M86 Secure Web Gateway
The award-winning M86 Secure Web Gateway (M86 SWG) is a proactive, appliance-based solution that provides real-time Web security, increases productivity, ensures compliance and controls bandwidth. Using patented real-time malware detection technology, URL filtering and anti-virus scanning ,the M86 SWG protects organisations from crimeware, malware and other threats associated with Web 2.0 applications.
At its core is M86's Vital Web Security Suite™, a group of complementary technologies that include Real-time Code Analysis, Vulnerability Anti.dote™, and Dynamic Web Repair™. Together, they provide the most accurate, comprehensive real-time Web security protection available.
A Multi-Layered Security Solution
Many Web security solutions no longer combat today's sophisticated Internet and Web 2.0-based attacks effectively. Why? Because a window of time exists between the moment a threat is detected and the time it's added to a database, leaving users vulnerable to exposure. In addition, dynamically-generated attacks enable cybercriminals to stay one step ahead of many traditional security technologies.
M86 SWG technologies are proven to detect attacks that evade other security solutions. The M86 SWG dynamically identifies and blocks known, unknown, evolving and obfuscated malicious code. It goes beyond simple "block and allow" rules, removing malicious script from compromised legitimate Web pages. It then delivers safe, formatted content to the end user, enabling a safe and productive work environment.
Key Technologies
Real-time Code Analysis: Preempts Unknown, Dynamic Threats
M86's Real-time Code Analysis engine detects and blocks obfuscated code and other dynamic cybercrime techniques in real time. It scans and analyzes all incoming and outgoing Web content communicated over HTTP and HTTPS, regardless of origin and without signature matching. As a result, malware is detected and blocked before entering the network-even when hiding in encrypted SSL traffic.
Vulnerability Anti.dote™: Closes the Vulnerability Gap for Known, Zero-hour Attacks
Using behavioral analysis, Vulnerability Anti.dote identifies and blocks malicious content that exploits known and newly-discovered Web vulnerabilities. Its scanners detect these weaknesses at the point of discovery, before malware can be written and before a patch is released, eliminating exposure to the threat. It is the only technology that provides true zero-hour defense, even against unpublished vulnerabilities.
Dynamic Web Repair™: Eliminates Malicious Code from Web Content
In the event a legitimate website is compromised, Dynamic Web Repair removes the malicious code seamlessly, without blocking the website. After eliminating the offending code, Dynamic Web Repair delivers the safe Web content to the user, ensuring continued productivity.
anti-virus and URL Filtering: Manage Productivity and Scans for Known Viruses
M86 offers a choice of fully-integrated anti-virus and URL filtering engines as well as SSL-inspection engines. Serving as a first line of defense, these technologies monitor user activity and block known viruses prior to the deep content scanning performed by Active Real-time Code Analysis.
