  • Four months after announcing they plan to offer a threat intelligence service relying on data from both companies, FireEye (FEYE +1%) and Visa (V) have unveiled Visa Threat Intelligence, a subscription-based service delivering real-time threat info to merchants and card issuers.
  • The service features a Web portal where threat intelligence, alerts, and forensic analysis can be accessed, and gives more advanced users APIs for feeding threat data into their own systems. A premium service (using FireEye's MVX engine for safely executing malicious code) will analyze malware to find suspicious activity from IP addresses/domains.
  • The announcement shortly follows the launch of a next-gen MVX engine for FireEye's NX Series threat-prevention appliances. FireEye promises a 3x increase in overall analysis speed thanks to faster algorithms, a 5x increase in the ability to detect attacks early on, and improved mobile threat-prevention. MVX has long been viewed as a differentiator for FireEye.
  • Also launching: Appliances pairing SSL decryption with load balancing (up to 10Gbps of throughput), an update to FireEye's HX endpoint-protection software line (stems from the Mandiant acquisition) providing better endpoint visibility and access to real-time threat data, and a Threat Intelligence Engine (powers FireEye services) said to optimize the process of "capturing, processing, analyzing and delivering intelligence to FireEye customers and analysts."
