Module description

Quoted from the NIST CMVP entry for this certificate.

The FireEye HX series appliances enable security operations teams to correlate network and endpoint activity. Organizations can automatically investigate alerts generated by FireEye Threat Prevention Platforms, log management, and network security products, apply intelligence from FireEye to continuously validate Indicators of Compromises on the endpoints and identify if a compromise has occurred and assess the potential risk.
