The Business Need for Content Security

The development and growth of the digital economy has changed the criminal landscape dramatically, posing a significant challenge for organisations that need to protect their networks, users and data.

With large-scale, generalised attacks abandoned in favour of more targeted and evasive techniques, Cybercriminals are constantly finding new ways to exploit technologies that will provide them with lucrative payoffs. Social networking sites and more recently, mobile devices, are being targeted to scam users and spread malware through increasingly sophisticated methods. By researching their victims and designing authentic-looking web communications, attackers trick users into clicking on an infected link or opening a document with embedded malware.  The result is that malware protection is no longer an option - it’s a necessity.

The Solution

Common malware protection technologies rely on reactive methods that detect known malware, such as malicious URLs, bad IP addresses or malware signatures. However, this approach is flawed as these technologies can only protect customers once someone has already been attacked. To provide true protection from the increasingly complex threats, organisations now require high-level web security solutions that offer a proactive and preventative approach.
