Wave Endpoint Monitor

Used with ERAS for Device Identification

Detect attacks before it’s too late

Malware can do its work for weeks or months before you ever know it’s there. But with Wave Endpoint Monitor, you will know it’s there.

Antivirus software can’t detect rootkits and other malware; it works at the level of the OS and isn’t very good at seeing deeper into the system. For example, it can’t tell whether the boot record is lying. The Wave alternative is to work with the Trusted Platform Modules (TPMs), or security chips, embedded in your devices. It doesn’t get deeper than that. Every time a device boots up, Wave Endpoint Monitor makes a comparison against known, trusted values and if anything deviates from the norm, it alerts you immediately.

An open standard means Wave works with everything

Wave Endpoint Monitor works on your existing hardware, across platforms. That’s because our solutions are based on an open standard that’s already been implemented on many laptops and is now working its way onto mobile devices. We’re talking about those TPMs. We just don’t think that expensive new equipment and vendor lock-in are great selling points.

Be proactive on compliance

No new regulations here—yet. But government agencies recognize malware as a growing threat. In 2011, NIST published guidelines for basic input/output system (BIOS) integrity measurement, the BIOS being what initializes a computer when it boots up. When this critical system is malware’s target, the consequences are big. The guidelines describe what’s needed to establish a chain of trust for the BIOS: Has it been tampered with? NIST actually looked to Wave for feedback on this document (see the acknowledgments). We know what’s needed, because Wave Endpoint Monitor is already doing it.
