Identify trusted, authorized software automatically.Identify and control which applications are allowed to run in your environment.This mitigates the risks posed by malicious, illegal, and unauthorized software in the corporate environment. Multi-Engine Anti-MalwareĪpplication Control prevents threats from executing and running scripts, even if they bypass other security layers to get onto your device. Within minutes, we use that knowledge to protect our customers.įor example, if DeepGuard's heuristic and behavior analysis identifies a zero-day attack, the information is shared with all protected devices via the WithSecure Security Cloud-rendering the advanced attack harmless mere minutes after initial detection.įor more on the functions and benefits of WithSecure™ Security Cloud, consult our technical whitepaper. We gather threat intelligence from hundreds of thousands of a large number of client nodes, building a real-time picture of the global threat situation. The Security Cloud is constantly in touch with client systems, identifying new threats as they emerge and providing protection within minutes.Ī cloud-based threat analysis service affords many benefits over traditional approaches. It utilizes Big Data and Machine Learning, among other input, to continuously add to our knowledge base of digital threats. The WithSecure™ Security Cloud is our own cloud-based threat analysis system. WithSecure™ DataGuard is available in WithSecure™ Elements EPP for Computers Premium. Among other benefits, the Data Access module enables the recovery of data in the event of a successful ransomware attack, as it cannot encrypt the data located in those folders. The Data Access module ensures that the data in these folders is not destroyed, tampered with, or encrypted by malicious or unknown applications, such as ransomware. The feature's complementary detection logic significantly increases detection accuracy and aggressiveness against ransomware and their encryption processes. The high-risk and value-critical folders include, for example, the Downloads folder (web downloads), document folders, temp files (email attachments), and data repositories. It makes them significantly more fortified against ransomware, and prevents malicious and unknown applications from destroying or tampering with the data that they contain. WithSecure™ DataGuard subjects selected high-risk and value-critical folders to advanced monitoring and additional detection logic.
