Today’s malware has evolved to evade detection. One case in point is the emergence of fileless malware, which uses authorized applications and protocols to perform malicious actions. These sophisticated programs are far more difficult to uncover, even with the most advanced, next-generation antivirus or Advanced Endpoint Protection (AEP). AEP is quite good at blocking viruses and even zero-day malware using non-signature-based methods.
However, it is vulnerable.
This whitepaper discusses some of AEP’s shortcomings as well as how to supplement the system with powerful threat assessment/detection solutions such as Active Threat Sweep.
