Frost Radar™: Endpoint Security, 2023

For the purposes of this research, an endpoint is a physical device that connects to a network system. This includes desktop computers, laptops, mobile devices, virtual machines, servers, and IoT devices.

Endpoints are the most vulnerable and exploited part of any network. The average organization manages thousands of endpoints accessing its corporate network. Across industries and companies of various sizes, IT leaders must manage a rapidly growing number of endpoints. This is partly due to employees using personal devices to conduct business.

Endpoint security is typically host-based. It protects computing devices such as laptops, desktops, tablets, servers, and smartphones from malware, cyberattacks, and unwanted applications. IoT device endpoints must also be secured.

Market competitors deliver endpoint security solutions which protect devices from a wide range of threats by ensuring healthy device posture and preventing device exploitation.
