Clavister Selects Webroot BrightCloud® IP Reputation Service

Webroot Provides Clavister Customers a Real-Time Solution to Detect and Block Malicious Incoming IPs

BROOMFIELD, Colo. - May 18, 2017

Clavister, a leader in the network security market, selected Webroot, the market leader in next-generation endpoint security, network security, and threat intelligence, to provide IP reputation services. Clavister will complement its range of virtual and appliance-based security services with the Webroot BrightCloud® IP Reputation Service. The solution uncovers malicious incoming IP addresses within users’ IT infrastructure and delivers actionable threat intelligence.

Key Facts:

  • According to the 2017 Webroot Threat Report, more than 100,000 IP addresses are reclassified from benign to malicious every day—reinforcing the importance of real-time IP threat intelligence to detect, alert on, and block malicious IPs.
  • The BrightCloud IP Reputation Service contains a dynamic list of approximately 8 to 12 million malicious IPs at any given time.
  • The integration enables enterprises to correlate their network traffic with accurate, real-time IP reputation data within their Clavister NGFW environment.
  • The BrightCloud IP Reputation Service can alert Clavister customers of suspicious activities as they happen and provide detailed, contextual information on each malicious IP so incident response teams can investigate threats before they lead to costly data theft.

Key Quotes:

Mattias Nordlund, Product Manager, Enterprise, Clavister

“We’re excited by the opportunity to offer one of the world’s best IP reputation services to our customers. The addition of the next-generation threat intelligence provided by Webroot provides yet another layer of defense against cyberattacks, enhancing both scalability and security.”

Chad Bacher, Senior Vice President, Product Strategy and Technology Alliances, Webroot

“In an attempt to bypass security defenses, attackers change hosts and IP addresses multiple times a day. As a result, enterprises struggle to determine which IP addresses are active threats to their organization. Enterprises using Clavister NGFW powered by the BrightCloud IP Reputation Service can augment their existing security response solution to quickly identify and block potentially dangerous IP traffic, minimizing the opportunity for attackers.”
