Antivirus looks for known-bad and suspicious behavior on a device. Modern endpoint tools add detection, response, and often isolation. Neither replaces MFA, backups, or email filtering. AV is one layer.
If your “security stack” is a free consumer AV on some laptops, you do not have a stack.
What to expect from business endpoint protection
Central console showing who is protected and who is missing an agent.
Alerts that someone acknowledges.
Ability to isolate a host during ransomware.
Updates that do not depend on each user clicking “remind me tomorrow.”
Limits
Will not stop a user who typed a password into a fake login page.
Will not restore files—backups do that.
Misconfigured exclusions for line-of-business apps can create holes.
