THREAT DETECTION & MONITORING
Proactively minimize the risk of a data breach.
Threat detection is the practice of analyzing the entirety of a business ecosystem to identify any malicious activity that could compromise the business. If a threat is detected, then mitigation efforts must be enacted to properly neutralize the threat before it can exploit any present vulnerabilities.
Threat detection requires both a human element, as well as a technical element. The human element includes security analysts who analyze trends, patterns in data, behaviors, and reports, as well as those who can determine if anomalous data indicates a potential threat or a false alarm.
But threat detection technology also plays a key part in the detection process. We provide various technologies to help businesses secure the entirely of their business environment, from end to end, to identify and capture threats before they become a serious problem.
KEY BENEFITS
The benefits of threat detection & monitoring
When it comes to detecting and mitigating threats, speed is crucial. Security programs must be able to detect threats quickly and efficiently so bad actors don’t have enough time to root around in sensitive data.
Once in place, threat intelligence tooling supports a business with the detection and monitoring of “known” and “unknown” threats. Known threats involve analyzing user behavior to detect outliers as soon as possible whereas unknown threats typically involve unrelated activities detected on the network over time.
Leverage threat intelligence technology to prevent bad actors from impacting your business operations.
Frequently Asked Questions
Here are some of the most asked questions we encounter regarding threat detection and monitoring.
Threat detection describes the ability of organizations to quickly and accurately identify threats to the network, applications, or other assets within the network. The first step to an effective threat detection and response process is understanding what threats are present in the current environment.
Threat intelligence benefits organizations of all shapes and sizes by helping process threat data to understand their attackers better, respond faster to incidents, and proactively get ahead of a threat actor’s next move. For almost every organization, this data is crucial to achieve a level of protection that would otherwise be out of reach.
- Penetration testing: By thinking the way a cybercriminal would, organizations should regularly scan their IT environments for vulnerabilities, such as unpatched software, authentication errors, and more.
- Automated monitoring systems: Alongside manual processes, organizations should enhance their cybersecurity by integrating automated threat detection systems. These platforms can help organizations by tracking device performance and activity, monitoring web traffic, and notifying the cybersecurity team when irregularities are detected.
- User behavior analytics: By analyzing user behavior, an organization can better understand what normal behavior for an employee would look like. This includes the kind of data they access, the time of day during which they log on, and their physical location. That way, any outlying behavior will stand out as unusual, and it will be easier for a security analyst to know what behavior to investigate.
