The Importance of an NDR Solution to Early Detect Supply Chain Attacks in Corporate Networks

Digital transformation has witnessed a boost in recent years, especially in the wake of the COVID19 pandemic, which accelerated the adoption of digital technologies by several years in just a few months. Integrating digital technology in business has brought significant benefits. However, it also opened the door wide for new security risks and vulnerabilities.

NDR: The new pillar of cybersecurity

Prevention and protection are still considered the means of choice when trying to safeguard one's own IT systems. However, the fact that this approach is not sufficient can now be read almost daily in the media.

An expert statement on the recent RUAG hack

Attack on MS Exchange Server: BSI declares "red" alert for the first time in seven years

Cyber attacks are becoming more frequent and more serious. The most recent example is the worldwide attack on Microsoft's Exchange Server: In March, hackers infiltrated the system via four security holes. This allowed them to log in as administrator without a password and thus read emails or access passwords and devices of their victims in the network. An estimated 250,000 systems were affected - 30 per cent of them in the DACH region. The fact that so many companies in German-speaking countries fell victim to the attack is no coincidence. In many places, especially in medium-sized businesses, the necessary security awareness is still lacking.

Visibility NOW – complete visibility of network activities, faster than ever before

Cyber attacks are becoming more and more frequent and the damage caused to companies is correspondingly greater. Exposed entry points for hackers (Microsoft Exchange, SolarWinds, etc.) are just the tip of the iceberg. Phising activities on employees are also becoming increasingly sophisticated. In short, whether hackers are active in your network is only a matter of time - if they're not already in it. Fast, reliable and holistic network monitoring for early detection of anomalies is therefore more important than ever.

A wide-spread cyber-attack against multiple government agencies, critical infrastructure providers and private sector organizations such as FireEye was made public this December. The attackers breached their victims’ IT networks by compromising the software supplier SolarWinds, which allowed them to install a Remote Access Trojan (RAT) through SolarWinds’ software update mechanism. In this blog you learn how ML-based detection mechanisms contain such attacks before signatures or Indicators Of Compromise (IOCs) are publicly known.

Supply chain attacks. The open back door into your IT network

Cyber attackers typically exploit a company’s weakest link to break in and steal data or launch a ransomware attack. Thus, the better you protect your company’s IT infrastructure from external intruders, the safer it is, right? Unfortunately, this is not necessarily true, as you can also be at risk through your trusted suppliers.

How hackers communicate - DGA

Have you ever flown a drone? It’s not easy to master, but once you are in control, the experience is unique. You reach places which you otherwise wouldn’t and completely change your perspective. However, a good connection between your remote control and the drone is key. Otherwise, you risk crashing the drone and, in the worst case, losing it.

The return of ransomware

Ransomware as a cyber threat is on the rise. Over the summer companies like Meier Tobler, Omya and various German hospitals were affected. Hackers infiltrate businesses through malicious emails, steal and encrypt critical data. Companies are forced to pay a ransom or face the complete loss of their data. The aftermath of an attack can cost companies millions of dollars! While regular data back-ups help to prevent a complete loss, costs related to business interruptions and the risk of having trade secrets revealed should not be underestimated. I strongly recommend to make life hard for every attacker in your system, through a restrictively configured firewall. If you want to know how Exeon helps you to detect holes in your firewall, read the full blogpost or book directly a personal video call.
