Product Watch: NetWitness To Add Real-Time Malware Analysis

New tool assesses, scores, and prioritize risks from malware found in the enterprise

NetWitness next week will add a new dimension to its network monitoring portfolio with an automated malware-analysis and prioritization tool.
The new Spectrum platform doesnt use a closed sandbox or a proprietary signature-based cloud service, but rather gathers and interprets real-time intelligence from around the security community via its
NetWitness Live
service. Spectrum is integrated with the companys network monitoring platform.
Spectrum basically assesses, scores, and prioritize risks from malware thats detected. It looks at the difference between whats good and everything else and uses a metric to score the threat, for instance, says Eddie Schwartz, chief security officer at NetWitness, who described the approach of Spectrum as an open analytic process.
NetWitness new product will compete against offerings from FireEye and Damballa, for instance, according to Schwartz. Pricing begins at $50,000.
With NetWitness Spectrum, we are combining the pervasive knowledge and real-time power of our flagship enterprise network monitoring platform with analytic vectors from numerous sources and methods, said Tim Belcher, chief technology officer at NetWitness in a statement.
