Rightworks Endpoint Security
Your devices are a door. We keep them locked.
Modern attacks target devices first. Rightworks protects every device your firm uses with layered endpoint security—continuously monitored, fully managed, and built for accounting firms.
Why traditional antivirus isn’t
enough protection for your firm
enough protection for your firm
Even one unprotected device is a security risk. That’s why we build
comprehensive coverage that keeps up with today’s threats.
Antivirus has blind spots
Traditional antivirus blocks known threats—but modern attacks regularly sidestep it. Our Endpoint Detection & Response (EDR) closes that gap by watching for unusual activity, not just known malware.
Inconsistent monitoring
Most firms can’t monitor device activity around the clock. Managed EDR provides 24/7 visibility across every device—detecting suspicious behavior, triggering automated responses, and escalating when needed.
It doesn’t cover remote staff
Accounting firms operate with remote, offshore, and seasonal staff accessing sensitive data from different locations. Rightworks applies consistent endpoint protection to every approved device, wherever it’s used.
Layered protection, managed end to end
Rightworks Endpoint Security combines six defensive layers into a single managed service—so threats that evade one control are caught by the next.
Antivirus & EDR
Layered detection that blocks known threats and hunts down advanced ones using behavioral analysis—before they spread.
Intrusion Detection & Firewall
Monitors and controls traffic at the network and device level, whether your team is onsite or working remotely.
Automated Patch Management
Closes vulnerabilities in your operating system and key applications automatically, plus password hygiene tooling to eliminate common gaps.
Encryption & Backups
Keeps client data protected at rest and ensures fast recovery if a device is ever lost, stolen, or compromised.
Security Training & 24/7 Support
Aligns your human and technical defenses, backed by round-the-clock support from teams who know accounting workflows.
Always-on protection, peace of mind every day
Rightworks Endpoint Security is designed to reduce the burden on your firm—not add to it. Here’s what you’ll notice:
- Fewer security incidents and a safer working environment for remote and offshore staff
- Faster detection, containment, and recovery when a device-based threat does occur
- Consistent, firm-wide device security posture—without expanding internal IT resources
- Documented evidence of proactive device protection for audits, regulatory reviews, and cyber insurance requirements

FAQs
FAQs
In cybersecurity, an “endpoint” is any device that connects to your firm’s network or data—most commonly desktops and laptops, but also includes things like servers and mobile devices. Each endpoint is a potential entry point for attackers, because they connect directly to sensitive client data, cloud applications, and internal systems. Protecting your endpoints means protecting the devices your team works on every day.
Endpoint security is the practice of protecting those devices from cyber threats. A strong endpoint security solution combines multiple layers—antivirus, behavioral detection, firewall control, patching, and encryption—and monitors devices continuously to detect and stop threats before they spread. The most effective solutions are fully managed, meaning a team of experts handles monitoring and response on your behalf.
No—and this is one of the most common gaps we see at accounting firms. Traditional antivirus tools block known threats by matching patterns, but modern attacks are specifically engineered to avoid those patterns. Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) with continuous behavioral monitoring is now considered the baseline standard—it detects unusual activity regardless of whether the threat has been seen before.
Endpoint security is the broader category: it includes antivirus, firewalls, patching, encryption, and more. EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) is a key component within that category—it continuously monitors device behavior to detect and respond to advanced threats in real time. The most effective approach combines EDR with the other protective layers into one managed solution, which is how Rightworks delivers it.
Yes—and this is especially important for accounting firms that rely on seasonal hires or international staff during busy season. Remote and offshore employees access firm systems from different locations and networks, which increases exposure. Rightworks ensures that every approved device meets the same security standard and is monitored continuously, regardless of where it’s used.
Yes. Cyber insurance carriers increasingly require documented evidence of endpoint controls as a condition of coverage—including patch management, encryption, and active monitoring. Rightworks Endpoint Security is designed to support those requirements, generating the documentation your firm needs for insurance applications, renewals, and regulatory reviews.
