The Anatomy of a Hack: Perception vs. Reality



Learn the anatomy of a hack.
Prevent a data breach.


It’s a common belief that data breaches require a tremendous amount of sophistication to “break” through the almost impenetrable perimeter defenses that organizations have put in place.

 

Hackers don't break in. They log in!

 

Post-mortem analysis concludes that the source of a hack is most often compromised credentials, and the data proves it:

  • 74 percent of respondents acknowledge access to a privileged account was used in a breach, according to a study by Centrify.
  • 80 percent of security breaches involve compromised privileged credentials according to Forrester.

 

Register to learn the 3 major phases of the “cyber-attack lifecycle” (aka “kill chain”) and important measures for preventing data exfiltration, including:

  • Enforcing MFA
  • Using host-based auditing
  • Leveraging machine learning algorithms to monitor, identify, and alert on high risk activity
