Overview
Enhanced Detection Coverage Integrated into RevealX NDR
ExtraHop IDS represents the forefront of intrusion detection, offering advanced capabilities to leverage your network data and a vast array of high-fidelity detections. It facilitates the identification of high-risk CVE exploits, file-based malware, delivering contextualized alerts and supporting comprehensive investigation workflows.
With its market-leading decryption features and integration into your NDR platform, ExtraHop IDS enables you to monitor both east-west and north-south traffic. The result: You stay ahead of the ever-evolving regulatory standards and compliance requirements.
Deeper Detection Coverage
- Real-time detections of known exploits with tens of thousands of curated signatures.
- High-fidelity detections curated by the ExtraHop Threat Research team.
- Detect known threats in encrypted traffic as they move laterally across your network.
Strengthened Response
- Enhanced response capabilities with integrated RevealX workflows.
- Advanced triage with integrated risk scoring, correlation, and investigation.
- Native and turnkey integrations with CrowdStrike, Splunk, and other leading security providers for rapid response.
Reduce Compliance Risk and Resources
- Deploy and manage IDS from the same RevealX NDR sensor.
- Automated cloud updates, including health and rule updates for sensors with restricted access.
- Stay ahead of security governance and compliance requirements from PCI DSS, NIST, and more.
Correlated Security Workflows
Standalone IDS stops at alerts, leaving time-strapped analysts searching for more evidence with other investigation tools. ExtraHop IDS offers full-spectrum attack detection and investigation by blending cloud-scale ML with signature-based insights to expose and contain attackers in the network.
