Posture Check: Are You Still Relying On AV To Protect Your Business?
Symantec, Thursday, September 4th, 2025
Why traditional security tools don't cut it anymore-and what you can implement instead
- Traditional AV tools only provide partial protection to today's sophisticated threats. It's possible (and easier than you think) to fully protect your assets.
- You can drastically slash the number of threats you're up against by reducing your attack surface, using solutions built on a positive security model.
- A positive security model reduces risk by only allowing trusted apps and processes to run, blocking everything else by default.
Today's threats are on the ultimate smash-and-grab tour, with the headliners playing the same tune as Take the Money and Run. Not only are today's threats persistently pricey (a single breach costs $4.4 million), they're getting more aggressive, too.
