ESET

The addition of Vulnerability and Patch Management powered by OPSWAT, enables businesses to stay ahead of attackers.

ESET has announced the availability of a significant enhancement to its unified cybersecurity platform, ESET PROTECT. The enhancement is designed to address both current and future digital security challenges for businesses worldwide. It has partnered with OPSWAT to bring integrated vulnerability and patch management into the ESET PROTECT Platform. 

ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management has been added to existing ESET PROTECT Complete along with a brand-new tier – ESET PROTECT Elite – to better safeguard small and midsize businesses (SMBs) struggling to keep up with a constantly evolving threat landscape and ensure their systems are correctly patched. With centralized management from the ESET PROTECT Cloud console, organizations can easily assess security threats and manage patches across the entire network, ensuring timely detection and remediation of the latest zero-day vulnerabilities. 


“SMBs want an easy-to-use solution that will keep them safe. The customizable patching policies in ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management give businesses of all sizes flexibility and control so that their endpoints can be optimally patched promptly. This helps them minimize the risk of attack and ensures they can adhere to increasingly stringent cybersecurity insurance or regulatory requirements, plus meet the standard required for various ISO certifications,” comments Michal Jankech, Vice President of SMB and MSP Segment, ESET. 

ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management scans thousands of popular applications, such as Adobe Acrobat, Mozilla Firefox, and Zoom Client, for over 35,000 common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs). 


“We’re excited about this new step in our longstanding partnership with ESET. They’ve demonstrated consistent leadership in delivering best-of-breed security to the SMB market. Our endpoint technology helps protect over 150 million endpoints worldwide through our enterprise partners. ESET is a perfect partner to leverage our technology in the SMB market” commented Chad Loeven, OPSWAT’s Vice President of Business Development.


With the launch of ESET PROTECT Elite, there are now five subscription tiers to the ESET PROTECT Platform for businesses of all sizes:
ESET PROTECT Entry – an entry-level solution with competitive pricing that includes endpoint protection, server security, and the ESET PROTECT Cloud console.


ESET PROTECT Advanced – providing first-class endpoint protection with advanced threat defense technology and full disk encryption.

ESET PROTECT Complete – includes the new ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management capability, cloud application protection, and mail security to minimize cyber risks.

New ESET PROTECT Elite – provides increased visibility and decreased cyber risks, ESET Vulnerability and Patch Management, ESET’s native extended detection and response (XDR) capability, plus robust multifactor authentication.  ESET PROTECT MDR – an enterprise-grade solution that provides complete cyber risk management, robust threat hunting, and world-class ESET expertise on call. ESET PROTECT MDR combines the capabilities of the ESET PROTECT Elite tier with ESET managed security and professional services.
