Oct, 20 2010 lays down new avenues in the world of combat malware revealed today «Symantec Corporation» ™ technology, future security technical Ubiquity Super based on reputation, reliability and designed to combat malware that occur from time to time and affect millions of users. The company said that Ubiquity comes after technology ™ research efforts and continuous development lasted for more than four years, they enable «Symantec» of exploring patterns using software from more than 100 million computers-clients «Symantec» around the world, without knowing their users, and then protect fragile in the face of widespread threats or constraints that escape to evolving threats walmtbedlh completely from traditional security solutions that fail monitoring and repulsed.
It is known that the traditional protection of companies require the developer of security solutions to touch a certain strains of malware before they can be studied and analysed and then develop the mechanism for protection. «Symantec» were discovered in 2009, nearly 240 million unique threat model. Every threat has discovered, on average, in less than 20 computers or even discover some one no more globally.Such a shift in the threat environment making it can companies developed for security solutions to monitor and analyze all threats and protection thereof, as had an enormous burden on traditional methodologies to monitor and block malware.
And here that the importance of Ubiquity that adopt technology ™ totally different methodology to ensure clients «Symantec» that their information infrastructure completely protected from threats that traditional and emerging constantly.
May be summarized the most important technical advantages are: Ubiquity ™
• Detect the threats that escape the grip of traditional software: technical ™ adds protection layer entirely new Ubiquity enhances immune current in-depth methodology of «Symantec» which also includes strong protection, and protection from intrusions, and means of monitoring threats behavioural survey. And derive a security classification technique ™ Ubiquity for each file, based on its context, such as its source and age and pace of adoption by users of clients «Symantec», in addition to other accounts and data.While attackers can prevent malware files content so subtle look subtle and traditional software methodologies, they could not afford to control millions of users around the world. Technical ™ is a unique Ubiquity in the world to benefit from the complementary methodology.
• Better performance by up to 90 percent: reduces the Ubiquity of the impact of technology ™ cadastre for viruses by up to 90 percent by practical survey cadastral files previously identified as involving particular risks.This overall, cadastral operation speeds up, and completed intelligently, lower pace.
• Reduce the number of false alarms or inaccurate and reduce the burdens of managing security solutions: technical ™ does not contain data on malware Ubiquity, but categories for each applications available online, what makes this technology white list to have smart solutions for reliable code may not find it ever seen in their coverage.«Solutions» Symantec uses these data to make informed decisions and correct on the files to be withheld, what reduces the probability of false alarms or inaccurate.
• Provide strong protection based on specific policies of institutions: can use information provided by Ubiquity to enable technology ™ technical managers manage institutions informatics software within an environment users on policy files are easily understood and managed, based upon criteria such as categories safety files and data and the history of discovery and others.
Ubiquity ™ technology based on reputation and high reliability
Ubiquity is the first technology ™ technique of its kind in the world using information from more than 100 million computer system around the world, representing clients «Symantec» participants, as well as data from global survey information network of global company to give accurate safety ratings for all software files, sound and unsound even classified between this and that.Today, this technology provides safety ratings to smart over 1.5 billion unique file, to form database-shattering say them verbatim in the world.All the above technical ™ makes best able to cope with Ubiquity overload and continuous transformation of malware, including timely and up-to-date threats directed to a particular user around the world.
After include successfully in 2011 versions of individual security solutions» of «Norton, and recently in final points hosted service protection Symantec Hosted Endpoint Protection, Symantec gears «» technical ™ Ubiquity over scope solutions from enterprise solutions over the next year, starting with Symantec solutions Pack Web Gateway.
Amazing results
Despite posting recently, Ubiquity achieved impressive results ™ technology include the following:
• Include database technology ™ Ubiquity accurate safety ratings over 1.5 billion executable file, including files and sound files with malicious is added to the database as a new file 22 million per week.These figures are based on the move more than 118 million computers participant owned clients «Symantec» worldwide automated fashion, without the need to identify each user.
• Depending on the technical data Ubiquity ™» «Symantec found that more than 75 percent of malware affect fewer than 50 users of Symantec solutions «.»This distributed threats oriented appears on a small scale, and need a technology like ™ Ubiquity based on reputation and reliability contextual, to provide protection against various threats.
• Provide technical ™ Ubiquity over 45 million classified as safety for different applications per month for clients «Symantec».
• Technical ™ Ubiquity recently won the prize «Wall Street Journal for innovative technical solutions, the class of 2010» solutions network security within the court awards granted by prestigious newspaper.
Karam said Johnny, Regional Director of company «Symantec» Middle East and North Africa: "say today with absolute confidence that the Ubiquity of Symantec ™ technology is unmatched in the world with their inimitable to protect fragile environment of malware.Through the study of patterns using software with more than 100 million computers worldwide belonging to Symantec customers, technical ™ can be granted classification Ubiquity unique safety for all files and applications on the Internet.Undoubtedly, this helps us to protect vulnerable customers in the targeted malware that normally escape mutated from traditional antivirus software.
For his part, said Neil Macdonald, VP and fellow, global research and advisory organization «Symantec»: "the proliferation of electronic crime and reaches worrying levels, I discovered that companies rely entirely on the final point protection strategy based on blacklists malware are no longer effective or feasible.This method is totally inadequate to cope with large volumes of malware, as immune normally targeted attacks.In our view, the availability of databases classified safety files and applications on the Internet represent a glimmer of hope for us all, we must remember that applications will not show the start on the whitelist.In this context, the benefit of harmonized security infrastructure of contextual information to fill the gap when no files or applications can be classified, unambiguously, blacklist or whitelist. "
