Mandiant<\/a> has announced that it will team with Palo Alto Networks, a network security company, to integrate Palo Alto Networks\u2019\u00a0 firewalls and its WildFire malware prevention subscription with Mandiant\u2019s recently announced product, Mandiant for Security Operation. Both companies will be presenting their solutions as participants at the RSA Conference 2013 in San Francisco from February 25th<\/sup>\u00a0to 28th<\/sup>.<\/p>\n

The joint solution from Palo Alto Networks and Mandiant provides a holistic approach to thwart advanced attackers by integrating malware detection and prevention capabilities on the network with the ability to resolve security incidents on endpoints. With this integration, Mandiant for Security Operations will automatically generate Indicators of Compromise (IOC) based on malware alerts generated by the Palo Alto Networks platform and identify which endpoints have been compromised. WildFire modern malware prevention service uses the inherent advantages of Palo Alto Networks next-generation firewalls to find new types of malware that have never been seen before across all applications \u2013 not just Web and email. To date, WildFire has discovered more than 70,000 new malware files that had not been identified by existing anti-malware solutions.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur mutual customers view this joint solution as a significant advantage to creating actionable insights to assess risk, prevent threats, and improve security,\u201d said Chad Kinzelberg, senior vice president of business and corporate development, Palo Alto Networks. \u201cWe are also confident that this strategic partnership will continue to lead our industry in security intelligence for enterprise organizations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mandiant for Security Operations is an appliance-based solution that utilizes a lightweight agent deployed on endpoints to enable security teams to confidently detect, analyze and resolve security incidents in a fraction of the time it takes using conventional approaches.<\/p>\n

Palo Alto Networks offers a subscription service for WildFire, the company\u2019s cloud-based modern malware prevention service. The WildFire service gives subscribers one-hour response times for the delivery of modern malware signatures, and integrated, on-box logging and reporting. The enhanced response time ensures that the damage caused by attackers using \u201czero-day\u201d malware is mitigated for Palo Alto Networks customers.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe tactics of targeted attackers and well-funded adversaries are constantly evolving,\u201d said Mandiant\u2019s Chief Technology Officer, Dave Merkel. \u201cWith the integration of the WildFire subscription malware detection service and Mandiant for Security Operations, security professionals will now be able to respond to threats faster and automatically investigate alerts from WildFire so they can confirm and resolve targeted attacks as they are unfolding.\u201d<\/p>\n
