In this session you will hear how Symantec continues to focus our
comprehensive security expertise, global intelligence and portfolio on
giving organizations proactive, targeted attack protection today and in
the future.
You’ll learn about our roadmap across the Symantec email and gateway
security offerings.
We’ll reveal our expanded vision of Targeted Attack Protection spanning
email, gateway and cloud platforms to provide far greater protection, a
100% detection rate and rapid remediation of both common and

• SIEM integration
– API to pull down detailed data on malicious emails that have
been blocked by Email Security.cloud
• Mechanism
– Data Feeds are streamed on request through a URL
– HTTPS secures and encrypts the data, CSV format
• More detail
– 23 data points (vs. 9 in current Anti-Virus Detailed report)
– New data includes Targeted Attack analysis, Severity Level,
Geolocation of attacker and SHA256 hashes
• Synapse integration
– Event correlation drives prioritization and supports response
today, sets stage for automated protection in future releases
Reduce response time and effort with data correlation

Goal
• Provide high fidelity and automatically generated prioritized list of suspicious events
• Automates the “job” of finding suspicious events across your endpoints
• Informs you of attacks quicker and requires less effort
How
• Machine learning based algorithm
• Developed in collaboration with STAR
• Validated against specific enterprise data sets as opposed to broad, global data from enterprises
Requires
• Full visibility into all PE files created on the endpoint
• Full visibility into all AV and IP Ping data

How we solve the problem ….
Tell me about advanced threats
faster and better than anyone else
Give me actionable intelligence
so that I can defend my organization
Highlight the most important events
so I can prioritize my time
Protect, Detect, Respond
• Elastic cloud technologies detect 0-day
evasive threats through many techniques
of code execution and analysis
• Visibility into threats targeting both
managed and unmanaged clients
Advanced Threat Solution
• Synapse-driven event prioritization across
all Symantec control points
• Greater Symantec context gives you
additional intelligence: URL sources,
origin, files downloaded by that file,
processes created, etc.
• Deep file analysis provides a full

Detailed Malware Report | Threat Categories
Enhance visibility of advanced malware
Worm
The ability to replicate from across a network. Threats that do not require host files or sectors andself-replicate across disks (e.g., copying oneself to the floppy drive and from the floppy to the hard drive).
Viruses
(File Infector)
The ability to self-replicate on the same host.
Backdoor
Program or feature in a program that allows unauthorized remote control and access to the system on which it is installed without notice and consent. The program that controls (and often connects to) the backdoor can be considered a component of the backdoor even if it installs with notice and consent.
InfoStealer
Contains functionality that is intended to collect confidential data from the target system without adequate notice and without receiving appropriate consent. Confidential data includes information that most people would not be willing to share with someone and includes bank details, credit card numbers, and passwords.
Downloader
Installs or causes other malware to be installed on the system. Program whose sole purpose is to downloadprograms without adequate notice or consent.
Trojan
Without user consent, purposely modifies or deletes system components in such a way that the program
effectively disrupts the host computer's functionality so that activities that would have been possible before it was installed would not be possible after install. This includes changes made to a system to prevent it from accessing other resources on a network or Internet.
