Illusive Collaborates with Microsoft on Active Defense Solution with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint to Combat Advanced Human-Operated AttacksNEW YORK and TEL AVIV, Israel, April 14, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Illusive, a leader in Active Defense, announced today Illusive Active Defense for Microsoft Defender for Endpoint. The integrated solution is one of the first complete market offerings that combines active defense countermeasures, anomaly-based detection, and automated response in a single user interface that aligns with both the MITRE ATT&CK and MITRE SHIELD Active Defense frameworks. Today's prevalent, sophisticated cyberattacks are wreaking havoc across industries. Human-operated attacks use effective techniques to gain a beachhead within an organization, blending in with "normal" user behavior that can go undetected as the attackers harvest any available privileged identities and then move laterally with precision towards high-value assets. Additional approaches are needed to protect privileged identities and endpoints, and automated response is needed to contain the threat before data and assets are taken hostage. The combined Illusive and Microsoft endpoint security offering provides complete detection coverage and faster ability to contain human-operated attack campaigns. There are three components to this solution:
Guy Rosenthal, Director of Product Management, Illusive, said: "Human-Operated attacks continue to grow in sophistication and are often beyond the capabilities of security teams to detect until it is too late. The integrated solution of Illusive Active Defense and Microsoft Defender fills in the gaps that other security tools leave, creating a stronger and faster detection & response workflow, to more thoroughly protect an organization's critical digital assets." Biran Franco, Principal PM Manager, Microsoft Defender for Endpoint, Microsoft, said: "Microsoft and Illusive have collaborated to present a comprehensive solution that combines MITRE ATT&CK and MITRE SHIELD Active Defense frameworks. Illusive insights and detections, combined with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint helps discover malicious activity, stop human-operated attacks, and give customers much needed confidence in an uncertain world."
