Enterprise adoption of public cloud services—including environments such as AWS, Azure, and GCP—has grown significantly, increasing the need to strengthen enterprise security with specialized protection mechanisms that cover virtual machines and other resources in these environments.
To respond to this demand, ESET has announced two important advancements aimed at strengthening enterprise security against advanced threats: ESET Cloud Workload Protection, integrated directly into the ESET Protect platform, and eCrime Reports, a strategic offering within the ESET Threat Intelligence portfolio designed to provide high-quality threat intelligence and proactive guidance.
Cloud workload protection integrated into ESET Protect
ESET Cloud Workload Protection is a module that extends the capabilities of the ESET Protect platform, incorporating visibility and defense of virtual machines in the cloud from a single pane of glass. This integration strengthens enterprise security by offering more unified, complete and efficient protection for the teams responsible for corporate defense.
Unlike other solutions on the market that present cloud protection as a standalone product, ESET includes this functionality at no additional cost to ESET PROTECT customers (except Entry). This allows you to improve enterprise security without increasing subscription costs, while simplifying operations and facilitating centralized threat management in hybrid and multicloud environments.
From ESET they highlight that “companies are moving more and more critical assets and processes to the public cloud, expanding the attack surface. With ESET Cloud Workload Protection, we reinforce business security through an integrated defense that offers unified protection against advanced threats.”
AI integration for investigation and response
Along with protecting cloud workloads, ESET Protect incorporates improvements driven by artificial intelligence that optimize business security, facilitating investigation and response to complex incidents.
These capabilities include advanced AI reporting in ESET LiveGuard Advanced, which offers detailed behavioral analysis and autonomous remediation functions after evaluation in sandbox cloud. This allows teams to improve enterprise security by having richer, contextualized and actionable information.
Additionally, ESET AI Advisor integrates directly into the main ESET Protect console, increasing operational efficiency and strengthening business security by helping analysts interpret results without changing environments, accelerating decision-making in the event of security events.
Intelligence to anticipate cybercrime attacks
In parallel, ESET has launched eCrime Reports, a new offering within its intelligence portfolio designed to strengthen business security through a strategic and operational vision of current threats.
The increase in the sophistication and volume of attacks, such as ransomware or infostealers, has increased the need for advanced intelligence. In this context, eCrime Reports contributes directly to enterprise security, providing access to exclusive data of real intrusions, campaign visibility, complete attack chronologies and analysis of tactics used.
This approach enables organizations to improve their enterprise security by anticipating threats, prioritizing relevant risks, and making more informed strategic decisions to strengthen their defensive posture.
“For more than 30 years, ESET has helped governments and companies protect their business security against the most advanced threats,” the company says. “The new eCrime Reports combine technical depth and practical guidance based on real data, providing actionable intelligence to anticipate attacks and strengthen defense.”
The eCrime Reports offering comes in two tiers—basic and advanced—and is designed to enhance enterprise security through strategic summaries and detailed technical analysis of specific campaigns, including complete timelines and indicator of compromise (IoC) streams.

These reports are based on proprietary telemetry and unique insights from real-world intrusions. By analyzing TTPs (tactics, techniques and procedures), eCrime Reports help boost enterprise security, identifying hidden patterns and facilitating more accurate strategic decisions.
Beyond the monitoring of leak sites (DLS) associated with MaaS and RaaS, these reports can be complemented with other sources of ESET’s own intelligence, such as Android Infostealer, malicious attachments, ransomware, cryptoscams, phishing, fraudulent URLs or smishing, thus comprehensively strengthening business security.
