Trend Micro Command & Control (C&C)
Contact Alert Services provides IMSS with enhanced detection and
alert capabilities to mitigate the damage caused by advanced persistent
threats and targeted attacks. It leverages the Global Intelligence
list compiled, tested, and rated by the Trend Micro Smart Protection
Network to detect callback addresses.
With C&C Contact Alert Services, IMSS has the ability to
inspect the sender, recipients and reply-to addresses in a message's
header, as well as URLs in the message body, to see if any of them
matches known C&C objects. Administrators can configure IMSS
to quarantine such messages and send a notification when a message
is flagged. IMSS logs all detected email with C&C objects and the
action taken on these messages. IMSS sends these logs to Control Manager
for query purposes.
