ExtraHop – Helping organizations stop advanced threats with security that can't be undermined, outsmarted, or compromised

Nowadays, there isn’t a single business that does not rely on the internet for some activity. The internet is used for delivering goods, marketing, placing orders, and interacting with customers. As a result of this reliance on the web, cyber attackers have gained an added incentive to target organizations, resulting in them getting a huge payday.  Malicious actors are using complex techniques to steal data, conduct data breaches, and lock entire enterprise systems, with a large ransom being demanded in return for restoring the database. Cyber-attacks are likely to increase in the foreseeable future, and as a result, businesses should consider recruiting a cyber-threat intelligence system. This is when cyber intelligence plays a pivotal role. Cyber Threat Intelligence (CTI) collects information about present and potential future cyber-attacks and threat actors, which firms can use to improve their cybersecurity and weaken the probability and damage of future cyber-attacks. CTI compiles data from a variety of sources which the CTI team can then analyze to determine which threats at present are most concerning and which attacks will impact your organization the most. This allows business to take further steps to implement effective security solutions and mitigate the effects of any attack should it occur.

ExtraHop is one such company which is on a mission to stop advanced threats with security that can’t be undermined, outsmarted, or compromised. Their dynamic cyber defense platform uses cloud-scale AI to help enterprises detect and respond to advanced threats––before they compromise your business. The company's most-trusted Reveal(x) 360 platform combines the power of cloud-scale AI with the simplicity of SaaS to defend against advanced threats like supply chain attacks, APTs, and zero days, providing security from core to cloud to edge. Cyberattackers can't hide on the network, but ExtraHop can, giving security teams a secret weapon to detect threats, investigate incidents, and stop breaches fast—before they compromise your business.

The Reveal(x) 360 Platform: Leveraging Unified Threat Intelligence

Securing the modern enterprise means protecting a complex web of workloads consisting of hardware, applications, and data spread across edge, core, remote workforce, and cloud deployments. As organizations expand their presence in the cloud they are also increasing their use of containerized deployments and experiencing challenges in maintaining visibility. With ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360, you can unify security controls across hybrid, multicloud, containerized and IoT environments with network detection and response (NDR)—truly cloud-native security.

SaaS-based Reveal(x) 360 provides unified security across on-premises and cloud environments, 360-degree visibility and situational intelligence without friction, and immediate value with a low management burden. In AWS environments, Reveal(x) 360 combines the breadth of VPC Flow Logs with the depth of packets for multi-layered threat intelligence. Perimeter-focused security tools often rely on fixed agents or logs that can leave visibility gaps, miss critical threats, and add unnecessary friction to DevOps processes. SaaS-based Reveal(x) 360 leverages native integrations with cloud service provider packet mirroring features to provide agentless visibility, packet-level granularity, and security at scale.

Strategic XDR

An integrated, best-in-class XDR strategy allows security teams to choose the best products for their environment without the fear of vendor lock-in. By integrating the leading endpoint, network, and log-based security solutions, your team can benefit from a streamlined incident response approach and achieve complete end-to-end visibility. ExtraHop works with other leading security solutions to build integrated workflows natively in ExtraHop Reveal(x) 360. When you pursue XDR as a strategy and achieve effective integrations between the foundational data sources of network, endpoints, and logs, you reduce the intelligence gap inside your environment. Attack behavior that may be obscured or entirely absent from one intelligence source becomes clear with correlation. By automating this correlation, you free up analysts to focus on more impactful tasks, leading to faster, more effective threat investigation and response. The system will allow for increased efficiency amongst the team by identifying threats, resulting in the team being able to focus on priority security threats. It prevents data breaches in an organization as it thoroughly checks for any suspicious links, domains, or IP addresses that are trying to access your enterprise. This analysis also helps in establishing ironclad security protocols which will prevent your enterprise from suffering from attacks.
