Network detection and response (NDR) has a long history, evolving out of network security and network traffic analysis (NTA). The historical definition of network security is to use a perimeter firewall and Intrusion Prevention System (IPS) to screen traffic coming into the network, but as IT technology and security technology have evolved due to modern

Ransomware attacks are occurring at an increasingly staggering pace. The tactics for deploying it are evolving at an equally rapid pace. Ransomware-as-a-service providers on the dark web are using ML to create zero-day strains, and traditional security technologies are struggling to keep up. What if the ransomware attack was only a diversion from the attacker’s

Security Event and Information Management platforms (SIEMs) collect data from security logs and in doing so are supposed to identify blind spots, reduce noise and alert fatigue, and simplify detection and response to complex cyberattacks. However, SIEMs have not lived up to these promises. Now, the new idea is XDR – what are its advantages,

Every security tool vendor talks about detection and response, so what makes NDR so special, and how does it relate to XDR / Open XDR? NDR is special because it focuses on the nerve center of an organization’s IT infrastructure: the network. Wireless or wired device, endpoint or server, application, user or cloud – all

The current model for cybersecurity is broken. It consists of acquiring and deploying a lot of stand-alone tools, each with its own console, to analyze logs or traffic and detect anomalies that could be threats. In this model, it’s up to each security analyst to communicate with other analysts to determine whether each tool’s individual
