Frequently Asked Questions About SentinelOne

Is SentinelOne Anti-Virus?

Yes, but looks at more than just signatures.

SentinelOne is an EDR, which stands for Endpoint Detection and Response.

Endpoint Detections and Response (EDR) offers the same level of protection as a traditional Anti-Virus, plus the added benefits of behavioral analysis; which watches what programs do.
