TheApplication and Device Controltechnology within Symantec Endpoint Protection (SEP) is responsible for blocking unauthorized software behaviors, such as preventing a downloaded program from installing browser plugins. This feature is designed to enforce policies that restrict specific actions by applications, which includes controlling program installation behaviors, access to certain system components, and interactions with browser settings. Application and Device Control effectively safeguards endpoints by stopping potentially unwanted or malicious modifications to the browser, thus protecting users from threats that may arise from unverified or harmful plugins.

When migrating an SES Complete hybrid environment to a fully cloud-managed setup, the next recommended step after cleaning up the on-premises group structure and policies is toexport unique policies from SEPM. This ensures:

Policy Continuity:Exporting policies from SEPM preserves any unique configurations that need to be replicated or adapted in the cloud environment.

Preparation for Import to ICDm:These exported policies can then be imported into ICDm, facilitating a smoother transition without losing specific policy customizations.

This step is crucial for maintaining consistent security policy enforcement as the environment transitions to cloud management.

TheEndpoint Communication Channel (ECC) 2.0enables Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) to establish a direct connection with theSymantec Endpoint Protection Manager (SEPM). This connection allows for:

Efficient Data Exchange:ECC 2.0 facilitates real-time communication and data exchange between SEPM and Symantec EDR.

Enhanced Endpoint Visibility:By directly connecting with SEPM, Symantec EDR can monitor endpoint activity more closely, improving threat detection and response.

Integrated Threat Management:ECC 2.0 supports coordinated efforts between SEPM and EDR, allowing for more effective containment and mitigation of threats.

This direct communication with SEPM enhances EDR’s capability to manage and protect endpoints effectively.
