Introduction
Blue Ridge Networks’ AppGuard is a unique Anti-
Malware solution that stops malware breaches at the
earliest stages of attack without requiring detection,
scanning, or updates. Recognized by leading industry
analysts as effective, next generation endpoint protection,
AppGuard delivers a multi-layered defense that
prevents breaches from emerging undetectable threats
and generates earlier Indicators of Attack (IOA) without
a compromise occurring. AppGuard is compatible with
all current Windows versions, is easy to deploy with
scale, is non-disruptive to users and productivity, and
works “on” and “off ” enterprise without on-going management
dependencies.
Technological Innovation
Other endpoint protection products allow malware to
“detonate”, relying on detecting and responding to a
compromise in time to limit breach effects. Without
a known signature or IOC (Indicator of Compromise),
breaches can go undetected by breach
detection, whitelisting, blacklisting (antivirus),
sandboxing or other conventional
techniques for weeks or months,
placing an enterprise at risk.
AppGuard offers an effective
defense against these emerging
undetectable threats that cannot
be addressed by conventional
