CARLSBAD, Calif., April 27, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) – Proficio, a leading Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service provider, today announced the launch of ProSOC Identity Threat Detection and Response. This new service is the industry’s only vendor agnostic Open XDR solution that supports Identity Threat Detection and Response and works with existing security tools without proprietary agents or sensors.
Identity-based attacks are one of the leading cybersecurity threats facing organizations today. Attackers are increasingly trying to steal credentials, increase privileges, and move to the edge in an organization’s infrastructure. Proficio’s ProSOC Identity Threat Detection and Response service uses advanced technology combined with human -led investigations to detect threats to an organization’s Identity and Access Management (IAM) infrastructure. When a high-fidelity threat is detected, Proficio’s automated response solution, Active Defense, can quickly suspend or reset a user account for one or more applications.
“The fact that identity compromises are present in most ransomware and supply chain attacks is a major concern for our clients,” said Brad Taylor, CEO, Proficio. “Traditional security surveillance techniques with manual incident response are often too slow to respond to these attacks and compromises. Our new ProSOC Identity Threat Detection and Response service responds to threats that identity -based more effectively than any other alternative, works with your existing security tools, and does not require modifications or the addition of agents or sensors. “
ProSOC Identity Threat Detection and Response Advantages:
Increased Visibility to Identity Threats: Threat use use cases, cross-correlation rules, machine learning models, telemetry from security devices, and threat intelligence data are combined to more accurately identify underlying attacks on identity and compromises. Clients receive priority alerts aligned with the MITER ATT & CK framework and can view identity threat activity on Proficio’s ProView ™ portal.
Quick Effective Response: Active Defense supports both automated and semi-automated functions, allowing incident responders to perform duplicate verification of a threat before initiating an account suspension via a click on Proficio’s ServiceNow portal.
Reduced Ransomware Risk: The ProSOC Identity Threat Detection and Response service reduces the risk of ransomware attackers stealing privileged credentials to propagate ransomware to business applications and cloud instances.
Vendor Agnostic: Enhances the vendor’s current tool capabilities to deliver threat detection and response across all platforms and telemetry without adding sensors or agents.
ProSOC Identity Threat Detection and Response is offered as an optional extension to Proficio’s award-winning MDR service. Learn more.
