Organizations face a barrage of attacks by threat actors driven by a variety of motives, including profit, ideology/hacktivism, or even organizational discontent. Attackers’ tactics continue to evolve, and traditional IPS solutions have not been able to keep pace and effectively protect organizations. To prevent intrusions, malware and command-and-control at each stage of its lifecycle and shut down advanced threats, Threat Prevention accelerates the security capabilities of our next-generation firewalls, protecting the network from advanced threats by identifying and scanning all traffic – applications, users, and content – across all ports and protocols.
