Web Security

While the Web has improved many aspects of organizational operation, it also exposes organizations to crippling vulnerabilities. Network resources and security are susceptible to malware, viruses, spam, phishing, spyware — and more. And, it's become obvious that the Web, with its "out of network" vulnerability and limitless reach, has become the preferred tool for malware distribution and cybercrime. Even legitimate sites used every day by millions of organizations are vulnerable.

What Web threats compromise network security? There are many:

• Crimeware - Since 2006, Web crime has been "commercialized" and it's proven quite popular and profitable.
• Malicious Code - Web pages aren't the only place for malicious code. PDF files and Flash are popular with cybercriminals, too.
• Window of Vulnerability - The only speed that can keep up with Web threats is real-time speed.
• Encrypted Malware - Malware is bad. Encrypted malware, hidden in an SSL connection, is much worse.
• Spyware - Designed to evade signature-based AV, URL filtering and reputation-based solutions, spyware is hard to catch — and trouble if it's not detected.
• Phishing - A funny name with serious consequences, phishing attacks open organizations up to fraud liability and can jeopardize confidential information.
• Viruses - How to beat viruses? Scan for them with an AV solution, and then scan even deeper with active, real-time content inspection.
• Productivity Inhibitors - When users aren't using the Web for work purposes, chances are they are playing on it. Productivity is money and unmonitored Web access can lead to lost revenue, unless it is managed.
