🇵🇰 The local threat landscape

Pakistan's endpoints are under attack — at scale.

Kaspersky logged 5.3 million on-device attacks against Pakistani devices in the first nine months of 2025. APT groups are actively targeting telcos, banks, and government. Ransomware crews have already breached critical national infrastructure. The endpoint is the new perimeter — and most enterprises haven't caught up.

What it is

One lightweight agent. Three layers of defense. Zero gaps.

QCloud Endpoint Protection is a single, kernel-level agent deployed on every laptop, server, and VM in your fleet. It combines next-gen antivirus (signature + ML), Endpoint Detection & Response (behavioral analysis, threat hunting), and XDR correlation (network + identity + cloud telemetry) — into one console, one policy plane, one bill.

  • Real-time behavioral analysis with kernel-level visibility
  • Automated containment in under 1 second
  • Cross-domain XDR correlation across endpoints, network, and cloud
  • Threat intelligence updated daily by QCloud's in-country SOC

Four core promises

Built on what actually stops modern attacks.

All-Round Protection

Multilayered signatureless detection — ML, behavioral analysis, exploit prevention — fused with proven IPS, reputation, and signature engines.

99.7% MITRE ATT&CK coverage

Adjustable Policies

Tune protection levels per device-group, per user, per workload. Tighter on production servers; lighter on dev laptops. All from one console.

per-group policy in 3 clicks

Deception Technology

Plant high-fidelity decoy files, credentials, and shares to expose lateral movement and unmask attackers' intent before they reach real assets.

Isolation of Malicious Activity

Quarantine compromised processes, network connections, and devices in milliseconds — protecting the rest of your fleet from blast radius.

412ms median containment
Attack kill-chain

Ransomware unfolds in 25 minutes. We stop it in 412 milliseconds.

Industry data shows the average ransomware attack progresses from initial access to encryption in under 25 minutes. Here's where QCloud Endpoint Protection intervenes — at every stage.

Evolution of endpoint defense

Beyond antivirus. Beyond EPP. Beyond EDR.

Pakistan's threat landscape demands more than signature-based antivirus. QCloud Endpoint Protection delivers full EPP + EDR + XDR coverage — out of the box.

AV
~1990s

Yesterday's defense — signature-only. Reactive. Blind to fileless attacks.

EPP
~2010s

Adds heuristics + firewall + device control. Better, but still prevention-only.

EDR
~2020s

Continuous monitoring + behavioral analysis + response automation. Endpoint-only scope.

XDR
2026 · QCloud is here

Cross-domain correlation: endpoints + network + identity + cloud. AI-driven automated response.

← You are here with QCloud
Legacy AV catches what it's seen before. QCloud catches what no one has seen yet.
EDR sees the endpoint. XDR sees the whole attack.
QCloud delivers both — under one agent, one console, one bill.

The legacy trap

Antivirus alone hasn't worked since 2015. Most Pakistani enterprises are still running it.

Here's what changes the day you move from legacy AV (or DIY OSSEC/ClamAV) to QCloud Endpoint Protection.

Legacy AV / Self-managed
  • Signature-only — blind to fileless, zero-day, and LotL attacks
  • Heavy agent — 200+ MB RAM, 20%+ CPU spikes during scans
  • Reactive alerts pile up — no automated containment
  • DIY threat intel — your IT team chases CVEs at 2 AM
  • No central console — every workstation is its own island
  • Compliance evidence: spreadsheets and screenshots
  • Ransomware? Restore from backups (if you have them)
QCloud Endpoint Protection
  • AI + behavioral + signature — catches everything, including zero-days
  • Sub-50 MB agent, sub-8% peak CPU — invisible to users
  • Automated containment in milliseconds — analyst-free response
  • QCloud SOC pushes daily threat intel — your team focuses on outcomes
  • One console, every device, every region, every policy
  • Immutable audit logs, 7-year retention, SBP/PECA-ready
  • Ransomware rollback before encryption completes

Most teams cut endpoint security spend 30–45% and reduce P1 incident response time by 80% in their first quarter on QCloud Endpoint Protection.

FAQ

Everything you wanted to ask before you protect your first endpoint.

Median deployment time across QCloud customers is under 4 hours for fleets up to 500 devices. The agent installs silently via your existing MDM, AD GPO, Intune, or our deployment script. No reboots required. Pilot on 10 devices first; expand from there.
Under 50 MB resident RAM, under 8% peak CPU during full scan, under 1% disk I/O. The agent is kernel-aware and battery-aware. Users do not notice it's running.
Yes. Behavioral detection identifies ransomware patterns (mass-file-write, shadow-copy deletion, entropy spikes) within the first ~100 affected files and triggers automatic rollback. Detection-to-containment median: 412ms.
Defender provides signature-based AV — good baseline, but it does not include behavioral EDR, threat hunting, deception, XDR correlation, in-country SOC oversight, or compliance-grade audit logging. QCloud Endpoint Protection delivers all of these in one agent.
Respond. Pro and Enterprise tiers include 24/7 in-country SOC engineers who triage, contain, and remediate confirmed threats on your behalf. P1 incidents are containment-acknowledged in under 15 minutes.
QCloud Endpoint Protection uses a Pay As You Go model — pay only for the devices you protect, billed monthly with no minimum commitment. For longer-term value, Saving Plans (1-year or 3-year) offer better rates with No, Partial, or Full upfront payment options. Use the QCloud Pricing Calculator at calculator.qcloud.pk for a tailored estimate, or contact sales for a custom quote. No incident-response fees, no per-restore fees, no hidden charges.
Yes. Every new QCloud account receives $100 in credit and a 1-month free trial of Endpoint Protection Pro, including SOC oversight. Onboarding includes a free baseline endpoint security assessment.
100%. Every byte of agent telemetry, every detection event, every audit log, every threat-intel update resides in PTCL's Tier-3 / Rated-3 certified data centers in Karachi (KHI-1) and Islamabad (ISB-1). Nothing ever leaves the country.
Yes. The platform's audit-log retention, encryption, access control, and reporting are designed against SBP Cyber-Hygiene, PECA 2016, PTA frameworks, ISO/IEC 27001, and HIPAA-style controls. SBP-ready quarterly compliance reports are included with Pro and Enterprise tiers.
Yes — available on the Enterprise tier. Air-gapped agents receive signed update bundles via your sovereign update channel; telemetry is retained on-premise with optional batch upload.
Yes. Standard syslog, CEF, LEEF formats are supported out of the box. We also provide native connectors for Splunk and ServiceNow, plus a full REST API and webhook events on every detection. Terraform provider available.
Yes. Both on-prem AD and Microsoft Entra ID (Azure AD) are supported for user-aware policies and federated SSO into the QCloud Endpoint console. LDAP and SAML 2.0 also supported.
