Overview

Effective cybersecurity requires intelligence: Valkyrie is an online file verdict system that tests unknown files with a range of static and behavioral checks in order to identify those that are malicious. Because Valkyrie analyzes the entire run-time behavior of a file, it is more effective at detecting zero-day threats missed by the signature-based detection systems of classic antivirus products.

Effective cybersecurity requires speed: Valkyrie analysis systems consist of multiple techniques to ensure each and every file submitted is analyzed thoroughly before providing the verdict. In order to do that, Valkyrie deploys two types of technologies – Automatic analysis and Human Expert analysis. The techniques used for automatic analysis include Static Analysis, Dynamic Analysis, Valkyrie Plugins and Embedded Detectors, Signature Based Detection, Trusted Vendor and Certificate Validation, Reputation System and Big Data VirusScope Analysis System. Verdicts can be returned in as little as 4 hours when human analysis is needed.

Valkyrie provides up to the minute analysis of unknown files, allowing organizations to better understand and predict malicious behavior and take steps for preventing any damage from occurring. When paired with Comodo’s endpoint protection, all malware, even if unknown, is rendered harmless.
