Attivo Networks news stories

The capabilities add hybrid environment support and provide remediation guidance for on-premises, cloud, and managed AD environments.

SentinelOne has agreed to acquire Attivo Networks to extend its AI-powered prevention, detection, and response capabilities to identity-based threats.

Attivo Networks has expanded its Active Directory Protection portfolio, adding capabilities to detect identity-based attacks at the domain controller.

The partnership is designed to enable Attivo Networks to accelerate its overall business growth and meet regional demand among large and mid-market public and private sector enterprises, according to a statement.

Even with education and phishing tests, users continue to hand over legitimate logins to attackers, who in turn exploit them with a high degree of success.

"Attackers are leveraging the intricacies of Active Directory to penetrate the environment through an exponential number of attack paths."

Bots and infrastructure-as-code automation are common additions to the business landscape, and their explosion has not gone unnoticed by threat actors.

The tool is part of Attivo’s Endpoint Detection Net suite, and is aimed at enabling organisations to hide credentials from would-be attackers and their tools.

Now that CEOs across A/NZ properly understand cybersecurity and cyber-risks, it’s time to get the board of directors up to speed.

The solution is esigned to reduce the attack surface for entitlements and identities within the cloud.

"This attack is especially dangerous because Kaseya is used by many Managed Service Providers that many businesses trust to handle their IT functions."

"Budget funding, awareness and technology solutions are sorely needed today to support Australian business cybersecurity."

The integrated solution creates a defence against sophisticated attackers and provides comprehensive coverage across a broad set of attack techniques, as documented in the MITRE ATT&CK matrix.

With so many attacks abusing misconfigurations in Active Directory, it’s time to fix it, writes Attivo Networks regional director for ANZ Jim Cook.

"We see Active Directory exploitation used in the majority of ransomware, insider and advanced attacks. We are pleased to now offer our customers early and efficient solutions for preventing the misuse of Active Directory.”

"Attivo and Quantea together provide advanced, real-time, in-network threat detection and improved incident response."

Attivo Networks and SentinelOne have teamed up to combine cybersecurity defences and stop attackers in their tracks.

Attivo Networks’ endpoint security solutions are available for free trial and purchase through McAfee’s new cloud marketplace.

Until recently, most ransomware attacks have been automated affairs. But things are changing, writes Attivo Networks regional director for A/NZ Jim Cook.

Vectra, an Australian provider of security consulting, risk management, compliance and managed services, will deploy the Attivo ThreatDefend Platform as a service to complement its managed service portfolio offering.

Cyber deception reduces data breach costs by more than 51% and Security Operations Centre (SOC) inefficiencies by 32%, according to a new research report by Attivo Networks and Kevin Fiscus of Deceptive Defense.

Even with the best perimeter defences in place, malicious actors can still gain access to a network and resources connected to it. But a new technique has made it significantly easier to spot these cyber-attackers.

Attivo Networks is a US-based technology vendor in the cybersecurity space. The company focuses on threat detection and deception.

The company was named as an example of platforms that create false artifacts to aid threat detection in Gartner’s 2020 Security Ops Hype Cycle report.
