FireEye Malware Protection Systems
FireEye is the world leader in combating advanced malware, zero-day and targeted APT attacks that bypass traditional defenses, such as next generation Firewalls, IPS, AV and Web gateways.
Over 95% of companies have no idea that there are compromised systems within their networks. Why?
A new generation of threats has eroded the effectiveness of security protections, leaving a hole in network defenses. Designed to use signatures to block known threats, traditional and next-generation firewalls, IPS, AV and Web gateways do nothing when unknown threats appear.
To fill this gap in network defenses, a new generation of security protections has emerged, ready to do battle against advanced malware, zero-day and targeted APT attacks. These next-generation security systems must plug the hole left by firewalls, IPS, AV and Web gateways by applying next-generation techniques to identify, confirm and block the activities of next-generation threats.
- Dynamic defenses to stop targeted, zero-day attacks - Analyze network traffic to identify new and unknown attacks in real time, rather than just comparing bits of code to signatures or shielding known vulnerabilities
- Real-time protection to block data exfiltration attempts - Stop outbound callback communications to disrupt compromised systems from being controlled and exploited from the external Command and Control servers
- Integrated inbound and outbound filtering across protocols - Take protective action across multiple protocols in both directions of communications, inbound exploits and infections and outbound callback channel communications to malicious Command and Control servers
- Accurate, low false positive rates - Confirm malware through comprehensive, automated testing that avoids the flood of false alarms inevitable with crude heuristics
- Global intelligence on advanced threats to protect the local network - Efficiently distribute newly confirmed malware intelligence, both within a site and across the Internet, to share the latest insight on both inbound attacks and outbound callbacks
FireEye's Malware Protection Systems automate these techniques to supplement traditional defenses, adding integrated inbound and outbound protection to combat today's stealthy Web and email threats. While these traditional security defenses provide a relevant policy enforcement function, they are now outmoded in terms of threat protection. FireEye appliances combine signature-based detections to detect the known with signature-less code execution to reveal the unknown. By linking inbound and outbound protections with dynamically generated malware intelligence exchanged through the FireEye Malware Protection Cloud, FireEye uniquely short-circuits the multiple stages and subtle communications of next-generation attacks.
