Philipp Waechter, branch manager of onSpirix Middle East demonstrated through an simulated worm attack the strength of solutions of its innovative technology partner in public at GITEX 2005 for the first time.

ForeScout offers with its product CounterAct the industry's most trusted solution for the real time protection of self-propagating worms. Its patented ActiveResponse™ technology module employs a unique methodology that detects and protects networks from the first moment of the ever growing threat by worms e.g.. This is accomplished without human interaction or any form of file update.

On August 9, 2005, Microsoft issued the MS05-039 security bulletin, which describes a Windows vulnerability categorized by Microsoft as 'Critical'. Within days a worm called Zotob were propagating in enterprise networks.

ForeScout's patented Active Response technology (CounterACT) engaged the Zobot infected machines and stopped the spread of the worm. No updates or other human intervention was required for ForeScout's installed customer base to have real-time protection against this new worm.

'Since the first breakout of the worm ForeScout's customers have been depended on Active Response to block these threats from infecting their networks, and have not been disappointed.' said T. Kent Elliott, CEO of ForeScout Technologies.

'CounterACT 5.0's new capabilities add a significant security layer that improves enterprise network protection and ensures business continuity,' said Philipp Waechter, branch manager of onSpirix Middle East. onSpirix represents ForeScout Technologies exclusively in the Middle East.
