## The answer, as recorded

Asked on 2026-10-02 through Claude (Anthropic) with web search (model claude-opus-5).

> Here's what I'd actually recommend, roughly in the order I'd consider them for a remote/distributed team:
> 
> **1. CrowdStrike Falcon** - My default recommendation for most teams. Cloud-native with a genuinely lightweight agent, which matters when your endpoints are on home Wi-Fi and never touch a corporate network - there's no VPN dependency for policy or signature updates. Best-in-class threat intel and investigation tooling, and the strongest Linux/macOS coverage of the big three. Falcon Go starts around $60/device/year, so it's reachable for small teams too.
> 
> **2. SentinelOne Singularity Complete** - The one I'd pick if ransomware is your top fear. Its detection engine runs on-agent with AI, so it still protects and responds when a laptop is offline - a real advantage for travelling staff. It also has one-click rollback of malicious encryption, which no one else does as cleanly. Roughly $80/endpoint/year. It tied CrowdStrike at the top of the 2025 MITRE ATT&CK evaluation with zero delayed detections.
> 
> **3. Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Plan 2** - The obvious answer *if* you're already on Microsoft 365 E5 with Windows devices managed through Intune and Entra ID. It's included at
