16 Targeted Attacks

17 Protection Against Targeted Attacks Reputational & BehavioralProtection (SEP) Detect and block new and unknown threats based on global reputation and behavior of files Host-based IntrusionDetection and Prevention (DCS) Locks down key systems that contain confidential information Prevents any unauthorized code to run — independent of AV signatures Removable Media Device Control(SEP) Restrict removable devices and functions to prevent malware infection Email & Web Gateway Security Scan & block email with potentially malicious URLs, attachments or content. Monitor inbound/outbound web traffic and block accordingly Encryption Discover data spills of confidential information that are targeted by attackers Detect and prevent exfiltration of confidential information that are targeted by attackers Endpoint & Network DataCorrelation (MSS-ATP) Create and enforce security policies so all confidential information is encrypted Network Threat and VulnerabilityMonitoring (MSS) Prioritize threat information detected at the network through security intelligence and information coming from endpoint security devices.

18 Zero-day Vulnerabilities

19 Avoiding Data Breaches 19 Data Classification (Insight) Determine what sensitive information exists in your organization Categorize it appropriately and protect it according to its classification level Data Loss Prevention (DLP) Detect and prevent exfiltration of sensitive information that is targeted by attackers Enforce rules prohibiting access of confidential data using applications Host-based IntrusionDetection and Prevention (DCS) Locks down key systems that contain confidential information Prevents any unauthorized code to run — independent of AV signatures Email & Web Gateway Security Scan & block email with potentially malicious URLs, attachments or content. Monitor inbound/outbound web traffic and block accordingly Encryption Create and enforce security policy so all confidential information is encrypted Strong Authentication (VIP) Use two-factor authentication to protect against credential theft
