I would recommend taking a look at Blackberry Protect (formerly Cylance Protect).  I have worked with many AV products 
in the past and I have been thoroughly pleased with this product for the 3 ½ years we have been using it.  We used to 
be a Sophos shop. Their add-on product Optics is a great tool for keeping track of questionable traffic and helping to 
mitigate risks to the endpoints.

Subject: [SECURITY] Endpoint protection vendors

Hello,

We are looking into replacing our traditional anti-virus (Avast) with “next-gen” EDR/EPP products. We are doing POC’s 
with Crowdstrike and SentinelOne (their enterprise-type package) but also looking at Cyberreason and possibly Sophos. 
Does anyone have experience with any of these and recommend one over the other? Is there another product we should 
consider?

Thanks in advance!
