Why Behavior is the Most Important Aspect of Security

The new battleground for information security is inside your network. Perimeter security, such as firewalls and anti-malware, remain a necessary and important component of every security strategy; however, the perpetrators of advanced, targeted threats are aggressively breaking through this front line of defense. Patient, cunning, and armed with the resources to succeed, they will eventually find their way inside your organization. In addition, a “rogue insider” with legitimate access may abuse trusted privileges. Whether the threat originates externally or with a malicious insider, attackers will lie in wait as long as necessary to gain access to valuable assets resulting in damaged reputations, financial losses, and stolen intellectual property.

How do advanced attackers find their way to the heart of your enterprise? The pathway is the privileged account. According to information security firm Mandiant, advanced persistent threat attackers “prefer to leverage privileged accounts where possible, such as domain administrators, service accounts with domain privilege, local administrator accounts, and privileged user accounts.” Mandiant found that of 141 companies attacked by Chinese cyber attackers, 90 percent of breaches involved privileged pathways.
