It's a stripped-down version that removes some of the components and add-ons that are not part of the endpoint protection engines, so the agent is lighter and can be deployed faster. The agents for the ATMs and servers aren't as heavy as the ones for workstations. I have three different kinds of agents on the endpoint that I can use to control access. The management server will give me the current status. If I want to check the status of any asset, I need to get the details like the IP address and the hostname of the system. There's a central management server we use to manage all the endpoints, regardless of the categories, and we install an agent on all the endpoints that reports to the management server. Symantec Endpoint Protection is an antivirus with anti-malware and application control capabilities that we use to protect assets like servers, workstations, and ATMs.
