 Hello and welcome to this video.

0:00:03.900000 --> 0:00:09.460000
 In this video, I've titled it categories
 of endpoint protection.

0:00:09.460000 --> 0:00:11.320000
 It's going to be a
 very brief video.

0:00:11.320000 --> 0:00:15.100000
 I'm just going to go over the topic
 of what is endpoint protection, so

0:00:15.100000 --> 0:00:18.880000
 you're familiar with that term and real
 quickly just give you some different

0:00:18.880000 --> 0:00:22.000000
 categories of endpoint protection.


0:00:22.000000 --> 0:00:24.760000
 And then we'll go into more details
 of what each of those categories are

0:00:24.760000 --> 0:00:26.820000
 in different videos.

0:00:26.820000 --> 0:00:31.440000
 So, maybe you've never heard this
 term before, endpoint protection.

0:00:31.440000 --> 0:00:33.140000
 What is that talking about?

0:00:33.140000 --> 0:00:37.840000
 Well, certainly you have data in your
 laptop, in your PC, in your server

0:00:37.840000 --> 0:00:39.340000
 that's critical to you.

0:00:39.340000 --> 0:00:42.960000
 You do not want malicious actors
 getting a hold of that data.

0:00:42.960000 --> 0:00:46.260000
 I'm sure you can imagine certain types
 of data that would be very detrimental

0:00:46.260000 --> 0:00:50.400000
 to you if somebody got a hold
 of it and used it against you.

0:00:50.400000 --> 0:00:56.320000
 So, in a network, we need multiple lines
 of defense to protect that critical

0:00:56.320000 --> 0:01:00.740000
 sensitive data. We should have
 firewalls in place somewhere.

0:01:00.740000 --> 0:01:05.160000
 We should have routers that have access
 lists that are password protected.

0:01:05.160000 --> 0:01:09.400000
 We should have switches that also might
 have maybe VLAN access lists,

0:01:09.400000 --> 0:01:13.820000
 private VLANs, other features
 on the switches itself.

0:01:13.820000 --> 0:01:16.800000
 And then we should also have it as a
 very last line of defense endpoint

0:01:16.800000 --> 0:01:19.660000
 protection. What is that?

0:01:19.660000 --> 0:01:23.420000
 So, endpoint protection is basically
 just a fancy term that says, what

0:01:23.420000 --> 0:01:28.480000
 do you have on your laptop or server
 itself as a last line of defense

0:01:28.480000 --> 0:01:31.000000
 to protect against malware?

0:01:31.000000 --> 0:01:35.740000
 Typically, this takes the form of some
 sort of software or multiple types

0:01:35.740000 --> 0:01:41.560000
 of applications or software running
 in parallel on your end system.

0:01:41.560000 --> 0:01:44.420000
 So, that's what we really mean
 by endpoint protection.

0:01:44.420000 --> 0:01:48.900000
 So, there's more than one type
 of endpoint protection.

0:01:48.900000 --> 0:01:52.560000
 There's more than one type of software
 you want running on your server

0:01:52.560000 --> 0:01:57.060000
 or your laptop to protect you in the
 event that all those other layers

0:01:57.060000 --> 0:02:01.160000
 of protection, your firewall, your
 cloud web security, whatever it is,

0:02:01.160000 --> 0:02:05.960000
 fail and stuff gets through and ultimately
 ends up on your laptop.

0:02:05.960000 --> 0:02:09.760000
 So, those categories of endpoint protection
 that you could have take the

0:02:09.760000 --> 0:02:14.620000
 form of antivirus software, most operating
 systems already have some flavor

0:02:14.620000 --> 0:02:18.940000
 of antivirus software pre-installed,
 but you can certainly download other

0:02:18.940000 --> 0:02:22.020000
 ones, either free
 or paid versions.

0:02:22.020000 --> 0:02:29.260000
 Anti-spyware to prevent people from installing
 keyloggers and other things.

0:02:29.260000 --> 0:02:34.940000
 Malware analysis and protection software,
 personal firewalls, certainly

0:02:34.940000 --> 0:02:40.960000
 you could encrypt
 your information.

0:02:40.960000 --> 0:02:42.700000
 Malware analysis and protection software,
 which is very important.

0:02:42.700000 --> 0:02:42.940000
 It's a very important thing to do
 with the endpoint protection.

0:02:42.940000 --> 0:02:46.220000
 So, you can also use some sort of
 virtual private networks as well.

0:02:46.220000 --> 0:02:50.640000
 So, all of those because they're actually
 installed and utilized on the

0:02:50.640000 --> 0:02:55.220000
 endpoint itself, once again the endpoint
 is your server, your laptop,

0:02:55.220000 --> 0:02:59.540000
 your tablet, all of those would be
 categories of endpoint protection.

0:02:59.540000 --> 0:03:03.240000
 We will get into more details of what
 each one of those are and give you

0:03:03.240000 --> 0:03:04.980000
 some examples of those coming up.

0:03:04.980000 --> 0:03:07.540000
 So, thank you very much
 for watching this video.
