Tools and Tips for Analyzing Malware 2006-06-09 01:00:26 SANS Institute

Best practices system security policies recommend the settings required to lock down systems, such as users and groups, permissions, registry settings, passwords, etc. In addition to system settings, key patches that close security holes also need to be identified and applied. Rogue software that opens back doors also needs to be shut down, as well as unauthorized communications hardware. There are various market drivers for system security including industry regulations (HIPAA, GLBA and others), mandates from CEOs and CFOs driven by Sarbanes-Oxley, numerous industry events (SQL Slammer) and company events such as system breaches and failed audits.

Webcast: Does Your Anti-virus REALLY Protect You Against Spyware? 2006-09-18 08:57:03 Sunbelt Software

While most enterprise anti-virus software includes at least some protection against spyware, it's important to remember that anti-spyware functionality is just an afterthought in the majority of anti-virus solutions available today.

So it stands to reason that anti-virus tools that were designed first and foremost to scan for viruses and worms won't be as effective at detecting adware and spyware. With their focus primarily on files and processes, anti-virus solutions may simply not detect tell-tale signs of spyware such as groups of offending registry keys.

Check out this TechRepublic Webcast, now available on demand, to hear Sunbelt Software's President, Alex Eckelberry, and Director of Malware Research, Eric Howes, discuss spyware detection and why the lack of a specific and aggressive anti-spyware strategy can leave your company vulnerable to a host of contemporary security threats.

Moderated by James Hilliard of TechRepublic, the discussion covers these important topics and more:

The unique characteristics of spyware

Why anti-virus solutions may not always effectively detect and remove spyware

The key differences between anti-virus products and dedicated anti-spyware solutions

Independent tests have proven that stand-alone anti-spyware products are better than anti-virus solutions at detecting and removing spyware from networked computers. So check out this on-demand Webcast to learn more about the threats associated with spyware and the benefits of including a dedicated anti-spyware solution in your overall security posture.
