For the second consecutive year, Deep Discovery recognized as leader
in security, performance and total cost of ownership
Trend
Micro Incorporated (TYO:
4704; TSE:
4704), a global leader in security software and solutions, today
announced Trend Micro™ Deep Discovery™ Inspector v3.7 has once again
received a “recommended” rating based on the NSS
Labs Breach Detection Systems (BDS) test with an overall score of 96
percent. The evaluation analyzed overall detection rates of targeted
attacks and advanced threats among a field of eight security companies.
For the second year running, Deep Discovery has been cited as the most
effective “Recommended” breach detection system, providing superior
detection at a dramatically lower total cost of ownership.
“The NSS Labs Breach Detection Test is significant because it helps cut
through the marketing noise from some companies in our space that make
bold claims, yet fall short on execution according to the report,” said
Eva Chen, CEO, Trend Micro. “Targeted attacks and advanced threats have
become increasingly sophisticated and aggressive, making effective
breach detection paramount for companies regardless of industry. Deep
Discovery has consistently proven to be a reliable solution to face this
challenge. Another distinct advantage we offer is the accessibility of
our solution among even the most budget-conscious organizations.”
The test confirmed Deep
Discovery’s ability to detect a broad spectrum of Web-, email- and
file-based threats. Evaluation scenarios included analyses of command
and control, zero-day exploits and advanced malware, in addition to
other malicious payloads that plague networks.
“Today’s networks are under constant assault and it’s realistic to
assume that an infiltration by a targeted attack or advanced threat has
already taken place,” said Vikram Phatak, CEO, NSS Labs. “This fact
underscores the need for a best in class breach detection solution to
quickly assess network integrity and respond accordingly. Based on our
impartial testing, Trend Micro Deep Discovery’s consistent performance
distinguishes itself as the most effective of the breach detection
products that achieved a recommended status, a noteworthy
accomplishment, and should definitely be on everyone’s short list.”
Deep Discovery is unique given its ability to monitor and detect threats
across a broader attack surface than comparable offerings. Through a
single appliance, it identifies malicious and suspicious activity
throughout an entire network. Unlike perimeter based offerings Deep
Discovery Inspector monitors all network traffic across all ports, and
more than 100 protocols leveraging multiple detection capabilities in
addition to custom sandboxing. Plus, threat insight from Deep Discovery
can be automatically shared with both Trend Micro and third party
offerings using automated real-time security updates.
“We see millions of attempts on our network via remote access points
every week,” said David Shipley, Director of Strategic Initiatives
within the Office of the Associate Vice President, Information
Technology Services for UNB. “We needed, and continue to need,
increasingly sophisticated and automated security tools that can
accurately assess genuine threats and help us improve our response time
to those issues. Trend Micro Deep Discovery has been a huge benefit in
terms of understanding where the real threats are and in helping us
develop better strategies and processes to combat these threats.”
