A platform that detects, analyzes, and blocks malware using association analysis and machine learning.

Maestro Networks announced the launch of 'Maestro Cyber Threat Intelligence Platforms' (hereinafter 'Maestro'), an intelligent security intelligence platform that automatically analyzes, verifies, and blocks malicious files entering a corporate network, and stated that it is embarking on full-scale business operations.

Maestro is an integrated intelligent security intelligence platform capable of detecting, analyzing, and blocking malware by utilizing not only the analysis of files, IPs, domains, URLs, and emails entering the enterprise, but also correlation analysis and machine learning. It is specialized to integrate with various in-house endpoint, network, email, and web security solutions to rapidly identify threats—such as the latest ransomware, Advanced Persistent Threat (APT) attack codes, and malware—and execute corresponding countermeasures.

Maestro interoperates with various security solutions, such as network security systems, email security gateways, web accelerators/web proxies, endpoint security systems, WEB/WAS/DB/file servers/storage, and network segmentation/network interconnection systems. By configuring these diverse solutions into a single integrated platform, it can eliminate threat blind spots that existed when numerous security solutions were not organically integrated and operated within a company. Maestro supports interoperability with network and endpoint security solutions such as Symantec (including Blue Coat), Cisco, AhnLab, F5 Networks, Carbon Black, FireEye, and Palo Alto Networks during the file inflow stage, and with Opswat MetaDefender, Joe Security, and DomainTools during the file verification stage.

Furthermore, Maestro can enhance system operational efficiency by automatically detecting and blocking malware in files entering corporate internal network systems, thereby eliminating the need for manual threat analysis and verification. Based on an integrated management interface, Maestro displays the status of corporate network security solution integrations via a visual solution map and provides an integrated dashboard and reports that allow for a comprehensive overview of threat analysis results and status, such as malicious files entering the company.

Kim Young-eun, CEO of Maestro Networks, stated, “To prevent and respond to increasingly sophisticated cyber attacks, it is essential to identify the characteristics and techniques of attackers in advance. A cyber security threat intelligence platform is required to obtain this information beforehand.” He added, “While companies have already deployed and are using numerous security products, they operate independently, failing to properly secure intelligence on incoming security threats, which only increases complexity and management burdens. Maestro is an intelligence security platform that centrally connects various security solutions to automatically identify security threats at the stage of entry into the corporate premises, enabling rapid preemptive response.”
