Guide to Cyber Situational Awareness

This guide helps CISOs, CIOs, and their boards to manage cybersecurity risk and, in the process, reduce exposure to harm.

Align cyber risk with operations
and protect what matters

How do you improve cyber resilience across an ever-changing threat landscape? Keeping security operations (SecOps) aligned to risk gives your business a lasting advantage over ransomware, malware, and other devastating cyberattacks. Netenrich Resolution Intelligence Cloud creates ongoing situational awareness based on potential impact so you can strengthen resilience while reducing complexity.
We operationalize cyber risk management to deliver actionable insight that helps ensure availability, improve response, and maximize return on cybersecurity investments (ROI). Predictive analytics and actionable context help resolve customer issues quickly while keeping SecOps aligned to risk as your threat landscape changes.

 

Insight to action in a fraction of the time

Netenrich's Resolution Intelligence Cloud platform leverages machine learning (ML) and 14+ years’ ops expertise to drive awareness when or even before you need it. Our platform takes in and enhances data from multiple sources to illustrate fast-changing dynamics between your business assets, security controls, and the various techniques attackers use to steal data and hijack operations. Our ongoing process combines: • Asset management • Threat and vulnerability intelligence • External attack surface management (ASM) • Threat modeling • Adversary emulation

Advanced threat modeling charts the various paths attackers can take to compromise assets, operations, and data.

We quantify cyber risk and deliver rich context, prioritization, and recommended steps to mitigate and avert risk. Prescriptive insights drive smarter, faster threat hunting, detection, response, and resolution out of the gate and over time.

No security team can chase every alert or block every attack, but you should always know where to start. Resolution Intelligence Cloud for situational awareness quantifies and scores risks based on likelihood, confidence, and impact of a potential threat or attack. This way, your defenders can better predict, intercept, disrupt, and prioritize response to attacks.

The process starts with identifying your organization’s crown-jewel assets — the data, systems, operations, and processes the business cannot run without — and modeling step-by-step pathways to reach them. The Netenrich solution measures the likelihood of attack and applies trending threat intelligence about your environment to calculate attackers’ mean time to compromise (MTTC) — a meaningful “true north” metric by which to manage SecOps.

MTTC – Cybersecurity’s new “True North”

The Resolution Intelligence Cloud dashboard shows that the probability of a web server being compromised within one day is 6 percent. If the attack path goes unaddressed for 28 days, the probability of an attack succeeding rises to 50 percent.

Emulating adversary behaviors shows defenders how — and how quickly — intruders might navigate from various entry points to steal data or shut down operations. Even with unprecedented insight into attack probability, your defenders need to know more, like what steps to take and when something changes. Netenrich reports and dashboards feature recommendations on what to do — and do first — to disrupt malicious behaviors. Ongoing discovery detects events that automatically trigger additional threat modeling and adversary emulation.

Netenrich Attack Surface Exposure (ASE) automatically discovers risk from brand and domain exposure (for example, sub-domains, websites, certificates, content management systems, etc.), unpatched vulnerabilities, and misconfigurations. Analysis and prioritization take place continuously with easy drill-down investigation into individual risks uncovered.

Compared with penetration tests, red teams, and security ratings that provide only point-in-time perspective, Netenrich ASE delivers ongoing coverage and assessment of brand risk from domains, cloud exposure, unpatched vulnerabilities, common misconfigurations, and shadow IT.

Staying aligned — less cyber risk with less effort
