural patterns to identify suspicious activities, regardless of whether the threat has been seen before.

Moreover, SentinelOne provides autonomous response capabilities, allowing it to take immediate action without waiting for human intervention. This rapid response is crucial in minimising damage and preventing the spread of malware across a network.

In today’s fast-paced digital environment, the sophistication and speed of cyber threats have outpaced traditional antivirus solutions. By adopting AI-based antivirus systems like SentinelOne, organisations can significantly enhance their cybersecurity posture, ensuring robust protection against both known and unknown threats.
