Malwarebytes enhances ThreatDown Solutions to cut complexity and boost performance for channel partners

Malwarebytes has released new features for its ThreatDown product portfolio that further streamline cybersecurity for channel partners. As the corporate product portfolio of Malwarebytes, ThreatDown solutions are purpose-built to overpower threats, while empowering IT, through easy-to-use, effective technologies. New features include expanded DNS filtering capabilities, enhancements to the ThreatDown Admin app, and a new Patch History report.

ThreatDown solutions tackle today’s foremost challenge of IT and security teams today – complexity. A recent survey revealed that most IT staff lose an average of one day a week to unnecessary complexity. The majority (64%) report that the harder a security solution is to use, the less likely it is to be effective and 89% cite ease-of-use as a significant consideration when buying security software.

New features and functionality added to the ThreatDown product portfolio take aim at complexity so that partners and their customers can spend more time growing their business while maximising security.

Updates include:

 Security Advisor Supercharged with AI: Malwarebytes is redefining cybersecurity management with its latest AI-powered chat feature for ThreatDown Security Advisor. Users can interact in natural language to quickly identify vulnerabilities, update security measures, and optimise their defense systems without navigating through complex menus.

• Enhanced EDR Flight Recorder Features Simplify Search: New fields on the Flight Recorder Search (parent process name, parent process path, and file written) enable ThreatDown EDR power users to search on threats in their environment with more granularity; enabling them to perform more efficient and deeper investigations of threats.

• Expanded DNS Filtering Capabilities Streamline Blocking: Users can create rules to block top-level domains and block/allow specific IP addresses that are known to be malicious, do not meet compliance standards, or are associated with high-risk geopolitical areas.
• ThreatDown Admin App Unifies Notifications: Notifications are now available on the ThreatDown Admin app for all Nebula customers. This latest release adds a highly requested feature, allowing customers to be notified of any critical incidents from their mobile devices.
• New Patch History Report Bubbles Up Cybersecurity Gaps: Unpatched devices continue to be an active entry point for attackers. A new report gives visibility into what OS patches were applied, their status, and some additional information to help users understand cybersecurity gaps.
• Quarantine for MSP Reduces One-Off Tactics: The site selector in the Quarantine page of the multi-tenant console OneView is being removed so that customers can view quarantine events across all sites at once, instead of selecting one site at a time.
