Symantec Endpoint Protection is powered by Symantec Insight - security technology that puts files in context, using their age, frequency, location and more to expose threats otherwise missed. Built on contributions from over 100 million systems in over 200 countries, Symantec Insight has the power to examine and track the context of files. Insight detects new and unknown threats that are missed by other approaches. * Black-listing and white-listing only work when there are thousands of copies of a known file. But majority of malware today mutate to hide from black lists and white lists * Insight correlates tens of billions of linkages between users, files, and websites to identify rapidly mutating threats that may only exist on a few systems * Reduces scan overhead by as much as 70% by scanning only files at risk * Can’t be evaded or coded around by self-mutating and encrypting malware * With Insight malware creators are caught in a Catch-22 – mutate too little and get caught by signature based AV, mutate too much and get caught by Insight
