Advanced Network Malware Detection

Emerging Internet trends like mobility, P2P applications, cloud-based services, and social media are giving us better access to information at the expense of security. Modern network malware can exploit these trends to evade traditional network perimeter defense systems (firewalls, Intrusion Prevention Systems (IPS), email scanning appliances, etc) and compromise your network.

The underlying problem is that today's perimeter defense systems assume your network is clean and focus exclusively on preventing threats from getting in. MetaFlows' advanced malware detection technology instead assumes that your internal assets might already be compromised and continuously performs multi-functional, multi-session network intrusion detection analysis. As cyber security threats are detected (regardless of how they got in), they are shut down and reported through our browser-based security management console.

Traditional cyber-security defenses are myopic and asymmetric; the attackers collaborate globally while the security vendors struggle independently. MetaFlows SaaS technology disrupts this trend by letting Enterprises anonymously share threat intelligence.

When you deploy our technology, your enterprise becomes an integral part of our global cloud-based correlation system, It will immediately start receiving shared threat intelligence recommendations while transmitting security events to the cloud in real time. For example, our Network Antivirus system not only uses more than fifty (55+) antivirus solutions at once, but also uses a mix of proprietary, commercial and collaborative feeds to analyze the behavior of the content as it is executed/opened to determine whether it is well behaved. Our SaaS architecture transparently manages all software and intelligence updates requiring virtually zero system administration.

In order to reliably identify hidden threats, our network security monitoring software needs to perform several CPU intensive, deep packet analysis functions in real time. Dynamically executing content through sandboxes also requires plenty of CPU and RAM.

Fortunately, our network security monitoring software easily meets these processing requirements using open software, hardware, and virtualization standards. MetaFlows offers inexpensive, turn-key, malware detection appliances ranging in capacity from 50 Mbps to 10 Gbps. Importantly, you can also build your own appliances by simply downloading our software on Linux Centos or RHEL systems (physical or virtual). Our software was designed as an open system and can therefore be easily customized and integrated into any existing infrastructure. Start a free trial today on your own existing hardware!
