Attivo Networks ’ EDN Solution integrates with SentinelOne Singularity XDR
Srikant Vissamsetti , Senior Vice President of Engineering , Attivo Networks credentials and perform reconnaissance activities needed for lateral movement .
Attivo Networks has announced a new integration for the Attivo EDN Suite with SentinelOne ’ s Singularity XDR platform . With an uptick in the number of human and machine entities to secure , the attack surface is expanding , making it challenging for organizations to protect their networks from credential-based attacks .
The Attivo Endpoint Detection Net ( EDN ) solution detects credential and privilege escalation attacks , then sends the alert data to the SentinelOne XDR platform , which automatically quarantines the infected endpoint . Combining the two solutions accelerates incident response and reduces the mean-time-to-respond or remediate . Joint customers can prevent endpoint compromises and disrupt attacker attempts to gather
The integrated solution creates a rich defense against even the most sophisticated attackers and provides comprehensive coverage across the broadest set of attack techniques , as documented in the MITRE ATT & CK matrix .
“ The Attivo EDN solution is a perfect complement to the SentinelOne Singularity XDR platform . It seamlessly adds visibility to credential-based attacks , denies the adversary access to the data they seek and derails them with misinformation every step of the way ,” said Srikant Vissamsetti , Senior Vice President of Engineering , Attivo Networks .
“ Plus , joint customers gain visibility into exposed , orphaned or misused credentials on an endpoint and efficiently remove attack paths that adversaries could leverage .”
Microsoft teams up with Intel to defend against cryptojacking
Microsoft and Intel have announced their collaboration to defend against cryptojacking .
With this partnership , Microsoft Defender for Endpoint , a cloud powered end-point security solution , has integrated Intel Threat Detection Technology ( Intel TDT ) to enhance the detection capability and protection against cryptojacking malware .
Intel TDT advanced threat detection technology leverages CPU telemetry and Machine Learning ( ML ) heuristics to help end-point security solutions , such as Microsoft Defender , identify threats and detect anomalous activity .
As soon as threats are detected , Intel TDT sends a high-fidelity signal that triggers remediation workflows of end-point detection and response ( EDR ) solutions to help protect the infected PC and prevent lateral movement across the corporate fleet .
Karthik Selvaraj , Principal Security Research Manager , Microsoft , said : “ As organizations look to simplify their security investments , built-in platform-based security technologies , such as the integration of Intel TDT with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint , combine best of breed in a streamlined solution .”
The Microsoft Defender for Endpoint and Intel TDT integrated solution works natively with Intel Core processors and the Intel vPro platform , 6th Generation or above , and doesn ’ t require any additional investments , IT configuration or installation of agents .
