Intrinsic Security (Missoula, MT) Adds SMS Alerting to Revolutionary AntiWorm Technology

Extending the capability of its antiworm system, Intrinsic Security http://www.intrinsicsecurity.com/ updated FireBreak AntiWorm today. The new release brings SMS text alert delivery to the appliance-based antiworm system. Based on its industry leading intrusion suppression technology, FireBreak AntiWorm is the first solution to bring pervasive antiworm defense technology to the modern enterprise network.

With this update, FireBreak AntiWorm alerts can be delivered via SMS text messages directly to cell phones and other SMS capable devices, in addition to other delivery methods. FireBreak can instantly alert network and security staff to worm outbreaks.

"Our customers asked for SMS alert delivery, so they can respond even more quickly to a worm outbreak," says company founder Gary W. Longsine. "Time is money when a worm can spread in minutes and cleanup costs are typically thousands of dollars per PC. FireBreak AntiWorm detects worm outbreaks instantly, so SMS is a natural delivery choice for urgent notification — it goes where you go."

FireBreak AntiWorm detects and actively impedes the spread of worms on a network, complimenting existing antivirus, firewall, and IDS/IPS systems from any vendor. The system automatically configures on most networks, and can be deployed without complex integration. The system is centrally managed and is compatible with Windows, UNIX, Linux, and other systems. FireBreak AntiWorm is compatible with all common network configurations, including those with DHCP managed network addresses and with ethernet or wireless LAN.

FireBreak AntiWorm provides protection against network aware worms without signatures or definitions — it even protects against Zero Day worms never studied in a lab. FireBreak Antiworm is the only system designed from the ground up to provide effective defense against the modern Zero Day worm or blended threat botnet. The system detects worm outbreaks instantly, impedes worm propagation, and now delivers alerts immediately via SMS.

Additional information about the FireBreak AntiWorm system is available from the Intrinsic Security web site at http://www.intrinsicsecurity.com/ . Intrinsic Security is the maker of FireBreak AntiWorm, the industry leading antiworm system based on secure and enterprise scalable honeypot technology. Intrinsic Security also provides related AntiWorm network security consulting services, including penetration testing to enterprises, banking, government, and educational institutions.
