Proactive Cyber Security Solution Matrix
Compare Infocyte HUNT's cyber threat hunting and incident response capabilities to those of Next-gen antivirus (NGAV) software and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) platforms.
| Detection & Response Capabilities | |||
|---|---|---|---|
Hunt within MemoryDiscovery and analysis of injected code, rogue threads, overwrites, hooks, and fileless malware via Automatic Memory Extraction. | |||
Hunt for PersistenceCollects and analyzes triggers for dormant and time-delayed malware or malicious commands | |||
Hunt for Historical InfectionsCollects and analyzes execution artifacts like shimcache, prefetch, etc. | |||
Hunt for Vulnerable SoftwareFinds all installed software with known vulnerabilities and weaknesses | |||
Hunt for Non-compliant SystemsAgentless asset discovery capabilities | |||
Anti-forensic MitigationCounteracts malware stealth techniques like automorphic malware, which attempt to thwart hunters | |||
Proprietary Threat IntelligenceAccess to our proprietary Incyte Cloud Intel with integrated threat intel, reputation, AI-powered malware analysis, and multi-AV | |||
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 collect and hunt within the hundreds of possible locations.
Reactive vs. Proactive Cyber Security
Every organization needs strong cybersecurity defenses. But, defense alone is not enough.
Defensive cybersecurity tools react to prevent roughly 99% of known cyber attacks. Proactive cybersecurity is the practice of hunting, containing, and eliminating the 1% of cyber threas your defensive technologies are prone to miss.
Our platform enables security teams to strike first and strike fast against sophisticated cyber attacks. Automatically hunt, detect, and respond to file-less malware, advanced persistent threats, hidden breaches, and more.
Find out why Infocyte HUNT is the leading independent, cloud-deliverable platform for Threat Hunting & Incident Response and how it reinforces your entire cyber-security ecosystem.
