This approach combines several layers of protection that instantaneously prevent known and unknown malware from infecting your systems, whether they are online or offline, on-premise or off, connected to your organization’s network or not (Figure 1). Traps prevents malicious executables by maximizing coverage against malware while simultaneously reducing the attack surface and increasing the accuracy of malware detection. New and Improved Multi-Method Malware Prevention Automate breach prevention by virtue of the autonomous reprogramming of Traps using threat intelligence gained from Palo Alto Networks WildFire threat intelligence service.


Traps replaces traditional antivirus with a proprietary combination of purpose-built malware and exploit prevention methods that protect users and endpoints from both known and unknown threats. For a deeper dive, I encourage you to learn more about Traps, its new and updated capabilities, and how it replaces traditional antivirus with true prevention, by downloading the “Protect Yourself From Antivirus” white paper, or by joining our webinar to see Traps in action. In this post, I’ll go over some of the enhancements we’ve made to Traps. Today, we’re announcing enhancements to Traps advanced endpoint protection that empower you to replace your AV with real breach prevention. AV is no longer effective at stopping today’s cyberthreats and to prevent security breaches in your organization, you must protect yourself not only from known and unknown cyberthreats but also from the failures of any traditional AV solutions deployed in your environment. Traditional antivirus (AV) is not the solution to endpoint security – it is the problem.
