When They're Already Inside the Walls:
How to Detect and Stop Lateral Movement
The Defender's Dilemma
It's hard to accept, but advanced attackers have an advantage at the perimeter. Their sophistication, determination, and persistence will inevitably land them inside. Any small, human error, supply-chain dependence, logic flaw, or adversary innovation can expose an entry point, even with world-class defenses.But getting in is only the first step. The most advanced threats are those already on the inside, moving laterally, and covering their tracks so they can accomplish their real objective—executing ransomware or exfiltrating valuable customer data and intellectual property.
The Intruder's Demise
Advanced attackers should be fought where they are: on the inside. Advanced threats, like insider threats, require a post-compromise defense posture. You can turn the kill chain to your favor with ExtraHop Reveal(x) network detection and response (NDR).NDR is completely covert and tamper-proof, meaning attackers will have no idea you're on to them until it's too late. As they move laterally within your network, Reveal(x) 360 is the only solution that shows you not just where intruders are going, but where they've been. With 90-days of lookback, you have all the information you need to go from detection to response within a few clicks.

Start Hunting Right Away
Traditionally, once an adversary gets inside of your perimeter undetected, time is on their side. Assuming no one is watching, they know they're free to move laterally and live off the land as they search for what they're really after. Today, dwell time is still measured in months.Cutting dwell time prevents catastrophic damage by detecting attackers before they reach your most critical assets like domain controllers, intellectual property, and customer databases.
Start hunting in minutes, not months. Reveal(x) 360 integrates with all major cloud vendors' native packet mirroring features with just a few clicks. Nothing to deploy or agents to load, that's it–you're hunting. Adversaries and your lines of business won't even know it is there.
