It's a battleground, and Symantec's Center for Advanced is leading the defensive charge. As we noted in a 2016 blog that accompanied the launch of Symantec Endpoint Protection 14, Symantec offers the most advanced machine learning available for endpoint security based on advanced feature engineering and ensembling. SEP is ranked highest for execution in Gartner's 2018 Magic Quadrant. Symantec's Managed Endpoint Detection and Response Service beefs up SEP and extends clients' in-house skillsets with world-class dedicated experts who specialize in hunting and investigating early indicators of threats, whether the danger is unfolding on-site or in the cloud. Another market-leading product in this lineup--one that's used extensively by financial services--is Symantec's Data Loss Prevention.
