Scalable real-time streaming analytics

Our advanced security detections enable better  situational awareness and rapid response times to suspicious behavior. They effectively combat insider threats, credential access and compromise, lateral movement and living off the land.

Replacing our previous SIEM with Splunk Enterprise Security has dramatically improved our ability to effectively monitor and secure our complex hybrid environment. At the same time, using Splunk Cloud has helped ensure we have the flexibility we need to respond to the evolving threat landscape.

Learn more about advanced threat detection

Advanced threat detection is a method of monitoring infrastructure to identify attacks that bypass traditional security prevention techniques. It often relies on techniques including endpoint monitoring, signature- and behavior-based detection, malware sandboxing and user and entity behavior analytics.

The purpose of advanced threat detection is to detect and mitigate an advanced attack proactively before it escalates to a breach. Doing so reduces the number and severity of compromises and improves the security of the environment. Advanced threat detection is critical to protecting data and should be integrated into an organization’s security program.

Some common strategies for advanced threat detection include creating a broad test repository, understanding the behavior of benign software and collecting data continuously to detect anomalies. Malware sandboxing is a way to isolate an application from other programs and networks so that it can execute without impacting other resources. Predictive analytics is another strategy for advanced threat detection that can help to identify malicious behavior. Signature and behavior-based threat detection is also widely used to uncover potentially malicious payloads.
