2. ADVANCED THREAT PROTECTION SOLUTION
LIFECYCLE DEFENSE
The Blue Coat ATP solution delivers the
industry’s most comprehensive
protection through the following:
1) Lifecycle Defense: Protection that
maps to three threat stages: Realtime blocking for known threats and
malware sources (malnets);
Advanced threat analysis for
unknown threats; and Dwell time
reduction for latent threats
2) Adaptive Malware Analysis:
Dynamic APT protection that
analyzes unknown threats and
shares information with other
systems in the security infrastructure
to increase protection efficiency for
unknown and latent threats
3) Network Effect: APT information
sharing between 75M users in
15,000 organizations through a
feedback loop into the Blue Coat
Global Intelligence Network

3. WHY SANDBOXING?
DETECTING & ANALYZING UNKNOWN THREATS
 Traditional network
defenses are great at
dealing with known-threats,
terrible at dealing with
unknown-threats
 Unknown threats require
dynamic analysis (aka
detonation) in the form of a
virtual machine and/or
bare-metal or emulation
sandbox
 Tight integration is
necessary between the
sandbox and your web
gateway
