Microsoft introduces zombie Threat Intelligence analyzer into the cloud to provide near-real-time data

The primary task of the Microsoft Digital Crime department in combating cybercrime is to protect users. We know that cleaning up the user's computers around the world that infect malware is as important as breaking the threat, so we launched the http://www.aliyun.com/zixun/aggregation/3022.html in 2010 ">project MARS (Microsoft active Response for security) plans to proactively combat botnets. Since the implementation of the program, we have been actively sharing our information on combating botnets with Internet service providers (ISPs) and the Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT) around the world. Now, with Microsoft's vast cloud resources, we are able to share information about known botnet malware infections with ISPs and CERT in real time. Leveraging the new Windows Azure Network Threat Intelligence Analyzer (C-TIP), these organizations can better understand the latest situation of network threats and inform users more quickly and efficiently about potential security issues with their computers.
