A system and method to detect and contain threatening executable code by employing a threat monitor, verifier, endpoint agent, and a security information and event management module. The system and method determine whether a threat has persisted or executed, and allow that information to be communicated back to the detection mechanism (or other system) such that a user (or machine) may make a decision to take further action such as to contain the threat quickly and/or permit the system to do so automatically. The system further generates a report by a threat monitor, the report includes information on the one or more threats resulting from the analyzing of the portion of the network data; analyzing the information within the report by a verifier to yield intelligence that includes at least one of instructions or indicators related to the identified one or more threats and determining, gathering and correlating verification information from the endpoint agent to determine whether the verification information corresponds to a verified threat, the verification information includes at least a portion of the results of the examination and an identifier for the endpoint device; and sending a notification including a portion of the verification information to identify the verified threat.
A computerized method to identify potentially malicious code at an endpoint device in a network, the method comprising:
A system operable to identify potentially malicious code on an endpoint device in a network, the system comprising:
