Malware Control
Frequent hosting of guests and contractors as well as the continuous migration of laptops between trusted and untrusted onramps to the Internet make the LAN susceptible to the propagation of malware. The major issues are:
- the LAN needs protection against meltdown
- host and perimeter systems mostly protect against the known
- IT needs holistic view of user activity to detect malware
- blocking malware should not prevent user access on non-infected applications
With ConSentry, IT gets a powerful tool in the fight against malware, as part of the complete network access control solution. The ConSentry LANShield platforms:
- run a scan for malware prior to LAN admission
- use custom algorithms to detect malware after a user is on the LAN
- have algorithms tuned for anomalies based on application
- enable IT to block just an infected application or all traffic from an infected user
- prevent the spread of malware that can affect overall LAN availability
ConSentry’s malware protection complements host and perimeter protection devices and provides a vital layer of protection against threats coming onto the LAN.
