Advanced Malware Protection Must Extend to Incident Detection and Response

Large organizations are under constant cyber attack by advanced malware that circumvents traditional security controls. In response, many CISOs have purchased new network or host-based advanced malware detection/prevention (AMD/P) tools for identifying and blocking malware. This is a good start, but what happens when advanced malware sneaks through security defenses and compromises servers and endpoints?  ESG believes that large organizations need to support AMD/P gateways and endpoint software with security intelligence, file activity monitoring, and forensic data capture that work collectively as an AMD/P architecture.
