Proactive Cyber Security Solution Matrix
Compare Infocyte's foresnsic threat detection capabilities to Anti-virus (AV) software and traditional Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) platforms.
| Detection & Response Capabilities | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
Memory AnalysisDiscovery and analysis of injected code, rogue threads, overwrites, hooks, and fileless malware via Automatic Memory Extraction | ||||
Persistence MechanismsCollects and analyzes triggers for dormant and time-delayed malware or malicious commands | ||||
Historical InfectionsCollects and analyzes execution artifacts like shimcache, prefetch, etc. | ||||
Detect Vulnerable SoftwareFinds all installed software with known vulnerabilities and weaknesses | ||||
Detect Non-Compliant SystemsAgentless asset discovery capabilities | ||||
Anti-Forensic MitigationCounteracts malware stealth techniques like automorphic malware, which attempt to thwart hunters | ||||
Advanced Response CapabilitiesScalable and extensible response actions with a single click | ||||
Real-Time DetectionThreats that evade prevention and protection tools | ||||
Proprietary Threat IntelligenceAccess to our proprietary Incyte Cloud Intel with integrated threat intel, reputation, AI-powered malware analysis, and multi-AV | ||||
Cloud-Native SolutionBorn in the cloud, scalability in the hundreds of thousands of systems, uptime reliability to 99.99% | ||||
Scan Systems for Active Malware (Non-signature based or machine learning)With 10+ million new malware samples identified each month, signatures can't keep up | ||||
Scan Systems for Active Malware (Signature-based)Signatures still have a place for identifying known threats |
[1] Some NextGen AV engines and some EDR platforms with file-less and memory-based attack features typically only monitor the door to your memory (aka monitoring key API calls used in malicious injection) in order to prevent or detect the attack in real-time, they do not actually analyze memory, which is almost exclusively handled offline via a third-party memory forensics tool, after a full physical memory acquisition.
[2] Some EDR platforms will monitor for changes to the most common persistence mechanisms, but do not offer capabilities to identify and remediate within the hundreds of possible locations.
Reactive vs. Proactive Cyber Security
Over 50% of breaches go undetected by existing cyber defense tools.
Defensive cybersecurity tools are designed to guard the gate to your environment, like a camera pointed at a doorway, they react to prevent known cyber attacks. Today's sophisticated threat actors utilize multi-stage, delayed detection techniques to avoid detection for days, weeks, even months.
Proactive cybersecurity is the practice of detecting, isolating and remediating the cyber threats your defensive technologies missed, misidentified as non-threatening or can no longer analyze due to short data retention policies.
Infocyte enables you to strike first and strike fast against sophisticated cyber attacks. Our advanced forensics-based solution resolves historical forensic data with real-time event data so you can quickly determine root cause to identify and isolate patient zero.
With Infocyte you can automatically detect, and respond to fileless malware, advanced persistent threats, hidden breaches and more.
