FireEye Technology Overview
The FireEye Analysis & Control Technology (FACT) engine forms the core of the FireEye Anti-botnet Protection System.
The FACT engine unifies virtualization and network security to very accurately identify botnet malware that does not belong in the network. The FACT engine:
- Identifies suspicious network activities — Flags suspicious traffic from potentially infected machines for further analysis.
- Confirms malicious impact — Potentially damaging network traffic is sent into the virtual victim machines to confirm it results in a real attack, known or unknown.
Now, analysis of dynamic botnet malware can be reliably automated to extract C&C locations, capture botnet command structures, and confirm bot propagation attacks. Find out more!
