Cb Protection 8.1 includes a new “File Delete” feature, allowing customers to meet PCI DSS standards to replace legacy antivirus (AV). Customers who want to remove legacy AV and run Cb Protection on their compliant devices can now do so without going through the compensating control process.
“The deterministic security model employed by Cb Protection has helped many organizations lock down critical systems and servers,” said Doug Cahill, Group Director and Senior Analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group. “With ‘File Delete’ in Cb Protection 8.1, Carbon Black continues to innovate and make customers’ lives easier by automating response measures protecting server workloads from compromise while also assuring compliance.”
