Attacker-Centric Behavioral Analytics

Stay ahead of an ever-changing threat landscape and defend against attackers intent on exploiting traditionally vulnerable APIs and applications.

Protection that evolves with attacks

APIs and applications are often the holy grail for attackers. These adversaries see great value in these assets and exert significant time and creativity to evade rules-based detection techniques. ThreatX goes far beyond the basics of rules by inspecting the specific behaviors of an adversary over time. Through this inspection, ThreatX’s Attacker-Centric Behavioral Analytics (ACBA) enable security teams to stay ahead of an ever-changing threat landscape and defend against attackers intent on exploiting traditionally vulnerable applications and APIs.

How We Help

Quickly Identify, Monitor, and Block the Riskiest Threats in APIs and Applications

ThreatX identifies and correlates attackers’ behavior across multiple attack vectors to more precisely identify threats than is possible via a signature-based approach

Relying on signatures to identify threats used to work – but today, such approaches fall short and assume attackers are not as capable and creative as they are. By tracking and analyzing the behavior of attackers over time, ThreatX gains a much more complete and precise view of risk – both immediately and borne through low and slow attacks over time. This level of behavioral insight gives you the most complete defense against API and application attackers.

Say Goodbye to Endless Custom Rules and Maintenance

ThreatX automatically responds to changing attack patterns over time, as attacks morph, ebb and flow, adjusting to the motions of security defenses

The methods, modes, and cadence of attacks are far from consistent. Adversaries probe APIs and applications for vulnerabilities – and may retreat before relaunching an attack. Attackers deploy bots and DDoS attacks, as well as other sophisticated techniques, that make it challenging – if not impossible – to rely on signatures as a means of protection.

Through ThreatX’s ACBA, customers can identify tactics and procedures being deployed and escalation of the kill chain over time, determine whether an attempt is legitimate – or an attack, and secure their APIs and applications. We analyze IP reputation, TOR exit node status, geo IP, user agent, TLS fingerprint, and a number of behavioral attributes to identify entities and codify the risk associated with their behavior.

High Confidence Automated Blocking

Block suspicious entities from accessing APIs or applications when behaviors have surpassed an acceptable threshold of risk

Attacker-Centric Behavioral Analytics, coupled with our single risk engine, blocks a suspicious entity from accessing an API or application when behaviors have surpassed an acceptable threshold of risk. Because the IP address of an entity currently exhibiting suspicious or malicious behavior may later be reassigned to a legitimate user, each entity is allowed three opportunities to exhibit questionable behavior before they’re permanently blocked.

  • ThreatX’s blocking modes are designed to block malicious requests and deter suspicious entities from attacking your sites, while allowing benign traffic and real users through.

  • ThreatX’s ACBA engine identifies and blocks persistently malicious entities.

  • ThreatX analyzes IP reputation, TOR exit node status, geo IP, user agent, TLS fingerprint, and a number of behavioral attributes to identify entities and codify the risk associated with their behavior.

  • ThreatX analyzes behaviors from multiple vantage points – rather than requiring a single, significantly risky event or identifying a known signature – to block a suspicious entity.

Key Benefits

Secure APIs and applications with confidence, not complexity

Block attacks in real time with API and application protection you can trust 24/7 (without having to manage it yourself).
Block botnets and advanced attacks in real time

The ThreatX platform is always monitoring, assessing, and blocking attacks – automatically. It learns what threats to your system look like and stops them based on their risk level, so you can keep sites available and business humming.

Get your nights and weekends back

Stopping zero-day threats requires more than just software. You need real live people – but it doesn’t have to be you. Our expert team takes it on for you, so you don’t have to manage signatures or worry about false positives.

Ward off attacks with zero hand-holding

Onboard sites in under 15 minutes, not weeks. Block threats in an instant. And use simple dashboards that make it easy to see what’s going on.
