Virsec Security Platform (VSP) leverages the patented Trusted Execution™ technology to protect high-value enterprise applications deployed in data center or on public and hybrid clouds, from highly sophisticated attacks including memory corruption, code injection, credential theft, supply chain and other sophisticated attacks. VSP effectively creates and enforces guardrails around the application as it executes. These guardrails ensure that applications only perform as intended and restrain bad actors from corrupting memory as a precursor to hijacking control of the application and subsequent stealing or destroying high-value enterprise data.

-
HMM Incident Throttling – VSP-Host now has a throttling mechanism to prevent flooding of incidents to CMS. The throttling works at two levels:
-
Generic incidents have a maximum number of incidents for a time interval
-
ACPs have a separate mechanism that limit the number of incidents per application and per ACP
-

Description |
Known Issue/ Caveat |
Host Monitoring |
||
Windows library issue |
In Windows, VSP host monitoring does not suspend already running processes that have non-whitelisted libraries loaded into it |
Known Issue |
Linux HMM agent limitation |
In Linux, VSP host monitoring injects its own HMM agent into every running process. The HMM agent expects a specific version of glibc. If the application loads its own custom glibc version that is not compatible with the HMM agent, the HMM agent may not load correctly causing some application issues |
Limitation |
Windows application execution inconsistency |
In Windows, an application can be started with or without its .exe extension. Since VSP host monitoring analyzes the commandline as is, running python.exe vs python may result in different detections |
