Sophos (LSE: Soph), a global provider of security of networks and terminals introduced the synchronized security protection against sophisticated threats of today -. with Sophos Security Heartbeat capability of the Sophos XG series of firewalls and UTMs "next generation"
new technology connects directly "next generation" firewalls and UTMs with endpoint security "new generation" of sharing threat intelligence enabling faster threat detection, automatic isolation of infected devices, and the most immediate and targeted response and resolution.
Sophos Security Heartbeat
With security Heartbeat organizations of all sizes would be able to advance their defenses against attacks increasingly coordinated and stealthy and drive a dramatic reduction in the time and resources to investigate address security incidents.
Heartbeat safety pulse continuous, real-time information on suspicious behavior or malicious activity between the ends and the network firewall or UTM. By giving these traditionally independent product the opportunity to directly share intelligence, security Heartbeat can instantly trigger a response to stop or help control an malware epidemic or data breach.
The XG Sophos Firewall uses data provided by the protection of Sophos terminals to isolate and restrict access to and from the device in question, and in parallel, endpoint protection can remedy the attack.
IT organizations can benefit from these advanced protection capabilities against threats without additional agents, complex layers of management tools, operational and analysis tools, or costs. The Security Heartbeat is fully activated and included in the Sophos Firewall XG and the protection of Sophos Cloud-managed terminals.
How does the Sophos Security Heartbeat do?
- When a new Sophos protected criterion is added to the network, its Heartbeat Security automatically connects to the local Sophos XG Firewall and endpoint begins immediately share the health .
- If the suspect traffic is identified by the firewall, or malware is detected on the endpoint, security and information of the threat is immediately shared securely through the Security Heartbeat.
- criterion relates rich context information such as the information the computer name, user name and the process associated with the threat.
- firewall can automatically take steps to isolate the endpoint of internal and / or external networks and trigger further action on the endpoint to mitigate risk and prevent data loss.
- After the threat has been removed, the endpoint uses the Heartbeat of security for communicating updated health status to the network, which then restores the service to the end.
"Today, Sophos has taken the next big step towards the next generation of security," said Kris Hagerman, CEO of Sophos . "Organizations of all sizes know they need endpoint security and network security - they are two fundamental pillars of any iT security strategy, but for too long, these two product segments simply do not communicate with each other. - they were independent and insulated silos, which limited their effectiveness and management. synchronized security offers both better protection and better management for organizations of any size.
