This report explains why traditional signature-based antivirus is insufficient against modern, polymorphic threats and promotes a layered approach that pairs AV with behavior-based EDR and continuous SOC monitoring. It highlights Huntress Managed AV/EDR with Microsoft Defender integration, emphasizing real-time behavioral detection, rich endpoint telemetry, expert-led investigation and response, and proactive threat hunting to rapidly identify, contain, and remediate attacks that evade signatures.
