What Are Web Threats?
Web threats are any threat that uses the Internet to perform malicious activities. They arrive, spread, deliver additional exploits and entrench themselves via the Internet and may include Trojan horse programs, spyware, adware, pharming and other malware. They also may be triggered by a hyperlink or an executable file attachment in a spam email.
Why Should I Care About Web Threats?
Web threats are more pervasive today and the fastest growing threat vector. These evolving and carefully targeted threats are technologically sophisticated, comprised of multiple components, and spawn numerous variants. Because they often require no user intervention at all to infect a computer, the very act of browsing may put your users at risk. Web threats can enter your network in real time, posing immediate danger to your company’s data, productivity, reputation, and revenue.
How Should I Protect Against Web Threats?
Today’s URL filtering and content inspection solutions are reactive, protect against known threats, and require static updates. They are not adequately equipped to address a threat landscape that is constantly evolving to evade detection. To combat today’s Web threats, you need a new solution—one that is dynamic, provides continuous updates, and is able to work in combination with URL filtering.
