Security threats have become more sophisticated and more widespread, creating a challenge for traditional signature-based security solutions. Last year, attackers unleashed more than 286 million distinct malicious programmes, an average of more than nine new threats every second of every day. In fact, Symantec's Internet Security Threat Report XV revealed that India ranked fifth for malicious activities globally in the reporting period, up from eleventh the previous year.
This explosion in malware scope and complexity is due in large part to the proliferation of easy-to-use attack toolkits, such as Zeus, which lower the barrier of entry in cybercrime. These toolkits enable hackers to continuously generate new mutated malware variants, each targeting a different victim, making traditional discovery and fingerprinting of these threats nearly impossible. According to Symantec's Attack Toolkits and Malicious Websites Report, at least 61 per cent of threat activity can be attributed to attack toolkits. As these toolkits grow in popularity, the trend towards millions of narrowly distributed, high impact threats will continue. Symantec Endpoint Protection 12 leverages Insight to provide unmatched protection against this new threat landscape.According to Symantec's Attack Toolkits and Malicious Websites Report, at least 61 per cent of threat activity can be attributed to attack toolkits.
