Is your computer putting your organization's security at risk?
The Endpoint Assessment Test is a free tool that scans a computer and assesses whether it is a security risk to your organization. A single scan checks that:
- your Microsoft service pack is the current one for your operating system
- your Microsoft patches are all up to date
- anti-virus protection is installed, running and current
- a personal firewall is installed and running
The Endpoint Assessment Test checks for over 600 patches, 28 anti-virus applications, and 22 firewall applications. It uses the Sophos ActiveX dissolvable agent to scan in passive "report-only" mode. Once the scan is done, the agent presents the results.
Real-world results from the Endpoint Assessment Test
Results reveal that many computers do pose a security risk to their organization. Of all the computers tested:
- 60% were not protected and were vulnerable
- 50% were missing critical or high priority Microsoft patches
- 20% with anti-virus installed either did not have it running or had old signature files
- 30% did not even have basic firewall protection enabled
Endpoint assessment and control
If the test finds security risks on just one computer, imagine how many more in your organization could be equally vulnerable.
