ESET PROTECT is an endpoint detection and response platform from ESET, a cybersecurity company founded in 1992 and headquartered in Bratislava, Slovak Republic. The platform emphasizes prevention-focused security through multilayered detection combining signature-based analysis, machine learning, and behavioral analysis to identify malware pre-execution, during execution, and post-execution stages.
ESET PROTECT includes ransomware detection and automated remediation with rollback capabilities to restore systems to a pre-attack state, fileless attack prevention, browser protection, and brute force detection across Windows, macOS, Linux, Android and iOS devices. The platform includes advanced threat hunting capabilities and optional managed detection and response services staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
ESET PROTECT is available in five tiered editions: Entry, Advanced, Complete, Elite, and MDR, each offering different levels of functionality. Cloud-based management through ESET PROTECT Hub is included in all tiers, though organisations can also deploy on-premises for greater control. The platform integrates with SIEM solutions, SOAR platforms, threat intelligence systems, and remote monitoring and management tools, enabling automated workflows and centralised visibility across diverse security environments.
Pricing is not published and requires direct contact with ESET or an authorised partner to obtain a quote. The company supports over 10,000 managed service providers worldwide. ESET offers a free 30-day trial of ESET PROTECT Advanced with capacity for up to 25 endpoints. MSPs should confirm specific feature availability in their required tier and integration support before purchase, as pricing models and feature allocation can vary significantly by region and partner.
ESET PROTECT stands out for its focus on prevention and behavioral detection rather than post-breach response, which suits MSPs managing diverse endpoint fleets who want early threat interception. The platform's rollback capability for ransomware recovery is valuable for clients who need rapid restoration after attacks. Because ESET uses a quote-only pricing model without published per-endpoint rates, you need to contact ESET or an authorised partner to compare total cost of ownership against published-price competitors like CrowdStrike Falcon or SentinelOne. Test the threat hunting console and MDR response times in a trial before committing, especially if your clients require rapid incident response.
