Endpoint Security vs Endpoint Protection

[jdemoccc]

can someone explain the difference between MalwareBytes Endpoint Security vs MalwareBytes Endpoint Protection? Is the Endpoint Protection just cloud managed based?

[djacobson]

The most notable difference is that yes, Endpoint Security is an on-prem solution while Endpoint Protection is cloud based. Those are only the surface differences. Endpoint Protection has the new protection agent, based on Malwarebytes 3 technology, now on the business side. Additionally, it has all those technologies; Anti-Malware, Anti-Exploit and Anti-Ransomware all rolled into one instead of being separate like the older on-prem.

So the Endpoint security option does not include Malwarebytes 3 features like Anti-Ransomware?

[djacobson]

Endpoint Security does include Anti-Ransomware, however it is a standalone tool that does not integrate with the console.

With Endpoint Security you cannot central manage, deploy and report everything regarding to the Anti-Ransomware module. So basically not an option for large organizations.

In addition, the anti-ransomware module within Endpoint Security is still the 0.9 version.

Also, Endpoint Security does not have an Anomaly Detection Engine, (if I have to believe the information and communication on the website).

Can we expect an on-premises solution in the future that contains the features of the cloud managed product?
