Real-time endpoint antivirus that detects, blocks and removes malware.
Heimdal Next-Gen Antivirus — real-time endpoint malware detection, blocking and removal
Malware on endpoints remains a frequent operational problem. Infections and unwanted processes disrupt user productivity and increase workload for small IT teams. Teams need clearer prevention and faster triage to stop issues spreading.
Heimdal Next-Gen Antivirus detects, blocks and removes malware in real time. It lets administrators quarantine files, stop malicious processes and remove artefacts. The product provides telemetry and alerts that help teams decide what actions to take next.
It is relevant where organisations run mostly Windows endpoints, have remote users or limited in-house security expertise. Used alongside other controls, it lowers infection rates and reduces follow-up work for defenders.
Where Heimdal Next-Gen Antivirus is used
Small businesses use it to protect desktops and file servers with straightforward policies and scheduled scans, keeping routine infections off user devices.
MSPs and resellers deploy it across client estates to provide a baseline layer of malware protection for remote offices and distributed users, forwarding relevant alerts into existing ticketing workflows.
In teams with limited security staff, it reduces noisy alerts and gives clear containment actions to support manual triage.
Suitable environments
Best fit is small and medium estates, MSP-managed client lists and organisations with predominantly Windows devices. It works where central IT configures protection but does not outsource monitoring.
Suitable for mixed cloud and on-prem environments that need endpoint prevention as part of layered defences. It is not a substitute for 24x7 monitoring or a SOC; it focuses on local prevention, detection and removal.
How we help
Armstrong may support implementation, configuration and ongoing support of Heimdal Next-Gen Antivirus. Armstrong often helps SMBs, MSPs and distributed organisations with limited in-house security expertise to select and integrate the product. Work typically focuses on product selection, integration, configuration and improving control processes; Armstrong can assist with operational handover and tuning but does not operate customer environments.
Features
Multi-Stage Scanning with 100% Detection Rate
The Heimdal endpoint antivirus compares the suspicious file against a database stored locally.
NGAV moves to threat cloud scanning, a high-speed process supported by machine learning.
The module performs hidden backdoor scanning, listens for malicious command and control connections, and executes suspicious files in a bulletproof sandbox.
Advanced Malware Detection
You can move from traditional antivirus threat detection to a prevent & hunt posture by taking full control of DNS, HTTP, and HTTPS communications.
Get unprecedented control over what happens inside and outside your corporate network, eliminating the need to hire additional security analysts or rely on unreliable threat analysis software.
