Threat protection, one of the four pillars that makes up Bitglass’s four quadrants, is integral for defense against malware. Bitglass’ CASB (cloud access security broker) can proactively defend against any threat, while other security tools have more of a reactive approach to malware detection and prevention. Oftentimes, months go by without organizations realizing that they have been infected with malware – rather than addressing the problem after the fact, it is best to prevent the attack in real time.
