Sourcefire 3D System Release Notes

3

New and Updated Features and Functionality

submitted for additional malware analysis using Sourcefire’s cloud-based 

sandboxing technology, dynamic analysis.
File capture is configured as part of a file policy and each file has a SHA-256 

calculated to uniquely identify files and reduce duplicates in file storage. Captured 

files are stored on the primary hard drive of the FirePOWER appliance.
You can manually submit captured files for dynamic analysis or download them 

from the FirePOWER appliance through event table views, the network file 

trajectory feature, and the captured files table view.

Dynamic Analysis, Threat Scores, and Summary Reports

: Malware

: Series 3, Virtual, X-Series

: Any except DC500

Version 5.3 introduces dynamic analysis, a feature that maximizes your ability to 

quickly identify new zero-day malicious behavior on your network through the use 

of cloud-based technology. When configured, you can submit previously unseen 

files with an unknown disposition to the Sourcefire cloud for an in-depth analysis 

of the file’s behavior. Based on that behavior, a threat score is determined and 

communicated back to the Defense Center. The higher the threat score, the more 

likely the file is malicious and action can be taken based on threat score levels.
Sourcefire also provides a related dynamic analysis summary report that provides 

details on the analysis and why the threat score was assigned to the file. This 

additional information helps you identify malware and fine tune your detection 

capabilities.
You can configure your system to automatically capture and send files for 

dynamic analysis, or you can submit them for analysis on demand. For more 

information about the file capture feature, see 

Custom Detection

: Malware

: Series 3, Virtual, X-Series

: Any except DC500

Custom file detection can be used to identify and block any files moving around 

your network, even if Sourcefire has not identified the file as malicious. You do 

not need a cloud connection to perform these lookups, so custom file detection is 

ideal for use with any type of private intelligence data you have. 
If you have identified a malicious file, you can automatically block it by adding its 

unique SHA-256 value to the custom file detection list. You can use the custom 

detection list in combination with the clean list, which lets you mark specific files 

as clean.
Together, the custom file detection list and clean list help you customize your 

malware protection approach to your specific environment. The custom file
