GoSecure Next-Gen Antivirus vs Trend Micro ScanMail comparison

Next-generation antivirus or traditional AV? Unfortunately, many organizations find themselves making an either/or decision – purchase traditional AV or NGAV, but not both. With GoSecure Next-Gen Antivirus, you get the best of both worlds, plus management from the industry-leading GoSecure Advanced Response Center.

GoSecure Next-Gen Antivirus (NGAV) offers a compelling selection of capabilities, far beyond traditional AV but still covering the basics of this tried and true security technology. While some would tell you that traditional AV is obsolete, GoSecure believes you need a strong combination of traditional and next-gen to quickly, and effectively, protect endpoints. Malicious files taking advantage of exploits via file-less attacks is the new normal. Detecting, and protecting, against these multi-faceted attacks requires multiple approaches to endpoint security, and GoSecure NGAV delivers.

More than 90 percent of targeted attacks begin with a spear phishing email, which means your mail server security is more important than ever. Unfortunately, most mail server security solutions, including the limited set of built-in protections in Microsoft® Exchange™ 2013 and 2016, rely on pattern file updates, which only detect traditional malware. They don’t include specific protections to detect malicious URLs or document exploits commonly used in targeted attacks or advanced persistent threats (APTs).

ScanMail™ Suite for Microsoft® Exchange™ stops highly targeted email attacks and spear phishing by using document exploit detection, enhanced web reputation, and sandboxing as part of a custom APT defense—protection you don’t get with other solutions. In addition, only ScanMail blocks traditional malware with email, file, and web reputation technology and correlated global threat intelligence from Trend Micro™ Smart Protection Network™ cloud-based security.

Time-saving features like central management, search and destroy, and role-based access have earned ScanMail its reputation as one of the simplest security solutions to setup and operate.
