Advanced Threat Prevention

Stop zero-day threats with Precision AI

Inline intrusion prevention powered by machine learning and deep learning models detects and blocks exploits, malware, and command-and-control attacks before they reach target systems.

Request Information

Real-time threat prevention at every attack stage

Advanced Threat Prevention provides intrusion prevention, malware protection, and command-and-control blocking through inline inspection that analyzes traffic across all ports and protocols.

Inline deep learning models

Purpose-built models analyze traffic inline to detect unknown exploits and command-and-control attacks without requiring signature updates.

Single-pass architecture

Unified signature format inspects traffic once for all threat types rather than requiring multiple scanning engines.

Context-aware inspection

Application and user context enables threat detection across all ports regardless of evasion techniques.

Precision AI threat detection

Machine learning, deep learning, and generative AI models analyze threat data from global deployments to identify and block evolving attack patterns.

Machine learning

Recognizes patterns in structured datasets to analyze and block malicious threats at scale.

Deep learning

Automates feature learning to handle unstructured data and identify abstract attack patterns.

Generative AI

Models train on AI-generated threats to identify and block emerging attack techniques.

Comprehensive Coverage

Comprehensive coverage of zero-day attacks

Inline deep learning models block unknown command-and-control attacks and exploit attempts without requiring signature updates.

Advanced Threat Prevention protects networks during each phase of an attack with multiple layers of prevention powered by machine learning and deep learning models.

  • Intrusion prevention: Block exploits and vulnerability attempts inline
  • Malware protection: Detect and prevent known and unknown malware
  • Command-and-control blocking: Disrupt C2 communication channels
  • Complete visibility: Inspect traffic across all ports and protocols

Cobalt Strike prevention

Advanced Threat Prevention delivers 5X more prevention against Cobalt Strike command-and-control than any other vendor.

Protection capabilities

Advanced Threat Prevention provides multiple layers of protection during each phase of an attack.

Network intrusion prevention

Protocol decoder-based analysis detects and blocks exploit attempts at network and application layers.

  • Vulnerability-based signatures protect against multiple exploit variants
  • Protocol anomaly detection identifies non-RFC-compliant usage
  • Stateful pattern matching detects multi-packet attacks
  • Custom signatures tailor protection to specific environments

Malware prevention

Stream-based scanning blocks malware before reaching target systems without introducing latency.

  • Inline detection of malware in compressed files and web content
  • Protection against payloads in common file types
  • Payload-based signatures block malware variants
  • WildFire integration provides zero-day protection

Command-and-control protection

Automated pattern-based signatures block unauthorized communication channels between infected systems and attackers.

  • Block outbound requests to malicious domains
  • Detect known C2 toolkits on infected devices
  • DNS sinkhole redirects malicious requests
  • Researcher-grade signatures at machine scale

Attack surface reduction

Additional capabilities reduce exposure to threats before they reach critical systems.

  • SSL decryption inspects encrypted traffic for threats
  • File blocking prevents dangerous file types
  • Drive-by download protection warns users
  • Correlation objects identify infected devices

Best-in-class intrusion prevention
