LightCyber closes breach detection gap in cloud data centres

LightCyber has announced new Magna products for Amazon Web Services ( AWS ) to close the breach detection gap in cloud and hybrid cloud data centres . The new products provide attack visibility for Infrastructure-as-a-Service ( IaaS ) and hybrid cloud data centre workloads . Leveraging all of the existing behavioural profiling and anomaly detection capabilities available in the Magna platform , the new Magna Detector-AWS and Magna Probe-AWS products support deployment within an organisation ’ s AWS Virtual Private Cloud ( VPC ). LightCyber also announced a new version of its agentless , on-demand Magna Pathfinder for Linux to extend integrated network and endpoint detection features to one of the most common data centre server platforms .
The new LightCyber Magna products detect the operational activities of malicious insiders or targeted external attackers attempting to gain control of assets hosted in an AWS cloud data centre or using it as a point for command and control ( C & C ) communication and eventual exfiltration of data . Similar to an on-premise data centre , once attackers gain a foothold , they need to explore the environment through reconnaissance and must expand their realm of control to gain access to assets using lateral movement .
