Advanced Malware Protection

At Performance Networks, our Advanced Malware Protection (AMP) solution is designed to address businesses’ growing challenges in combating sophisticated cyber threats. Traditional antivirus solutions can often struggle to keep up with the rapidly advancing malware landscape, leaving networks vulnerable to advanced attacks such as targeted attacks and ransomware.

These threats can lead to significant data breaches, operational disruptions, and financial losses, making it crucial for businesses to have a robust defence system. We use the latest technologies to detect and block even the most elusive malware threats.

Our advanced malware protection provides real-time threat detection and prevention, safeguarding your network from known and unknown threats and ensuring your business operations remain uninterrupted. With Performance Networks, you gain a robust layer of security that adapts to the ever-changing threat landscape, giving you peace of mind that your data and systems are protected.

What is Advanced Malware Protection?

In contrast to traditional malware protection, advanced malware protection employs a multi-layered strategy that uses artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), and behavioural detection. Behavioural detection involves analysing an entity’s actions to predict whether it poses a threat. Additionally, advanced malware protection solutions use whitelisting (allowlisting), which permits only pre-approved entry, and blocklisting, which identifies and blocks potential threats. This combination of techniques enhances the ability to detect and prevent sophisticated attacks. If you are worried about the risk of malware to your business, contact our team. We are experts in network security and will talk you through the best options to protect your network and business from potential attacks and how AMP works alongside other network security tools such as firewalls and ISPs to bolster your network.

How Does Advanced Malware Protection Work?

Advanced malware protection relies on a multi-layered defence strategy, greatly enhancing a system’s ability to prevent malware attacks. Implementing several layers of security ensures that even if malware bypasses one layer, subsequent layers have a higher chance of detecting and neutralising the threat. Here’s how it works:

Allowlist

The initial layer of protection involves an allowlist, where only pre-approved files are permitted to run. A file on this list is considered safe and poses no threat to the system.

Blocklist

The next layer involves a blocklist. If a file is identified as malware, it is added to this list, ensuring that the system automatically blocks any future attempts by that specific malware to infect the system.

AI, ML, and Behavioural Detection

If malware manages to bypass both the allowlist and blocklist, advanced malware protection then deploys (AI), (ML), and behavioural detection. Unlike traditional methods, behavioural detection doesn’t just analyse the code; it scrutinises the file’s actions, such as modifying Windows registry keys, creating new files, generating processes, scanning the network, or attempting to connect to external systems.

Continuous AI and ML Model Enhancement

Advanced malware protection also uses AI and ML models that are constantly trained and updated with new data. These models enable the system to make real-time intelligent decisions, adapting to emerging threats. Human oversight ensures that these models remain effective, reducing the risk of false positives and ensuring protection remains current with the latest threats.

This comprehensive, multi-layered approach ensures that advanced malware protection can effectively identify, block, and neutralise even the most sophisticated threats, providing robust security for your systems.

What Our Customers Are Saying

"We were grateful that Performance Networks pulled out all the stops to deliver a project within a very tight timescale and to budget. From the planning to the implementation, the Performance Network team worked closely with the BISC IT team, ensuring what was provided best suited the BISC’s needs. And even when things did not go to plan, the Performance Networks team adapted quickly to the new situation and came up with alternative approaches which delivered the same objectives to the same cost. The rural location and older buildings with their associated infrastructure make any BISC IT project a challenge, but Performance Networks overcame every obstacle without hesitation, delivered as promised and followed up with post-implementation support which was unfailing. We would happily turn to Performance Networks again for future projects."

Sarah Butler – Librarian and Head of Learning, BISC

"From the first point of contact Performance Networks have been amazing. They are extremely knowledgeable when it comes to networks and WiFi and are able to turn a complex topic into something simple and easy to understand. I can’t recommend them enough to anyone who needs a new network or is experiencing performance or connectivity issues with their existing network."

Steven Bennett, Head of IT, Manchester Central

"Performance Networks’ knowledge and expertise on WiFi solutions were invaluable to us during this huge and complex upscale project, and we are delighted with the work they have completed over the last few months.” “We’re really pleased to have completed this project, which is quite an undertaking and brings the technical infrastructure of our 19th century Palace very much up to speed with modern-day requirements."

Nick Johnson, IT Manager, Alexandra Palace

"Performance Networks resolved a complex ongoing WiFi issue in one visit; they are fast to respond and highly professional. We have since engaged them for further WiFi consultancy and thoroughly recommend their services."

David Jackson, DHL

"WiFi is now only an issue if it’s not available – and these occasions have been very few and far between. Access Points are remotely monitored so that Performance Networks can inform management if there is a problem even before they’re aware. Guests have a support line to call in case of difficulty. Performance Networks has helped Ragdale Hall to update its infrastructure to meet the requirements of the business, which is more and more reliant on technology. Guests and suppliers want instant communication, they need banks to provide immediate authorisations. All of this depends upon a stable platform, with excellent response when issues arise. As with WiFi, Ragdale Hall’s staff are only concerned when the technology gets in the way of providing outstanding customer service. Performance Networks have provided that stability and have been pro-active in ensuring that Ragdale Hall maintains and improves its systems."

Keith Palmer, IT Systems manager Ragdale Hall

"I have worked with several WiFi providers over 15 years at CCT, and Performance Networks are the only one who have truly understood the needs of our organisation. With three large conference centres that experience high guest footfall, our WiFi requirements are significant. Performance Networks have delivered a solution that meets our needs fully. I’ve been really impressed with their service after the installation too. They monitor our entire network and their support is second-to-none, proactively identifying and resolving issues before we’re even aware of them! I’m confident to say that our WiFi is sector-leading, which has a huge impact on guest experience."
