Module description
The FireEye FX series is a group of threat prevention platforms that protect content against attacks originating in a wide range of file types. Web mail, online file transfer tools, the cloud, and portable file storage devices can introduce malware that can spread to file shares and content repositories. The FireEye FX platform analyzes network file shares and enterprise content management stores to detect and quarantine malware brought in by employees and others that bypass next-generation firewalls, IPS, AV, and gateways.
