Web Malware Scanning

Web browsing has become the favorite target of malicious code writers seeking to compromise your network. The number of browser vulnerabilities continues to rise, fuelling zero-hour exploits which can infect systems before patches or signatures are available.

The threat is moving from the inbox to the browser with increasing focus on gaining financial advantage. This is most evident in the recent rise of spyware which comes in a wide variety of forms, from programs that steal confidential information to nuisance adware.

By the time most administrators realize they have a problem, the damage is already done, and they are left with the high cost of remediation, lost productivity, and unnecessary network traffic and system instabilities.

Increasing browser vulnerabilities, zero-hour threats, and the insertion of malicious code on legitimate sites have made real-time malware scanning essential (simply filtering by URL leaves a large security gap).

Scansafe's Web Malware Scanning service eliminates all types of harmful Web malware, including spyware, viruses and zero-hour threats before they can enter and infect your network.

This service delivers true layered defense through a combination of multiple best-in-class signature scan engines, multiple reputation and behavior analysis engines, automated machine-learning heuristics, and the industry's largest Web data set.

All Web requests are scanned in real-time, rather than solely relying on static URL lists, providing you with dynamic, real-time, and multi-layered protection.

Anti-malware scan engines will protect your network from threats that have been previously identified and documented. But what if your network is one of the first to be attacked?

Signature-based scanning alone will not provide the protection you need. Scansafe has developed Outbreak Intelligence, a proprietary security platform which analyzes URL reputation, traffic behaviour, code behaviour and code reputation in addition to signatures to detect unknown as well as known malware. Once it has detected unknown malware, Outbreak Intelligence automatically propagates the protection to the scanning layer, where the threat is neutralized before it can reach your network.
