Mocana's NanoDefender

Mocana — April 2010

Mocana\'s NanoDefender

Mocana's patent-pending new anti-malware product, NanoDefender, is a device-based application and firmware defense system that is designed to instantly detect and shut down malware or viruses before they have a chance to spreadand it does so while eliminating false positives

  • NanoDefender is the latest addition to the Device Security Framework, Mocana's top-to-bottom architecture for planning, implementing and managing comprehensive device security across the enterprise
  • The Mocana NanoDefender Difference: NanoDefender starts your device out on the right foot, by providing all the tools and firmware source you need to perform secure pre-boot verifications on your connected device
  • The solution uses strong cryptography to validate the BIOS, firmware, and boot loader images
  • Once the device is up and running, NanoDefender approaches host-based intrusion detection in a completely different way
  • Unlike anti-malware products currently on the market that rely on attack databases for defense, NanoDefender tracks the function flow within the application
  • Designed to prevent malicious code execution in the context of an existing application or process, NanoDefender is focused on recognizing previously unknown attacks, especially on handheld and wireless devices
  • It isn't an add-on
  • It's designed to be integrated into the device or application during the manufacturing process to prevent damage from attacks, known or unknown
