Trend Micro Incorporated, a provider of security software and solutions, 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) family of products and Trend Micro Deep Discovery have combined to provide customers with a single, integrated solution for detection and enforcement. The solution identifies malware through static, dynamic, and behavioral techniques to block and neutralize threats before critical business data is compromised.
Deep Discovery 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. 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.
- 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.
“Today’s threat landscape calls for organizations to have a thorough, layered security strategy that not only identifies threats, but takes action to neutralize and block them,” says Rob Greer, vice president and general manager, TippingPoint, Enterprise Security Products, HP. “Now with the Trend Micro Deep Discovery technology, HP TippingPoint offers an added level of visibility and intelligence that in coordination with HP’s Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) and Next-Generation Firewall (NGFW), enables customers to detect and neutralize a targeted attack at the initial point of infection.”
HP TippingPoint Advanced Threat Appliance will be available early 2015 from HP and its channel partners. For more information, visit www.hp.com/go/ata.
