There are many endpoint approaches from different resources revolving in the world. Most of the people think that there is no exact and perfect definition of endpoint security. Endpoint security is a thought or concept which explains that all parts of a system (endpoints) are individually responsible for the security against any sort of virus. Endpoint security is a conclusion of how to manage and deal with the problem.

There are many kind of security software available in the market like different anti-virus and firewalls that helps all type of computer systems against all type of viruses. To get the better understanding about the endpoint security we should have a complete knowledge about the working process of security software. Endpoint security system is available in the market as a server/client package, server software becomes installed in the server computer, and then it provides all the updates to the client computers regarding their protection and safety against viruses. The client computers (also known as endpoints) could be laptops, PC’s, scanners and other devices.

The user of the computer, laptop or any other computer device now does not need any kind of software to be owned personally. The server on the other end provides complete security to your system without much looses of your time and money. The server automatically provides protection to your system if it is connected to an internet connection and enables you to protect all the devices of your computer.

Antivirus and firewalls are the very basic tools to secure your computer but apart from it you can install full protection system in your computer to make it more vulnerable against viruses either by purchasing it from the market or by simply downloading it from the internet.

In network environment the server computer gets the complete authority to protect the endpoints without personally going to each and every computer to remove its security weaknesses.

Our computer system can be affected by viruses through both internal and external devices (flash drive, data cables etc) that we use in excess with our computers as a routine thing. As the external devices are the surest way of entering virus in our computer so endpoint security allows us to secure our system from all kinds of viruses that might damage our computer system due to the usage of external devices. In the same way endpoint security system also make it possible for us to secure our systems from those viruses that might attack on our computer system due to the usage of internet. Apart from all these facilities endpoint security system allows the server to control and observe all the activities of its endpoints for security purposes so the server can lock the external devices as well as it can prohibit the installations of any kind of software from internet on its endpoints due to security reasons.

In the big companies where lots of people works on computers and the owner wants to make a full check and balance on the activities of his employees so that they can’t be able to misuse the computer system in anyways. Then the owner can easily control and maintain the working and security of all of its endpoint by using endpoint security system. Now you can easily give the complete access to your employees over their computers because you can maintain their security and can update them right from your own computer system. So you need not to worry about the security of your endpoints as endpoint security system is now in your hands.
