Integration is the key to effective security

Many IT security executives use a variety of security solutions, but often do not communicate effectively with each other and hinder effective defenses, which is then analyzed by Trend Micro.

Profiling attacks

A complete threat defense platform should cover four elements across the entire life cycle of a threat:

Prevention : Assess vulnerabilities and potential threats and proactively protect endpoints, servers, and applications.

detection : Find malware that is not detected and blocked in the first phase.

Analysis : Assess the impact of risk and identify threats.

Response : Provides signatures and updates to prevent subsequent attacks.

Unfortunately, most organizations do not have a fully integrated platform to centrally control across these four quadrants. This means that the threat can drill holes into the business network, causing damaging damage to the hard drive or huge loss of customer data and intellectual property.

There are no connection threat defenses that could happen:

The attack starts with an e-mail message, and the attachment file can make a 0-time lag exploit and pose a data theft threat.

L Zero-point exploit threat bypasses traditional defense techniques, making the detection phase important. Malware escapes the radar and hides it for weeks, months or even years to steal your most sensitive confidential information.

At this stage, if a threat cannot be detected and analyzed and evaluated through an endpoint sensing program, you cannot determine whether the threat has spread within your organization and cannot be controlled. Without the analysis phase, it is possible to leave malware on your system.

Failure to analyze complex threats, or to detect malware with sandbox technology or to find C&C traffic with network layer analysis, you cannot share signatures to all endpoint and gateway security components, so that you cannot automatically block them the next time you encounter this threat.

Integrated threat Protection

In today's threat environment, you not only need security solutions in place to cover the four quadrants mentioned, they also need to be tightly integrated and managed through a single console. This simplifies the daily work and threat investigation tasks of the IT security team, and the resulting threat intelligence can be fed back to the system, sharing the resulting signatures instantly.

Trend Micro Server Deep Security defense system deepsecurity, modules that can be combined in a variety of ways include anti-malware, web reputation, firewalls, intrusion prevention, integrity monitoring, and log checking to ensure the security of applications and data for servers in physical, virtual, and cloud environments.
