📌The Solution that Transcends Next-Generation Firewall and End-Point Detection and Response
UGUARD Defense Trust New Generation Threat Intelligence Inline Detects and Blocks Cybersecurity Attacks

Cybersecurity Service Company S-RM disclosed that ransomware Akira successfully broke into a business’ network through its Linux-based webcam clients that lack any end-point detection and response (EDR) protection. This event also reveals that in the IoT era, any connected client can be the vulnerable endpoint to a business network—especially with a diverse type of connected devices available on the market that may have compatibility issues with single EDR system, further posing a huge challenge to enterprise cybersecurity protection (in like automation application scenarios).

 UGUARD NETWORKS rolled out Defense Trust New Generation Threat Intelligence solution that features self-established Defense Cloud for auto-collecting and compiling threat intelligence lists to perform real-time updates and imports into Defense Trust system for proactively detecting and blocking malicious connection attacks.  

Deployed in inline mode, UGUARD Defense Trust can help enterprises seamlessly monitor and inspect packets/traffic flow. Developed on new open-source non-SQL database structure, Defense Trust’s comparison speed of threat intelligence lists (capable of more than 1 million records at a time) is further facilitated to thoroughly block any potential malicious connection and prevent any resultingly bandwidth waste. 

Unlike next-generation firewall that requires manual updates of threat intelligence lists, UGUARD Defense Trust supports automatic and real-time updates and identification of effective threat intelligence lists through 13-type threat intelligence (about 1 million records) from UGUARD Defense Cloud and through other threat intelligence (about 6 million records) integrated from open-source databases or third-party organizations (e.g. X-Force) globally. With such comprehensive and accurate threat intelligence databases, Defense Trust can effectively block more than 80% known malicious websites (such as phishing sites/malware downloads/botnets/C&C connections) and thus realize Zero-Day protection for enterprise networks.

Featuring simple and intuitive X-View centralized management reporting function, UGUARD Defense Trust is designed for enterprise IT administrators to easily lookup and monitor status/blockage reports for both Defense Trust and the operating business network based on specified time periods (in day/week/month/year) and user/activity group (such as service/website type). Defense Trust X-View also supports file exports in PDF/CSV/HTML formats for easy online/offline info. lookup and sharing across different end devices anytime anywhere.
