MANDIANT Launches Threat Identification Program(TM)

Consulting and Technology Combine to Identify Malicious Activity
and Advanced Persistent Threats
ALEXANDRIA, Va.--(Business Wire)--
MANDIANT, an elite provider of information security consulting
services and solutions, introduced their Threat Identification
Program(TM) (TIP) today. TIP combines the Company's professional
services with its recently-launched MANDIANT Intelligent Response(TM)
technology to seek out malicious activity and advanced persistent
threats throughout an enterprise's network.

MANDIANT responds to computer security incidents on a consistent
basis, witnessing the rapid proliferation of compromise throughout
client networks and recognizing trends in the types and sources of
threats targeting those systems. Organizations dealing with persistent
threats require enhanced capabilities to effectively identify, scope
and remediate these threats within their enterprise.

MANDIANT's Threat Identification Program is targeted for security
professionals and incident responders in government agencies, the
Defense Industrial Base and the commercial sector. Through network
monitoring, host-based monitoring and signature detection, TIP is
successful in identifying malicious activity that hides in routine
network traffic or that lies dormant until it is required to maintain
access to the network. MANDIANT Intelligent Response technology is
leveraged in TIP to review thousands of systems in an expedited
manner, looking for specific indicators of compromise or to
investigate anomalous network activity from a host. Clients are able
to conduct static and dynamic analysis of hostile programs and rapidly
deploy signatures to identify or respond to potential incidents.

By implementing TIP, organizations will know if they have a
persistent threat and will not have to spend significant amounts of
time conducting tactical remediation prior to understanding the extent
of the compromise. "We have combined our professional service
experience with our MIR technology to develop advanced tactical
countermeasures to mitigate persistent threats," said Kevin Mandia,
President & CEO of MANDIANT.
