What is Attivo Networks hoping
to achieve with participation at
the event?
With rapidly expanding networks
and evolving attack surfaces, many
organisations are still searching for
an efficient way to reduce dwell time
and increase in-network visibility.
Cybercriminals are using the latest
technology to advance their attacks and
once they are in, they have about 101
days to conduct their attack undetected
(FireEye M-Trends Report).
As dwell times remain high and the
number of breaches continues to
skyrocket, it is evident that prevention
technologies alone aren’t enough. Early
and accurate detection and remediation
of in-network threats is more critical than
ever before.
At GITEX Technology Week, we aim to
increase the level of awareness and
knowledge of deception technology’s
role in providing accurate and efficient

Attivo Networks will be
showcasing its deception

What products is Attivo
Networks showcasing
specifically at the show?
Attivo will illustrate the critical role
that deception technology is playing
in early and accurate in-network
threat detection and accelerated
incident response. The company will
be showcasing the Attivo Networks
ThreatDefend Deception and Response
solution, which provides immediate
detection value by accurately alerting
on attacker engagement with decoys or
attempts to use deception credentials,
most notably early in the attack cycle.
Attivo’s deception technology is unique
because it provides organisations
with the ability to create a proactive
defence design to misdirect and derail
attacks that have bypassed perimeter
security controls. The solution provides
efficient and immediate detection value
by alerting on attacker engagement or
attempting to use deception credentials.
Alerts are engagement-based and
substantiated, eliminating false positives
and accelerating incident response. u
Early and accurate
detection and
remediation of in-
network threats is
more critical than
ever before.
