DALLAS, April 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- What's the
news? AT&T* has launched a managed endpoint security
solution through its alliance with SentinelOne. AT&T Managed
Endpoint Security with SentinelOne correlates the detection of
endpoint threats through a single software agent that consolidates
Antivirus, Endpoint Protection, Endpoint Detection and Response,
and IoT security functions. The new solution provides comprehensive
endpoint protection against ransomware and other cyberattacks,
while also detecting highly advanced threats within an enterprise
network or cloud environment.
AT&T Managed Endpoint Security with SentinelOne includes
24x7 threat monitoring and management by AT&T Security
Operations Center (SOC) analysts. When used with AT&T Managed
Threat Detection and Response, customers will benefit from one SOC
team providing continuous monitoring of separate threat detection
stacks for greater network visibility and faster endpoint threat
detection.
Why is this important?
Businesses face expanding network perimeters in need of protection.
Endpoint cyberattacks and the sophistication of adversaries are on
the rise. As such, SOC teams can be overwhelmed with alerts and
data providing limited context to identify issues. This can be
especially challenging when monitoring endpoints for protection and
detection in both on-premises and cloud environments.
The SOC teams' ability to view threats holistically through a
single agent is important for responding to threats quickly and
with confidence. To do this, threat detection and response on
endpoints needs to be orchestrated and automated through correlated
security alerts. AT&T Managed Endpoint Security scales and
augments understaffed and overwhelmed security teams.
What makes this new cybersecurity solution different?
In a few words: greater visibility. AT&T Managed Endpoint
Security with SentinelOne tracks every process that occurs on and
between each endpoint, applying Artificial Intelligence (AI) and
Machine Learning that reside on the agent to identify and
counteract threats at machine speed. The autonomous agent provides
protection even while an endpoint is offline, enabling today's
remote workforce.
As one of the world's top Managed Security Services
Providers (MSSPs), AT&T understands that the network edge
is constantly shifting and expanding, which can create security
gaps that need to be identified with greater visibility. AT&T
Managed Endpoint Security with Sentinel One creates that visibility
and works to protect you 24x7. AT&T SOC analysts are trusted
advisors, providing expert threat hunting, monitoring, and response
capabilities.
AT&T and SentinelOne have integrated their platforms and
enabled orchestrated and automated incident response to protect
your endpoints. Additional integrations between AT&T Alien
Labs, SentinelOne, and the AT&T SOC add layers of context for
the SOC management team to gain greater insights that lead to
better and faster threat detection and response.
When will this new cybersecurity solution be
available?
AT&T Managed Endpoint Security with
SentinelOne is available now to AT&T Managed Threat Detection
and Response customers.
Jay Scott, Director, Business
Intelligence, Birkey's Farm Store, Inc.
"The threat from the
bad actors has really taken off the last 10 or 15 years and we
needed to step up our game to make sure we keep Birkey's safe. We
used another product for 12 months and were not that thrilled with
it. SentinelOne has been a big step up for sure, and the support we
get from AT&T has been outstanding."
Dave Gruber, Senior Analyst,
ESG Research
"Accelerating the ability to detect and respond
to the increasing volume of endpoint threats is critical for
organizations. Bringing together AT&T Cybersecurity's managed
security offering and integrated threat intelligence with
SentinelOne's endpoint solution offers mid-market and enterprise
customers a strong solution to protect digital assets while
streamlining security operations."
Rupesh Chokshi, VP, AT&T
Cybersecurity
"More endpoints and data are crossing an
increasingly complex network environment, causing the cyber attack
surface to grow and new threats to emerge. With our expertise in
managed security, fiber and 5G connectivity solutions, we are
helping enterprises to reduce the risk of endpoint security attacks
using AI to accelerate the detection of threats, enabling them to
focus on their business innovation."
Tomer Weingarten, Co-founder
and CEO, SentinelOne
"Together, SentinelOne's leading
endpoint security solution and AT&T Cybersecurity's expertise
in managing SOC operations delivers next-generation endpoint
protection. Our comprehensive approach deploys cutting-edge AI to
secure endpoints, IoT devices, and cloud workloads – empowering
organizations to securely do more."
Karthik Swarnam, VP, Technology and
Orchestration, AT&T CSO
"Being a global leader in
telecommunications with 200,000+ employees and operating in 200+
countries, AT&T must continually evaluate new security
technologies and employ new tools to deliver highly effective
security safeguards. With these obligations and highest
standards of security, AT&T has turned to SentinelOne, a
company with a breakthrough platform dedicated to keeping ahead of
threats from every vector. Utilizing SentinelOne's AI and machine
learning, AT&T is able to help protect both employees and
