PC Matic vs Rising Endpoint Security

PC Matic provides antivirus and endpoint security for home and business users on Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. Its SuperShield protection uses real-time application allowlisting and a default-deny approach that blocks unknown applications. PC Matic says this can stop ransomware before execution; it also describes using heuristics to block malicious scripts that call tools such as PowerShell. On Windows PCs, scans can run maintenance including software and driver updates, junk-file removal, and fixes for software vulnerabilities. Consumer plans list malicious ad and scam blocking and dark web monitoring; the family identity plan adds identity theft insurance and stolen funds reimbursement, each up to $1M. PC Matic Pro applies default-deny allowlisting to applications, scripts, and processes, and can sit alongside other endpoint security solutions. The consumer page lists a free plan and free trial. Paid annual options include Antivirus at $60 a year, Antivirus + VPN at $110 a year, and Antivirus + VPN + Family Identity Protection at $210 a year.

Rising Endpoint Security is enterprise intranet security software built around ESM 3.0. It combines antivirus, vulnerability scanning, behavioral protection, device control, server protection, and management of computers’ information and hardware and software resources. Administrators use a web-accessible management center to monitor network computers, manage them centrally, set security policies, and issue operation or upgrade commands. A business center distributes policies and tasks and receives endpoint logs and status information. Enterprises can deploy different subproducts according to their management needs. The platform includes a patch download center for storing patch files and managing download tasks. Listed clients are Windows and Linux, including mainstream Linux systems and adapted domestic platforms and operating systems. Management, business, and upgrade centers list Windows Server 2003 through Windows Server 2019, with IIS and .NET required for some components. The product is paid, pricing is on request, and the installation package includes a short-term trial license of unspecified duration.
