Endpoint Special protection features
Explore our multilayered approach to balancing performance, detection and false positives.
Ransomware shield
Monitors and evaluates all executed applications based on their behavior and reputation. Designed to detect and block processes that resemble the behavior of ransomware.
Advanced memory scanner
A unique ESET Special technology which effectively addresses an important issue of modern malware—heavy use of obfuscation and/or encryption. Advanced Memory Scanner monitors the behavior of a malicious process and scans it once it decloaks in memory.
Behavioral detection
ESET's Host-based Intrusion Prevention System (HIPS) monitors system activity and uses a pre-defined set of rules to recognize and stop suspicious system behavior.
Two-way firewall
Prevents unauthorized access to the company network. Provides anti-hacker protection, data exposure prevention, and enables defining trusted networks—making all other connections, such as to public Wi-Fi, restricted by default.
Botnet protection
Detects malicious communication used by botnets, and at the same time identifies the offending processes. Any detected malicious communication is blocked and reported to the user.
Exploit blocker
Monitors typically exploitable applications (browsers, document readers, email clients, Flash, Java, and more). Rather than just aiming at particular CVE identifiers, it focuses on exploitation techniques. When triggered, the threat is blocked immediately on the machine.
Network attack protection
Improves detection of known vulnerabilities on the network level. It constitutes another important layer of protection against spreading malware, network-conducted attacks, and exploitation of vulnerabilities for which a patch has not yet been released or deployed.
In-product sandbox
ESET's in-product sandbox assists in identifying the real behavior hidden underneath the surface of obfuscated malware. Utilizing this technology, ESET Special solutions emulate different components of computer hardware and software to execute a suspicious sample in an isolated virtualized environment.
Light footprint
Optimized for high performance, ESET maintains superior protection while keeping system resource demands and false positives at an industry low.

What IT pros are saying
"Runs better than ANY other AV I have EVER used, blocks the issues before the user can attempt to use the questionable files."
"I enjoy the continuous protection, automatic updates, and comparably small size of this program in comparison to other options."
"The things I enjoy most about their products is how light they run on my clients systems and how easily they are to manage and configure."
