DESCRIPTION:

Sensitive data leakage is an issue of utmost concern to corporate management. Data Leak Prevention (DLP) solution providers offer products with a wide range of functionality and capability. However, none of these products detect insider use of steganography.

Steganography applications are widely available on the Internet—as freeware, shareware, or as commercially licensed software. The threat from insider use of steganography is significant because the applications are easy to find, download, install, and use—many with the familiar “drag-and-drop” or “wizard” functionality available in nearly all popular software applications.

StegAlyzerRTS is the world’s first commercially available network security appliance capable of detecting digital steganography applications and their use in real-time.

StegAlyzerRTS detects insiders downloading steganography applications by comparing the file fingerprints, or hash values, to a database of known file, or artifact, hash values associated with more than 725 steganography applications.

StegAlyzerRTS also detects insiders using of steganography applications by scanning files entering and leaving the network for known signatures of over 55 steganography applications. Using an exclusive signature scanning approach developed in Backbone Security’s Steganography Analysis and Research Center (SARC), StegAlyzerRTS detects insider theft of sensitive information hidden inside other seemingly innocuous files and then sent to an external recipient as an e-mail attachment or posted on a publicly accessible web site.

Product highlights in StegAlyzerRTS:

• Detect fingerprints of 725 steganography applications
  
  
• Detect signatures of 55 steganography applications
  
  
• Send real-time alerts to network security administrators
  
  
• Retain copies of suspect files for further analysis
  
  
• Totally transparent to insiders

StegAlyzerRTS offers a “drop-in, turn-key” capability that will not affect network throughput.
