SAN FRANCISCO – RSA Conference 2012 – FireEye announced the release of a new appliance that will detect and remove malware introduced to the network through Web mail, FTP, personal storage, and other means.
The File MPS security appliances analyze file shares using FireEye’s Virtual Execution (VX) Engine that detects malicious code embedded in all common file types. The File MPS performs recursive, scheduled, and on-demand scanning of accessible network file shares to identify and quarantine resident malware.
“Our new product offering gives FireEye the unique ability to offer the complete answer to protection against APT attacks,” said Ashar Aziz, founder, CEO and CTO at FireEye.
“With the addition of File MPS to FireEye Malware Protection System, we have changed the protection landscape to prevent advanced targeted attacks from penetrating defenses as well as from spreading into file shares and establishing long-term footholds in networks.”
Pricing for the Fire MPS starts at US$54,950.
