“Many of today’s external threats are designed to evade detection by traditional reactive security solutions. Using a clientless service can help address some of these challenges. For the most part, a clientless service eliminates the administrative burden of installing multiple software clients on customer desktops and shortens the implementation time at customer sites. In addition, using a clientless service can ease the burden that is often imposed on customer desktops due to the need to continually configure and update the software.”
