The FireEye Central Management System (CMS) consolidates the management, reporting, and data sharing of FireEye Web, Email, and Malware Analysis appliances in an easy-to-deploy, network-based appliance. The CMS serves as the local distribution hub for the malware security intelligence auto-generated within your FireEye deployment, providing specific protections against threats targeting the organization. It also offers a centralized way to configure, manage, and upgrade groups of FireEye security appliances.
By deploying FireEye Web and Email systems with the FireEye Central Management Server, CMS enables the detailed analysis of blended threats, such as pinpointing the spear phishing email used to distribute malicious URLs.
- Streamlines and centralizes management of multiple FireEye appliances – Reduces time spent managing configurations, threat updates, and appliance software upgrades, leveraging dynamic configurations and remote management of individual or groups of appliances
- Smooth workflow integration from dashboard to details – At-a-glance security dashboard helps track Web and email threats and lets you drill down to see specifics and take action
- Consolidates and preserves data to speed reports and audits – Provides a central storehouse for audit-relevant security events to meet long-term data retention requirements
- Reveals the lifecycle of blended attacks – Working with the FireEye Web and Email MPS, the Central Management System correlates malicious URLs with the originating emails and the intended victims to reveal the entire attack lifecycle and help protect other potential victims
