In a bid to address the burgeoning challenges of endpoint security, NinjaOne®, a prominent IT platform specializing in endpoint management, security, and visibility, has unveiled its expanded platform offerings. The new features include enhanced endpoint management, patch management, and backup capabilities, empowering organizations to fortify their defenses against mounting security threats.
The significance of safeguarding endpoints cannot be overstated in today's digital landscape, where they represent one of the primary targets for cyber threats. According to industry estimates, approximately 70 percent of breaches originate from endpoints, with over half attributed to unpatched software vulnerabilities. Yet, a staggering 76 percent of organizations lack adequate patch and vulnerability management, leaving them susceptible to attacks.
Moreover, the prevalence of unmanaged or legacy systems accessing networks, as reported by 50 percent of organizations, coupled with the absence of usable backups in 44 percent of cases, underscores the critical need for comprehensive endpoint security solutions. These vulnerabilities present lucrative opportunities for threat actors to exploit, potentially leading to severe consequences such as data breaches, operational disruptions, and reputational damage.
NinjaOne's latest enhancements aim to equip IT and security teams with the requisite visibility and control to mitigate these risks effectively. Rahul Hirani, the Senior Vice President of Product Management at NinjaOne, emphasized the platform's commitment to addressing customer needs and enhancing security measures. "Endpoints are the IT foundation of any modern organization, but they also pose a serious risk," said Hirani. "We're obsessed with customer success at NinjaOne, so it was important to us to evolve our platform to deliver endpoint visibility, security, and backups to meet our customers' needs and safeguard their organizations from today's most sophisticated attacks."
Key features of NinjaOne's upgraded platform include:
Risk Reduction: Through comprehensive device visibility and real-time patch management, organizations can identify and address potential vulnerabilities promptly, minimizing attack vectors and ensuring compliance.
Ransomware Mitigation: Leveraging cloud-first device backups, NinjaOne enables organizations to protect critical data and expedite recovery in the event of a ransomware attack, thereby mitigating potential damages.
Unified IT and Security: By bridging the gap between IT and security functions, NinjaOne streamlines security operations, simplifies deployment of security solutions, and accelerates threat resolution, enhancing overall organizational resilience.
Customer testimonials underscore the efficacy of NinjaOne's solutions in real-world scenarios. Raffi Kajverouni, President and General Manager at H.E.R.O.S. Inc., praised NinjaOne's role in swiftly restoring their network following a ransomware attack. "NinjaOne saved our business," said Kajverouni. "The backup process was simple and painless, and I can't speak highly enough of NinjaOne's support team."
Similarly, Zachary Neu, Senior Technical Support Specialist at Park University, highlighted the platform's ability to streamline cyber hygiene practices across a distributed network of devices. "NinjaOne gives us comprehensive visibility of all the devices on our network," noted Neu. "They've made it simple to patch and update software on our endpoints, freeing up our time to focus on more strategic projects."
As the threat landscape continues to evolve, NinjaOne's expanded platform signals a proactive approach to enhancing endpoint security and empowering organizations to stay ahead of emerging threats.
