End Point Technologies End-Point Challenges EPP Efficacy Threats are breaking thru EPP at an increasing rate Rise in threats discovered by users or post infection scans Hardware and Human resource cost Increased “Time Exposed to Danger” (TED) as advanced threats avoid detection and cleanup Signature models create unnecessary problems Mutual EPP Exclusivity As EPP products attempt to “punch above their weight” they are operating at the limits of their design parameters. As a result very few EPP products will co-exist denying customers the opportunity to improve protection by doubling up. Vendor Research Capacity Vendors no longer “have eyes” for low volume threats allowing high risk targetedattacks to go undetected Poor/Non Existent EPP Security Intelligence EPP designed as a protection layer with little or no surveillance capabilities Lack of Intelligence makes Security Breach Detection and Management time consuming and unreliable and makes auditing all but impossible
End Point Technologies Meeting the Challenges EPP Efficacy Inverted signature model, EPP client calculates ALL object signatures and feeds them to the center Powerful generic detection and cleanup leveraging centralized intelligence Rapid un-intrusive scanning technology covering all forms of malware including rootkits Small footprint with low technology and human resource overheads Reduce “Time Exposed to Danger” (TED) Mutual EPP Exclusivity Widest possible interoperability, by design Vendor Research Capacity Automation and linear scalability, by design – Prevx currently process 250,000 new objects /day Poor Security Intelligence Monitor all software then decide what is benign, what is malicious and what is worthy of closer attention. Don’t just look for known threats based on signatures or known behavior patterns. Ease of use and simplicity and speed of installation, deployment and management One light weight agent with multiple uses –Incremental Detection/Remediation/Protection/SNAC Choice of in-house or web based agent management or hybrid
End Point Technologies The Opportunities Awareness and Information Knowing what software exists, where , and for how long Software NAC Simple, fast, flexible EPP agent based System, Network or Application Access Control Extend EPP NAC to include casual visitors, even web connected clients Security Breach Management Install, scan and check 1,000 PCs for malware (including rootkits) in less than one hour Customer Security Management Enable e-commence applications to query the security state of any web connected client Force on-demand system scan Force cleanup before access Monitor , verify and block poisoned DNS resolution Force user into “more secure” browser environment Enforce or monitor PC usage and authentication
End Point Technologies CSI / Edge System Impact Edge: All components combined, produces only an 11MB RAM footprint. CSI: Virtually no overhead when idle and shrinks to a 6MB RAM footprint. Consistently low / transparent CPU usage: After 1 hour of heavy system use, Edge required only 24 seconds of kernel + user CPU time for realtime scanning. Both products require less than 10 MB of available disk space and will run on computers with less than 64MB of physical RAM.
End Point Technologies PassMark™ System Performance Comparison Without Edge: With Edge: Edge impacted system performance by only 0.34% percent across a wide range of CPU, disk, and graphics benchmarks.

End Point Technologies Scan Speed • Although CSI scans extremely quickly, its rootkit scan and system analysis is as thorough as possible. It achieves this speed with some technical breakthroughs: • The ability to duplicate the master file table (MFT) in memory and analyze files in an optimized sequence • The ability to search through the system for duplicate/specific files in less than 1/100,000th of the time a standard search takes (0.01 seconds versus 20 minutes) • The ability to analyze the system registry as a whole by reading it raw from the system and reorganizing it into a more optimized database format for on-demand analysis • The ability to intelligently read the disk at a raw level, completely circumventing the Windows API, subsystem, and kernel • The ability to use centralized, server-side resources to analyze behavior quickly and without requiring user resources
End Point Technologies System Scan Time Tests were conducted on the same Windows XP system with common software installing including the Microsoft Office Suite and Photoshop CS3.
End Point Technologies Bootup Time Impact Tests were conducted on the same system and the resulting delay is the average of 5 reboots with the security product installed minus the average without any security product.

End Point Technologies Rootkit Detection • Rootkit scanning and low-level system analysis is the reason for the fast scan speed • Uses a cross-section approach on raw disk structures, registry, and memory structures • Reports all findings centrally to the database to ignore legitimate system modifications done by security products, etc. to prevent user confusion: Standard Flow of a File Read Request fread() > ReadFile > NtReadFile > KiFastSystemCall > SSDT > ZwReadFile > [Minifilter driver stack] > [Legacy file system filter driver stack] > ntfs.sys > PhysicalDiskn device > Disk.sys > classpnp.sys > scsi.sys > HAL > BIOS Flow of a CSI read request CSIRawReadFile() > scsi.sys > HAL > BIOS
End Point Technologies Rootkit Remediation • CSI removes rootkits by restructuring system components without the rootkits present before shutdown rather than falling into a race condition on bootup as other products do • This provides stable rootkit removal which can remove any rootkit from the MBR rootkit to Rustock to TDSServ generically without having to write specific routines for each • Spyware/usermode threat remediation isolates the threats from the rest of the system by closing or suspending open connections which the threats have and then forcing them to be removed, either from usermode or with the raw disk access modules
End Point Technologies Rootkit Scan Comparison The popular antirootkit programs GMER and Rootkit Unhooker both analyze the disk at a raw level like CSI to detect some of the threats which CSI can detect, however, they do so in a much less optimized manner. These tests were performed on the same system with two rootkits active and an active usermode spyware infection. All three products detected the rootkits, but as CSI’s scan contains not only a rootkit scan, it also identified the active spyware infection which the other products missed.
