The Solution Overview

The integration between BitDefender and Discern Security empowers customers to maximize their endpoint protection and asset management capabilities.

1. BitDefender Endpoint + Discern Darcy AI

Discern Darcy AI seamlessly integrates with BitDefender’s EPP/EDR platform to evaluate whether customers are fully utilizing the platform’s robust security features and configurations. After assessing the deployment, Darcy AI provides clear, prioritized recommendations on which controls to enable for optimal protection. Customers receive step-by-step guidance on activating these features within BitDefender, ensuring they extract the full value from their security investment.

2. BitDefender Endpoint + Discern Asset Management: Comprehensive Asset Visibility

Discern’s asset management solution integrates with BitDefender to provide a holistic view of all discovered assets.
