Endpoint Protection for XP Windows Embedded provides multi-layered security including application-centric firewall, application-control, intrusion prevention and detection, antivirus, and centralised management for comprehensive Windows XP Embedded and WEPOS device protection.
Antivirus
Endpoint Protection for Windows XP Embedded antivirus engine applies patterns of known malware to all files and acts as an additional layer of defense. All files accessed, downloaded or uploaded are analysed against signatures of known attacks, effectively protecting the embedded device.
Firewall
Endpoint Protection for Windows XP Embedded incorporates an application-centric firewall that protects embedded devices, provides stateful firewall, applies rule-based security policy, and controls application usage. It locks down the network communication of the embedded device to only the required applications and network traffic, ensuring that no malicious application can send data to or from the embedded device.
Intrusion Prevention and Intrusion Detection
Endpoint Protection for Windows XP Embedded intrusion prevention engine applies patterns of known attacks to all incoming and outgoing traffic as a second layer of defense. Its unique application-based approach to intrusion prevention uses application layer information and deep-packet inspection to more effectively identify and block known and unknown attacks. All data entering or exiting the embedded device is analysed against signatures of known attacks and behavioral patterns of unknown attacks, effectively protecting the embedded device.
