Check Point SandBlast Agent for Browsers
The Power to Protect.The Insight to Understand.

Features:

Prevents zero-day malware

Check Point SandBlast Agent extends the proven protections of SandBlast Zero-Day Protection to endpoint devices and web browsers. Threat Extraction reconstructs downloaded files in seconds, eliminating potential threats and promptly delivering a safe version to users. At the same time, Threat Emulation discovers malicious behavior and prevents infection from new malware and targeted attacks by quickly inspecting files in a virtual sandbox.

Blocks zero-day phishing attacks

The Zero Phishing capability within SandBlast Agent uses dynamic analysis and advanced heuristics to identify and prevent access to new and unknown phishing sites targeting user credentials through web browsers in real-time. In addition, this capability prevents theft of corporate credentials from potential breaches of passwords on third party sites by alerting users when violating the corporate password re-use policies.

Identifies and contains infections

With a local version of Anti-Bot security protection, continuously updated with the latest Threat Intelligence data via ThreatCloud, SandBlast Agent identifies and blocks bot communications with command and control servers to contain and quarantine any infected hosts.

Comprehensive coverage across threat vectors

SandBlast Agent secures endpoint devices from threats delivered via:

• Web downloads
• Content copied from removable storage devices
• Links or attachments in email messages
• Lateral movement of data and malware between systems on a network segment
• Infections delivered via encrypted content

Full visibility of security events

The forensics capability within SandBlast Agent provides full visibility by monitoring and recording all endpoint events, including files affected, processes launched, system registry changes and network activity. SandBlast Agent is able to trace and report the steps taken by malware, including zero-day threats. Continuous monitoring by SandBlast Agent ensures that data is available after a completed attack, even those based on malware techniques that remove files and other indicators of compromise left on the system.

Detailed incident reports

The forensics capability within SandBlast Agent allows you to view event reports, triggered from the gateway or endpoint itself, from a central location using SmartEvent. Security Administrators can also generate reports for known malicious events, providing a detailed cyber kill chain analysis. These reports provide actionable incident analysis, accelerating the process of understanding the complete attack lifecycle, damage and attack vectors.

Third-party integration

SandBlast Agent works in conjunction with Antivirus and other security solutions from Check Point, as well as from other vendors. It enhances the detection capabilities of existing Antivirus products, enabling protection from advanced threats and providing actionable incident analysis.

When triggered by an event or investigation request by another Check Point component or third-party solution, endpoint forensics logs are analyzed to generate reports viewable in SmartEvent and SmartLog.

Actionable incident analysis

The forensics analysis process automatically starts when a malware event occurs. Using a combination of advanced algorithms and deep analysis of the raw forensic data, it builds a comprehensive incident summary. The summary provides key actionable attack information, including:

• Malicious events – What evidence of suspicious behavior was detected throughout the attack lifecycle?
• Entry point – How did the attack enter the network? What were the main elements used in the attack? How was the attack initiated?
• Damage scope – What is the damage? What malicious and suspicious behavior has occurred within the system? What data has been stolen?
• Infected hosts – Who else or what else is affected?

This comprehensive attack diagnostics and visibility supports remediation efforts. System administrators and incident response teams can swiftly and efficiently triage and resolve attacks, getting your organization back to business as usual quicker.

Easy to deploy and manage

SandBlast Agent provides flexible deployment options to meet the security needs of every organization. SandBlast Agent for Browsers can be quickly deployed as an integral part of the SandBlast Agent on the endpoint, or with a minimal footprint as a standalone solution for web browsers.

Regardless of which package you select, the non-intrusive, low-overhead deployment utilizes a SandBlast remote sandbox running as a service – on either the SandBlast Service or your own private appliances – resulting in minimal impact on local performance and full compatibility with installed applications.
