Retail & Hospitality Cybersecurity
Protect Revenue, Brand Trust, and Customer Experience
The Challenge
Retailers and hospitality providers operate highly distributed, customer-facing environments where uptime directly impacts revenue and reputation. Modern intrusions rarely rely on obvious malware. Instead, attackers abuse legitimate, trusted tools already present in the environment: RMM software, signed drivers, administrative utilities, and scripting engines to move laterally across store networks, access payment systems, and deploy ransomware. The activity looks legitimate. Until transactions stop.

Powered by Windows Defender Application Control (WDAC), MagicSword enforces execution control across point-of-sale terminals, store endpoints, franchise systems, back-office environments, and corporate headquarters using continuously updated intelligence-driven blocklisting.
