cybersecurity incident response tools

The saying that there are two types of organizations, those
that have gotten breached and those who have but just don’t know it
yet, has never been more relevant, making the sound incident
response a required capability in any organization’s security
stack.

To assist in this critical mission, Cynet is launching a free IR
tool offering, applicable to both IR service providers in need of a
powerful, free incident response platform, and to
organizations that either suspect security incidents and want to
get immediate visibility into what happened, or that know they have
a breach and need to respond immediately.

Incident response is about getting two things done as fast as
possible: accurately knowing breach scope and impact; ensuring that
all malicious presence and activity are eliminated. Cynet
introduces unmatched speed and efficiency into both aspects with
its new free IR offering.

“We see that many organizations and service providers struggle to
get the threat visibility they need,” said Eyal Gruner, co-founder
of Cynet. “IR is an extremely time-sensitive process and having the
required threat visibility up and running in minutes is a must.”

The need to deploy an additional product is in many cases a hurdle
– in an IR context, fast and seamless deployment is not a
nice-to-have. It will often make the difference between successful
containment and critical damage. Another delaying factor is the
need to hunt and investigate threats by correlating activities and
configurations manually.

Cynet 360 is ideal for incident response purposes for several
reasons. Its SaaS-based, lightspeed distribution enables coverage
of thousands of endpoints in minutes.

Its automated threat discovery radically reduces the manual
investigation time, and its complete set of remediation actions
enables responders to recover from any type of threat. With Cynet
you can, among other things:

  • Get instant visibility to all entities in the internal
    environment: users, hosts, files, running processes and network
    traffic.
  • Easily locate live attacks and determine their scope and
    impact.
  • Remove malicious files, disable compromised users and block
    risky network connections with the click of a button.
  • Automate threat discovery and removal processes.
  • Leverage Cynet central management to distribute other open
    source tools across the environment.
  • Hunt for threats in real-time using IOC feeds.

“It’s true that incident response is many times outsourced, but
we’ve put a lot of thought into Cynet 360, so it can be used by an
internal team as well,” said Gruner. “There’s a lot of gray areas
here. What if you only suspect a breach but are not sure? Cynet IR
can easily tell you what’s going on. Once you know, you can decide
if you handle it internally or not.”

Like it or not, breaches are part of our reality. To acknowledge
that means to ensure that you have what it takes to confront them.

Anyone that’s involved in incident response, whether as a
service provider of end user, should seriously consider upgrading
its current capabilities with Cynet free IR.
