In tests conducted on Windows 10 by AV-Test in November and December 2016, SCEP scored 15 out of 18 when evaluated for protection, performance and usability, which was one of the lowest scores of 12 tested systems. Separate security applications are required for Mac and Linux platforms. SCEP is part of Windows System Center and natively supports Windows client workstations and servers. Dashboard indicators and preconfigured reports are limited, as well. However, System Center Configuration Manager vNext manages some of these features (because they're built into Windows 10 clients), such as the antimalware scan interface, AppLocker, Device Guard and Enterprise Data Protection. For example, SCEP does not include data loss prevention, application or device control, full-disk encryption, or native support for mobile devices. The application also provides file cleaning, during which infected files are replaced with clean versions that are downloaded from a Microsoft cloud location.īeyond that, SCEP diverges from leading endpoint protection products, such as those by Symantec, McAfee, Kaspersky and so on. SCEP provides real-time, policy-based protection from malware, spyware and other threats administrator alerts in potentially dangerous situations the ability to schedule scans automatic detection actions and the ability to configure Windows Firewall settings. The information in this article is based on SCEP 2016.
Designed for midsize to enterprise environments, SCEP is not a practical endpoint protection option for small organizations. SCEP is dependent on Microsoft System Center Configuration Manager to deploy the SCEP agent to clients and distribute updates.
