"Our approach of placing predictive execution inspection and modeling directly on the endpoint allows us to detect and block threats that are otherwise impossible to detect using traditional security technologies." Unlike signature-based security techniques and sandbox technologies that emulate endpoint devices, SentinelOne dynamically tracks each newly-created process on a machine through its lifecycle using execution inspection technology to prevent malware from evading detection. By profiling activity patterns in real-time, SentinelOne can detect the most stealth threats, anticipate their next move, then stop and remove the malware.
