Sangfor Announces the Only Solution Available That Kills Ransomware in 3 Seconds Sangfor Technologies announced their new 3 Seconds to Kill Ransomware solution. It is a bold statement backed up by bold new technology. The 3 Seconds to Kill Ransomware solution, based on Sangfor’s XDDR (eXtended Detection, Defense & Response) integration framework, offers organizations big and small a modular, robust anti-ransomware capability that can be tailored to their needs. Core to 3 Seconds to Kill Ransomware are the new Endpoint Secure 6.0.2 and new Network Secure advanced firewall. Endpoint Secure has been the future of endpoint security, and the far future is now. With cutting-edge anti-ransomware technology, Sangfor has tested and verified that Endpoint Secure can detect and kill ransomware or other advanced persistent threats (APTs) in as little as 3 seconds. Moreover, if any files have been encrypted, accurate file rollback or VSS restoration occurs starting at 4 seconds. This is why AV-Test, a leading independent organization specializing in IT security product evaluation, has consistently awarded Sangfor Endpoint Secure TOP PRODUCT for its performance and detection capabilities. Network Secure can detect suspicious activity like a workstation attempting to connect to a command & control server. Once detected, Network Secure will direct Endpoint Secure to run local scans to see if an infection or breach has occurred. If so, Network Secure can direct Endpoint Secure to microsegment and disconnect from the network to prevent lateral spread. Network Secure has long been a Visionary in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Network Firewalls and has received the “RECOMMENDED” rating (the highest honor offered) from the independent testing organization, CyberRatings. Other components of 3 Seconds to Kill Ransomware include Cyber Command for threat hunting and SOAR, Cyber Guardian MDR for managed services, and HCI for backup. The integration of each component in the 3 Seconds to Kill Ransomware solution covers one or more steps in the ransomware attack kill chain, ensuring rapid detection and response and always-on threat hunting, providing complete protection against ransomware and APTs. Join Sangfor for an exclusive webinar on December 5, 2023, celebrating the launch of the 3 Seconds to Kill Ransomware solution. Guy Rosefelt, Sangfor Chief Product Officer, will offer a deep dive into this groundbreaking solution, including a demonstration showcasing how quickly and accurately it neutralizes threats.
