Your benefits:

• One of the most powerful anti-virus solutions on the market
• Protection against complex threats
• Protection for mobile devices
• Protection against internal threat proliferation

Threat evolution

The leaps and bounds of social networking, the posting of content to Web 2. 0 by internet users and the use of mobile devices provide new gateways for cybercrime. The development of malicious content to achieve criminal goals is becoming increasingly inventive. Traditional protection systems are less and less able to detect the source code of malware. Malware can completely paralyse your system or exfiltrate confidential data. Solutions are needed that are capable of blocking such threats, including those of an unknown nature, and reporting abnormal behaviour. The Network Advanced Antivirus Option for Stormshield Network Security applications does not rely solely on a signature-based system. The solution includes emulation mechanisms for proactive detection of malware code.

Mobility and new usage

The increasing proliferation of mobile devices has led to new usage habits in businesses. More and more employees are using private end devices, which are often unprotected or poorly protected, to connect to the company's IT system. These computers are a prime target for cybercrime because they are not maintained by the teams responsible for IT security. To ensure complete protection against malware on these machines, an antivirus solution is needed that starts directly at the interface of the network flows.

Perimeter protection

It often happens that an antivirus solution on workstations and servers causes problems for part of the IT park (installation forgotten, inactive agent, antivirus not up to date, configuration not correct ...). Such a situation potentially endangers your IT system if a complementary solution to protect against malware is not installed on your network filtering technology. The Network Advanced Antivirus Option for Stormshield Network Security applications has the advantage of always being up to date in terms of signatures. It checks the data streams of all computers in the network for viruses. The basis is a behavioural analysis technology of the sandboxing type, through which the detection of unknown threats is also possible.
