Combating Key Threats: Memory Attacks
How BOUNCER Protects You Against Memory Attacks
Putting a Stop to Memory Exploits
Despite the prevalence and damaging nature of memory attacks, few security solutions can prevent them from exploiting your system. Whitelisting solutions must pay particular attention to these attacks. Memory attacks try to take advantage of legitimate applications and use their privileges to load malicious processes, circumventing the security checks that take place during application initiation. That's where we come in. Our award-winning whitelisting solutions are designed to help real people like you solve tough problems, including protecting you from malicious memory exploits and their payload. Our whitelisting solution doesn't simply restrict execution of unknown applications; we prevent memory attacks within legitimate applications too.
We Know How These Attacks Work
As one of the most insidious forms of malicious attacks, memory exploits can compromise your systems in many ways, including:
-
Providing delivery methods for worms and other malicious code
-
Taking advantage of buffer overflow vulnerabilities
-
Writing to kernel memory
-
Enabling hackers to inject a DLL library onto a system
How BOUNCER Can Help You
BOUNCER is designed to help you stop these attacks by not only preventing the execution of unauthorized applications but also by controlling the code running in memory. BOUNCER helps you:
-
Ensure that vulnerability-leveraging payload cannot execute
-
Prevent the execution of any process that is not launched by an approved application
-
Stop attempts to inject DLL libraries or write to kernel memory
-
Implement patches in a more deliberate and measured manner
-
Report all unauthorized application execution attempts
