Reflex Security Introduces Anti-Spyware Support to Network Intrusion Prevention Platform

Reflex Security, the pioneer in adaptive
intrusion prevention solutions, today announced an expansion to its Reflex
IPS network security appliance to include the detection and blocking of
spyware and adware. The Reflex Security spyware module recognizes malicious
programs such as adware, keyloggers, and dialers in the network and
proactively blocks them before they can damage host computers. According
to a recent report, spyware ranks at the top of problems faced by corporate
IT managers, accounting for almost 67% of all malware threats in enterprise
networks.

"Spyware and other unwanted programs have evolved beyond annoying to become
a serious security threat. Not only can Reflex block them before they
enter into the network, but because we inspect all network traffic, we can
also prevent communication from spyware on preinfected mobile workstations
when they return to the corporate network," said Hezi Moore, CTO of Reflex
Security. "The Reflex Security Sentrium™ technology and adaptable
architecture makes it easy to enable different types of threat prevention
on the fly. Businesses no longer will have to worry about installing
additional client software or maintaining another gateway point solution."

The Reflex Security's IPS solution operates inline on the network and
analyzes all traffic in real-time. By using multiple detection and
prevention algorithms, the IPS appliance can determine malicious traffic or
network payload and automatically mitigate the danger without impact or
latency on network performance. Reflex Security was recently short listed
as a SC magazine global award finalist for best intrusion prevention system
and received Tolly Group certification with a 100% rating on its ability to
identify and block attacks in recent independent tests.
