WWW as a major source of computer security risks

Today, when Internet became the primary channel of information and entertainment, propagation of malicious software is very simple and in general based on the exploitation of security vulnerabilities which are frequently discovered in modern web browsers and media viewers. According to Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures database, only in 2010 there were discovered 114 security vulnerabilities in Mozilla Firefox, 172 security vulnerabilities in Google Chrome, 49 vulnerabilities in Opera and 68 in Microsoft Internet Explorer (5,6,7,8).

More about information security

How can existing information security solutions adopt Quttera engine?

There is no doubt that a web-based malware is an emerging security threat for websites and web users. The dynamic content has increased the delivery of sophisticated web threats that evade detection by traditional security technologies. Hackers insensibly hack websites by exploiting security weaknesses of hosted web applications, gain access to the hacked Web site and install malware files that further spread to mobile devices and desktop stations.

To improve existing identification capabilities, we have developed a heuristic malicious content detection engine which is capable of recognizing and protecting from various kinds of web threats. Our malicious content detection engine comprises multiple non-signature based investigation and analytic methods capable of identifying JavaScript based attacks, security vulnerability exploits, JavaScript obfuscation techniques and JavaScript packers which are used to hide malicious content from signature/pattern based identification engines.

Quttera investigation engine embeds number of homemade execution emulators which penetrate the analyzed code and detects web treats regardless of targeted web browser or operating system.

Current engine version is capable of recognizing and identifying:

  • Security vulnerability exploits referencing system internals(x86 architecture)
  • Security vulnerability exploits referencing process internals(x86 architecture)
  • Sensible sequences of CPU instructions inside text and binary files(x86 architecture)
  • Hidden JavaScript code generated during emulation of the original script or web page
  • Suspicious JavaScript containing code obfuscation or injection of hidden JavaScript
  • Hidden HTML elements generated during emulation of the original script or web page
  • PDF files containing embedded malicious PE files
  • PDF files containing hidden suspicious actions
  • PDF files containing hidden suspicious elements
  • PDF files containing JavaScript code obfuscation
  • Malformed PDF files
  • Encrypted PDF files
Quttera is designed and implemented as a generic investigation engine, and it can be adopted and integrated into any information security software like::
  • Intrusion detection/prevention systems (IDS/IPS)
  • Antiviruses and malware detection tools
  • Malicious and suspicious web sites detection systems
  • Websites investigation systems
  • Security Internet suits
  • Application gateways
  • Mail servers
Quttera includes three main modules:
  • X86 emulator for emulation and detection of shellcodes and sensible malicious sequences of executable instructions
  • JavaScript emulator for emulation and detection of malicious JavaScript scripts and HTML pages
  • PDF reader emulator for detection of malicious PDF files.

Please contact us to verify how Quttera can reinforce your protection along with a solution you are, already, using.

Testimonials

I am extremely happy with your prompt and professional service. My client was on Google's blacklist for four months even though the malicious code on her small business site was removed immediately after the incident. We tried and tried to contact Google and were ignored. Your team responded promptly and had everything back up and running within a matter of days.

Sabra Vidali, www.textweaver.com

I just started using the service of Quttera and can say I am amazingly pleased with the results. I had 2 different websites that were thoroughly infected with malware. I tried testing for malware on other sites and none of them registered a problem. Only Google and Quttera could recognize the issue at hand. What happened next was an introduction to fair pricing along with excellent customer service team who cleaned my sites within a 24 hour period. Then they actually took it upon themselves to get one of the sites off Google's blacklist. I am up and running while at the same time being monitored to prevent future issues. Very cool.

Found malware on my site, janeco.ca, downloaded the Quttera plugin which gave me a breakdown of affected pages. Simply asked for the team at Quttera to look into it, they then proceeded to remove ALL Malware within a few hours of initial notification! All I can say is a BIG THANK YOU!
