Trend Micro has signed a strategic OEM agreement with HP to help enterprises combat advanced targeted threats and custom malware.
The HP TippingPoint Advanced Threat Appliance (ATA) damily of products leverages Trend Micro’s Deep Discovery to provide customers with a single, integrated solution for detection and enforcement. The solution identifies malware through static, dynamic and behavioural techniques to block and neutralise threats before critical business data is compromised.
“We are very pleased to have been selected by HP after its comprehensive and rigorous review of market-leading breach detection systems,” says Partha Panda, vice-president of global channels and alliances at Trend Micro. “This agreement further validates the quality and effectiveness of our solution. It is a natural extension to our long-standing partnership with HP, and will help further accelerate the adoption of Trend Micro’s capabilities to combat next generation threats. Now, HP customers can detect, block and investigate targeted attacks with a comprehensive, integrated solution.”
Deep Discovery is trusted by enterprises globally in a broad range of industries. It was designed to provide comprehensive, 360 degree visibility of cybercriminal activity to detect targeted attacks, custom malware, C&C communications and suspicious activities invisible to standard security solutions.
Unlike other solutions, Deep Discovery:
* Scans all network ports and more than 80 network protocols, in addition to web and email traffic;
* Detects threats by using custom sandbox images that match system configurations; and
* Uses multiple threat detection techniques to identify a broad set of attack signatures across a range of endpoints and mobile devices, including Microsoft Windows, Apple OS X, and Android.
Custom sandboxing is an essential part of an effective breach detection solution, enabling enterprises to prevent evasion based on generic configuration checks by identifying and evaluating custom malware to determine if it is a threat.
