SCOPE OF PROTECTION
Waterfall helps with these issues:
•
defacement
•
phishing
•
trojans
•
viruses
•
zombies
•
pests
Any Contents and the
operating system of any computer with Internet connection can be protected, be it the company file server, mail server or multiple workstations.
Waterfall protects web sites against
site defacement, that willfully 're-designs' web page content to damage brand image, and
phishing where visitors are unwittingly redirected to a different site to steal their login credentials.
Concentrated big scale attacks on enterprise servers and customer data by professional crackers (
Denial of Service Attacks) can be intercepted while still in preparational phase: the attack tools, so called
Trojan Horses, are identified and annihilated as soon as they are positioned. This prevents the misuse of systems for attacks on third parties, which is common practice nowadays, many times unnoticed.
Viruses and
Pests are caught faster and probably even more relyably by Waterfall than by virus or pest scanners. The reason is, that Waterfall needs no signature-update to become effective. New threads are detected and eliminated immediately and as relyably as previously known ones, as Waterfalls focusses on 'what should be there' rather than 'what should not be there'.
Mail servers and workstations can be protected against being turned into so called
Zombies, machines hijacked by illegal spammers and misused as illegal mail relay.
