Adversary hunting is the stealthy and surgical detection and eviction of adversaries within your network without prior adversary knowledge or known indicators of compromise. The goal of hunting is to detect and evict adversaries that have bypassed defenses before damage and loss can occur. To do so, a hunter must be able to enter the network undetected, identify the adversary at any stage of the kill chain, and evict them without disrupting running systems.

But even after following online tutorials, attending webinars and workshops – you might be struggling to achieve any justifiable success with your adversary hunting program, or simply lost with the large amount of data generated from the first hunt.

In this paper we have laid down the top 10 most important tasks to perform to make your adversary hunting program a success.

While many organizations are still focused on legacy signature based perimeter controls, today’s adversary and unknown malware walks out the back door with all their data. So what’s the answer?

This white paper, “The Future of Machine Learning in Cybersecurity,” explains machine learning (ML) technology in a non-technical easy to read language — what it is, how it works and why it offers better protection against the sophisticated attacks that bypass legacy security controls. At LMNTRIX we apply machine learning technology to both network packets as part of the LMNTRIX Hunt NDR solution and our endpoint as part of LMNTRIX Respond to deliver a completely signatureless next-gen AV solution. Our experts avoid technicalities to make it more easy to read by non-experts.

For many enterprises, the migration and adoption of cloud platforms were already underway before 2020 started. As soon as many governments started instituting lockdowns and travel bans in an effort to curb the COVID-19 pandemic. As businesses looked for ways to try and mitigate the devastating financial effect of the pandemic they saw Cloud solutions as potential hedges against financial loss and improving workflow. This led to the rapid adoption of cloud solutions be they provided from a third-party or looking to develop a private cloud.

As the cloud grows, so do the security threats. Credential abuse, misconfigurations and lack of visibility creates vulnerabilities for targeted attacks. A suitable strategic approach can mitigate these risks.

Download this report to learn how cloud security using the LMNTRIX Active Defense protects traditional on-premise workloads from being leveraged for cloud attacks. Our technology stack natively integrates with cloud providers to add protection, detection and visibility for existing cloud workloads at scale. As environments and attackers change, our ongoing innovations help our customers meet new security challenges and prevent advanced attacks that go undetected by traditional security measures. 

Building a SOC, of whatever type you need, will take considerable effort, expertise, and resources to complete successfully. Never underestimate just how expensive it will be or how long it can take to get from a paper plan to a fully operational facility running at optimal efficiency.

With the extensive requirements for conceiving, developing, building, and staffing a SOC, it is easy to see why SOCs can cost so much and yet still fail to live up to expectations. It is essential to keep in mind before starting this process that no SOC will be perfect, particularly when it first goes live. SOC’s need constant maintenance, updating, enhancement, and evolution if they are to become effective and remain viable over the long term.

It’s happened: You’ve received a breach notification — either from internal staff, an external tipster or law enforcement. Intruders have broken through your defenses and into your organization’s environment. What are your next steps?

Will you respond like the Equifax CEO Rick Smith who stated that the firm would be “defined by its response” then went onto publish a website on which customers had to file a claim by entering confidential information that Equifax had already mishandled!

Or will you handle it like Uber who was exposed for an attempted payment to keep criminals from exposing a massive data breach. It’s one thing to forgive the initial hack, but paying to cover it up is another thing. They even went as far as demanding the hackers signed nondisclosure agreements.

And in 2020, Travelex camouflaged a system-wide outage as a “scheduled maintenance,” later admitting that the event was the result of a massive ransomware attack, ignoring the age-old wisdom that “honesty is always the best policy.”

This is no surprise: cyber extortion is a highly lucrative enterprise for cybercriminals.

Every organisation needs a strategy for preventing and responding to ransomware and cyber extortion.

The LMNTRIX ransomware protection, containment and recovery guide provides practical tools for people at all levels of an organisation to understand and manage the risk posed by ransomware and cyber extortion.

This guide will provide practical zero cost endpoint security controls and enforcement measures which can limit the capability for a ransomware or malware variant to impact a large scope of systems within an environment. If there is an active outbreak, depending upon the propagation method that the variant is leveraging, implementing many of the recommendations within this document can potentially disrupt and contain the event.

Over $12B has been lost to spear phishing and account takeover. Targeted attacks carry no malicious payload (URLs or attachments) and bypass all email gateways easily..

LMNTRIX XDR learns your business’s unique communication patterns to detect personalized fraud in real-time to protect against business email compromise and account takeover including: .

As security challenges evolve, prevention-based security is hopelessly insufficient and outclassed. We know attackers have become more advanced, and we know that even the most expensive traditional security solutions fail to protect organizations.

The answer is to pivot from passive perimeter defenses to a proactive solution that can detect attacks within the perimeters early enough to prevent harm to the business. Deception-based solutions give security teams the ability to detect and contain attackers where damage is minimized. In addition, the team has the benefit of time and data to understand the attack and prevent reoccurrence.

The LMNTRIX Deception Technology Guide provides a summary of how undetectable deceptions create a hostile environment for attackers, stops lateral movement, and saves your critical assets.

A cloud-delivered Network Detection and Response (NDR) platform is the evolution of effective IT security. It reliably detects threats and sophisticated attacks, retains full-packet forensics for as long as necessary, and enables integrated response. Cloud-delivered NDR consolidates multiple security point products into a single platform that deploys rapidly.

It provides continuous threat visibility as organizations move workloads from on-premises to the cloud or expand into other environments such as industrial networks. NDR also increases the efficiency of security teams to allow them to mitigate any impact of attacks rapidly.
