EPP

An EPP is the integrated security agent installed on laptops, desktops, and servers to prevent malware and other attacks. It combines antivirus, exploit prevention, firewall, and device control in one managed product. EPP focuses on blocking threats up front, while its companion category EDR focuses on detecting and investigating what gets through.
