Comodo Endpoint Security Manager Protects Enterprise Data With DDP

Jersey City, N.J., — March 12
Rather than permit executable computer files to install themselves unless they appear on a blacklist, Comodo's Endpoint Security Manager protects enterprise data on a new model: default-deny protection (DDP).

The default-deny model refuses by default to execute any files, as opposed to the default-allow model.

Comodo Endpoint Security Manager comprises Comodo's firewall and its proprietary antivirus software. The protection software quarantines any software file entering a computer system unless it appears on Comodo's whitelist of files known to be harmless. System users may then choose to allow the quarantined files to install and execute.

"Comodo DDP puts control back into the hands of the computer user or administrator," said Melih Abdulhayoglu, CEO and chief security architect of Comodo. "Default-deny protection is one of the strongest ways to guard a single laptop or desktop, or an entire network."

The whitelist of allowable files in Comodo Endpoint Security Manager now exceeds 2 million.

Comodo Endpoint Security Manager allows network managers to control security settings remotely.
