The goal of endpoint malware protection is a solution that offers low administrative overhead, low end-user impact and the best available protection. Security and risk management leaders can make educated trade-offs within endpoint protection to achieve two of these three aims.

We understand that it's difficult to address all security needs. Download this Gartner analyst report; we believe you'll learn more about how to overcome these key security challenges:

• Unclear perceptions turn up constantly, as many techniques have similar names or umbrella terms like "application control," which can vary wildly in terms of actual capabilities.
• Blending technologies from multiple vendors risks agent bloat and software conflicts, resulting in disabled protection features and less-than-optimal configurations.
• Not all malware requires an exploit. Users can simply be tricked into downloading and running malware that does not require an exploit.

Read this report to learn what Gartner recommends for mobile security and risk management.
