How it Works
Stop Attacks Anti-Virus Software Can't
Conventional malware solutions such as, anti-virus, spam gateways, and firewalls address “low-hanging fruit” associated with malware threats. However, they fail to adequately address sophisticated, socially-engineered malware attacks characteristic of the Advanced Persistent Threat (APT).
Raytheon RShield™ is a proven, scalable, enterprise e-mail malware detection solution designed specifically to respond to the unique APT challenges. RShield seamlessly analyzes email attachments and embedded URLs. To date, RShield has stopped thousands of malicious e-mails that anti-virus systems missed, including multiple zero-day attacks. All the attacks RShield detected would have evaded firewalls, desktop anti-virus, and other conventional security solutions.
RShield Features and Benefits:
- Behavior-based detection that can identify advanced zero-day malware that signature-based solutions miss
- Interoperates with existing mail infrastructures
- Scalable to the largest enterprise networks
- Operates in active IPS or passive IDS mode
- Advanced detection methods and algorithms operate in faster than real-time clock speeds
- Extensible detection framework allows end-user extensions to detection methods
- Automated forensics collection for malicious files
- Workflow driven processes decrease malware analysis time
