Cyber Information Protection

To prevent cyber attacks against sensitive information requires sustained vigilance, as threat actors are determinedly focused on the theft, or exfiltration, of protected information, continually evolving their attack methods to bypass organizations’ security countermeasures.  Attacks have become more customized and have moved further up the architecture to the application layer, deploying more custom “zero day” attacks and often taking advantage of user behavior rather than technical weaknesses—making it challenging for traditional inbound threat mitigation measures to actually prevent cyber attacks.

A new approach to prevent cyber attacks is required as traditional security tools struggle with custom cyber attacks, attacks above the protocol layer, as well as attacks that take advantage of user behavior.Fidelis XPS provides an important layer of defense to the network security infrastructure by providing real-time session-level visibility and control for outbound and optionally bi-directional communications to protect sensitive information from breach—whether to leakage, cyber theft, or exfiltration.

Constantly evolving threats require a new layer of visibility and control to best protect an organization’s assets. The Fidelis Extrusion Prevention System®, Fidelis XPS™, gives organizations an important layer of defense-in-depth to their network security infrastructure with the power to prevent cyber attacks, enabling:

• Session-level Visibility & Control– As the threat has evolved to target applications and end users, traditional deep packet inspection technology has failed to keep up.  Fidelis XPS Deep Session Inspection™ technology provides visibility and control from the protocol through enterprise content to ensure protected and sensitive information is protected.  Fidelis XPS controls include:
  • - Port-independent inspection covering all 65,535 ports on multi-gigabit speed networks;
  • - Content inspection for protected/sensitive information;
  • - Content inspection for malicious traffic and payloads;
  • - Port-hopping/tunneling detection;
  • - Data flows to unexpected countries; and
  • - Rogue encryption at both the network and file level.

• Automated Incident Response– Fidelis XPS’ robust controls enhance the network security architecture, enabling pro-active prevention of cyber attacks and more efficient incident response—resulting in more comprehensive protection of protected and sensitive information from cyber attacks.  From attack identification and containment, through to mitigation, Fidelis XPS is a critical component in the incident response workbench.
  • - Identify compromised hosts due to transfers of sensitive or protected information, non-normal, or  high-risk network traffic.
  • - Send feeds on session-level network information for event correlation (SEIM, log management, etc.).
  • - Determine information transferred and, if desired, prevent further transfer of information.
  • - Block malicious communications (e.g., Command & Control, propagation).
  • - Block malicious payloads based on knowledge from compromised systems.

• Comprehensive Information Protection– Fidelis XPS is the industry's only network security solution with the power to defend against cyber attacks, even on multi-gigabit-speed networks, enabling your organization to achieve comprehensive information protection by:
  • - Protecting Content
  • - Controlling Application Activity
  • - Enforcing Encryption Policy
  • - Mitigating Threat
