Reduce Breach Risk

Attackers Can’t Hide From Your Network

Login credentials are cheap, and attackers rarely need to break in when they can simply log in. Once inside, they move fast and stay hidden, especially in the east-west traffic crossing today's faster backbones, a significant visibility gap for most security tools.


ExtraHop's own Global Threat Landscape Report found threat-actor dwell time averages two weeks, and the average ransom payout has climbed to $3.6 million. Every extra day inside your network is a day closer to that ransom demand, and a harder recovery. Built for the AI era, ExtraHop network detection and response turns your network into the one place attackers can't hide, at any speed.

Challenges

Why Break in When You Can Log In

Attackers don't need to break in—they log in, then live off the land using encrypted channels, legitimate tools, and trusted credentials already on your network, leaving little for signatures or endpoint behavior to catch.


Non-human identities alone—service accounts, API keys, AI agents—already outnumber human ones 20 to 1, and ExtraHop's own research shows compromised credentials are the entry point in more than 10% of attacks. Once inside, the average organization takes two weeks to find and contain them. The network is the only place they can't fake being someone else.

WHITE PAPER

You Can’t Stop What You Can’t See

Attackers hide in plain sight by weaponizing the same encryption that protects your business. With over 85% of malware now delivered over encrypted channels, SOCs are hunting in the dark.


You need to decrypt and decode at scale—turning encrypted blind spots into actionable intelligence.

Stop the Spread

After an initial compromise, the attacker spreads through your environment using standard protocols.

Solution

Market-Leading Network Detection and Response

ExtraHop's NDR decrypts encrypted east-west traffic at line rate, including AI agent, API, and MCP/LLM sessions, with zero added latency. Out-of-band, agentless sensors keep recording even when an attacker disables EDR, one of 23 evasion tools ExtraHop's own research has identified, as in the Change Healthcare breach, where attackers moved laterally nine days before a $22M ransom. Real-time behavioral ML, with 450+ detectors mapped to 150+ MITRE ATT&CK techniques, flags machine-speed, AI-driven lateral movement as it happens. Automated Retrospective Detection (ARD) replays full-fidelity traffic the instant a new indicator emerges, producing defensible evidence, records, and proof, not just an alert. Together, these lower MTTD, MTTR, dwell time, and blast radius.

AI Era Scale

Securing East-West Traffic in the Post-Mythos Era

Enterprise backbones are scaling fast: AI workloads are multiplying network traffic, and inside AI clusters, most of it moves east-west, not north-south. That shift is pushing backbones toward 400 Gbps. Most monitoring tools were built for 10, 40, or maybe 100 Gbps but can't keep pace, so teams stack extra sensors and packet brokers just to keep watching—adding cost, complexity, and new points of failure. In this post-Mythos, AI-scale era, ExtraHop is the only platform that combines network performance monitoring, detection and response, intrusion detection, and packet forensics in one system at speeds up to 400 Gbps—cutting that visibility's total cost by up to 38%.
