What is next-generation antivirus (NGAV)?

Next-generation antivirus goes beyond signature matching to use behavioral analysis, machine learning, and cloud intelligence to detect both known and unknown threats at the endpoint. It is better than traditional AV at catching novel malware and fileless attacks.

NGAV still operates at the endpoint and on the process, however, not inside your stored data. Elastio works at the data layer, inspecting files in live, replicated, and backup storage, so threats that evade endpoint detection are still found before they undermine recovery.
