This is partly due to the providers of virus scanners always requiring a certain amount of time to update their signatures after new malware has been brought into circulation. Until the signatures have been altered the malware goes unrecognized and is delivered unawares. One could, of course, first test each and every attachment for potentially malicious nature in a totally isolated environment, also known as sandboxing. This involves opening the file (in an automated process) within a virtual machine and checking if it behaves suspiciously. Well-designed malware is, however, able to recognize that it is currently only being tested and then behave inconspicuously &#8211; similar to the software written to control&nbsp;numerous automakers&#8217; diesel engines. In any case, sandboxing requires a great deal of expensive infrastructure and leads to delays in the delivery of emails. That\u2019s why Retarus has thought up an entirely new approach to the problem. This much we&nbsp;we are already revealing&nbsp; &#8211; we are able to use this new approach to retrospectively identify emails which were originally delivered containing an attachment infected with a virus &#8211; and then immediately alert the responsible administrator or optionally also the recipient. With a little luck the harmful attachment will not even have been opened yet and can simply be deleted without delay. Nevertheless, the forensic processes and curbing of potential damage is simplified dramatically &#8211; adding an enormous amount of value not only to e-mail security, but also to overall IT Security. This approach has been given the in-house <a href=\"https:\/\/www.retarus.com\/blog\/es\/do-you-still-remember-dustin-hoffman-and-patsy-the-monkey\/\">code name \u201cPatient Zero Detection<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u201d<\/a> and is already undergoing a test run at selected customers and at Retarus itself. Our Chief Scientist has moreover come up with another cool innovation &#8211; a \u201cheat map\u201d which allows the appearance of a sudden accumulation of the same or similar email subject lines, representing a potential wave of attacks, to be visualized clearly and recognized more easily. We are already working on other exciting ideas for the future development of \u201cPatient Zero Detection<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>\u201d. But let\u2019s not get ahead of ourselves. We\u2019ll be back with more on this topic soon&nbsp;enough.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We are able to retrospectively identify emails which were originally delivered containing an attachment infected with a Virus &#8211; adding an enormous amount of value not only to e-mail security, but also to overall IT Security.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":1741,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[9,15],"tags":[102,354],"dipi_cpt_category":[],"class_list":["post-1786","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-product-news","category-security","tag-email-security","tag-patient-zero-detection"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v23.9 (Yoast SEO v23.9) -
