Blue Coat unveils 2011 Web Security Report
Blue Coat Systems has unveiled the 2011 Blue Coat Web Security Report that examines Web behavior and the malware to which users are most frequently exposed. The report analyzes Web requests from the Blue Coat WebPulse service, which weekly rates nearly three billion requests in real-time, to provide a comprehensive overview of the changing ways in which people are using the Internet and the new methods cybercrime is using to target their attacks.
"Today, dynamic Web links are the most powerful tool cybercrime has, and static Web ratings that require update cycles are too slow when the bad guys can harvest users within minutes," said Steve Daheb, chief marketing officer and senior vice president at Blue Coat Systems. "Only a real-time defense, like the Blue Coat WebPulse service, that can dynamically rate content and follow multi-staged malware attacks from beginning to end will be able to protect users."
This report utilizes information from the Blue Coat WebPulse service and the Blue Coat Security Lab. The WebPulse service receives real-time Web requests from more than 70 million diverse users worldwide and analyzes new, unknown or evolving Web content in real time, immediately sharing the intelligence with the entire community. The WebPulse service utilizes advanced technologies that help the Blue Coat Security Lab map the Web ecosystem and follow multi-staged attacks from beginning to end. This ability allows Blue Coat to more fully visualize new attacks and understand how cyber crime is changing its tactics.
