Network Box Z-Scan anti-malware system has won the 2012 Global Excellence Awards in the Security Products and Solutions for Finance and Banking category.  Network Box's multi-award-winning Z-Scan reacts to zero-day malware up to 4,200 times faster than traditional anti-malware systems. It operates by continually analyzing all threat information obtained in real time (gleaned from a very large number of traps distributed globally in the cloud) against an impressive platform of more than eight million signatures. The Z-Scan network includes spam traps, virus traps, in-house as well as customer submissions, email and http statistics, and suspect samples.  Rather than creating a signature -- which can take anywhere from three hours to an entire day to produce -- Network Box adopts a revolutionary approach by fingerprinting malware in real time. This is then instantly distributed to its 12 security operation centers globally in under three seconds. In that brief moment, all Network Box unified threat management (UTM) devices are able to identify the code as a threat. Key to the process is the fact that Network Box manages all client UTM devices and receives immediate feedback from them.
