Detects bot-infected machines, prevents bot damage, and is continually updated from ThreatCloud

Features:

Complete Anti-Bot Solution

Complete Anti-Bot Solution - integrated into Check Point Software Blade architecture

• Discover, stop and assess bot damages on a single gateway
• Unified and centralized management
• Integrated with Check Point Antivirus Software Blade
• Available on every gateway

ThreatCloud™ Real-time Security Intelligence Feeds

ThreatCloud is a collaborative network and cloud-driven knowledge base that delivers real-time dynamic security intelligence to security gateways.  That intelligence is used to identify emerging outbreaks and threat trends.   ThreatCloud powers the Anti-Bot Software Blade allowing gateways to investigate always-changing IP, URL and DNS addresses where Command and Control Centers are known.  Since processing is done in the cloud, millions of signatures and malware protection can be scanned in real time.

ThreatCloud’s knowledgebase is dynamically updated using feeds from a network of global threat sensors, attack information from worldwide gateways, Check Point research labs and the industry’s best malware feeds.   Correlated security threat information is then shared among all gateways collectively.

Multi-Tier ThreatSpect™ Bot Detection Engine

Multi-Tier ThreatSpect™ Bot Detection Engine - the Anti-Bot Software Blade discovers infections by correlating multiple detection methods

• Reputation – evaluating IPs, URLs, and DNS addresses to determine whether outbound traffic is destined for known botnet Command and Control (C&C) sites.
• Patterns - detecting unique botnet family communication patterns (over multiple protocols such as HTTP, DNS and SMTP)
• Bot damages & actions by detecting attack types, such as Spam (leveraging outbound mail analysis) and Click fraud, as well as anomalies (irregular ports, protocols)
• Security intelligence is updated in real-time by ThreatCloud

Inline Bot Prevention

Inline bot prevention – block bot communications from infected hosts

• Support Inline and out-of-band deployment topologies
• Block bot specific communication to C&C sites to neutralize bot damages
• Ensure work continuity by blocking only bot traffic, yet allowing good traffic to continue

Integrated Malware Reports and Dashboards

Malware reports and dashboards are integrated with the Antivirus Software Blade with infection summaries and trends to provide better visibility to organizational malware threats and risks

• View infected hosts statistics, malware types and activities, trends/changes vs. previous week/month, amount of data sent or received and more

Summary of infected hosts

Extensive Forensics

Forensics - Provide administrators and security teams with the information they need to analyze security events, investigate infections and assess damages

• Detailed infection information per malware type and/or infected users and machines
• Identify bot names, amount of data sent and infection severity
• Key bot actions – identify suspicious activities such as participating in DDoS attacks, self-distribution attempts, and participating in click fraud
• Threat Wiki – extensive infection information (malware type, description and any available details such as executables run, used protocols etc.)
• Packet capture – view data sent using complete per-session packet capture with SSL inspection
