FireEye debuts real-time protection platform – Oculus

FireEye has announced the launch of global, real-time, continuous protection platform Oculus. The company has combined people, products and intelligence to deliver what it believes is the worlds' strongest defence system to counter today's targeted cyber-attacks.
 
David DeWalt, CEO, FireEye, said, Today's attack landscape knows no boundaries or time zones. Customers need protection around the clock and around the world. With Oculus, FireEye has re-imagined security to help organizations combat and defeat the menace of cybercrime and espionage. Oculus gives organizations  large and small  a global, real-time continuous protection platform to help protect brand, intellectual property and data. With Oculus, FireEye brings together what customers have been demanding  a unique combination of virtual machine technology, big data analysis and 24x7 worldwide support and service infrastructure.
 
The new platform includes Threat Prevention Platform addressing advanced cyber-attacks. The platform features the patented Multi-Vector Virtual Execution (MVX) engine that conducts signature-less analysis atop a patented, virtualization technology purpose-built for security. In addition, to counter the growing menace of malicious mobile applications, FireEye plans to augment its MVX technology by releasing a new SaaS-based platform named FireEye Mobile Threat Prevention early next year.
 
On an hourly basis, FireEye customers benefit from updated threat intelligence on worldwide cybercrime networks and nation state actors using Dynamic Threat Intelligence.
 
Utilizing this platform, FireEye protects its global customers via 24x7 worldwide supports in all major regions around the world. This protection service allows FireEye customers to leverage FireEye's expertise in addressing today's cyber-threats and gain insight into their security posture relative to their industry vertical, allowing them to conduct a continuous risk assessment of their organization.
