Dtex Systems Announces Intercept 6.0 - Industry's First Next Generation Human-Centric Insider Threat Management SolutionDtex Systems, the Workforce Cyber Intelligence CompanyTM, today announced the release of Intercept 6.0, the industry's only Next-Generation Insider Threat Management solution. Dtex Intercept 6.0 is a first-of-its-kind Insider Threat Management solution that delivers always-on, human-centric security by proactively illuminating dangerous activity as 'Indicators of Intent' in real-time across the entire organization, both uncovering malicious and negligent behavior well before an incident occurs, and providing a full audit trail after without invading employee privacy. "Next Generation cybersecurity is defined by an unyielding focus on the most important element of a business's ability to operate effectively and safely - the human factor," said Mohan Koo, Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer at Dtex Systems. "The enterprise workforce's behavior, habits and interactions ultimately determine opportunities and threats, how and where risks emerge and if compliance mandates are met. We've built Intercept 6.0 to do what prior-generation EPP, SIEM or Insider Threat Management solution are unable to do… allow executives, IT and cyber-security practitioners to easily see, understand and act on contextual technical and behavioral intelligence to stop insider threats, prevent data loss, and protect the workforce, wherever they may be." Insider threats continue to be a top security, risk and compliance concern for every organization, regardless of size or industry. Investments in point solutions and reliance on modules from SIEM and EPP platforms are falling short as evidenced by the increasing number of high-profile data breaches caused by malicious and negligent employees and consultants. These solutions are simply not engineered to monitor and surveil the most critical and common denominator in every business activity: the humans powering the day-to-day operations, especially as organizations adopt virtual, work from home business models and digital transformation accelerates. According to Gartner (News - Alert), one of the keys to success in building an Insider Threat Management Program is to "determine risky behavioral patterns, using past incidents and cross functional input, and correlate the technical as well as behavioral threat indicators to analyze each incident in its full context."[1] Powered by Dtex's patent pending DMAP+ Technology, Intercept 6.0 continuously collects and synthesizes more than 500 unique elements of enterprise telemetry from data, machines, applications and people to surface dynamic 'Indicators of Intent' that combine to deliver holistic, contextual awareness about an enterprise workforce's activities. These elements are enriched in near real-time using advanced behavioral models that are mapped against a person's normal activity and peer group baselines. Dtex's cloud-based predictive analytics engine continuously processes, scores and stacks 'Indicators of Intent' to stream live status updates, trend analysis and, when required, trigger notifications of abnormal activity that deviate from baselines and indicate elevated risks to an interactive, all-in-one dashboard for forensic investigation, protctive action and cross-functional reporting. "Dtex Intercept is the only security platform I use to see, understand and act on threats to our IP. Not only does Intercept tell me who's doing what, when and how but it gives me a holistic, context-rich forensic record of what happened before and after an indicator of malicious or negligent insider behavior so I can eliminate the threat before data is exfiltrated," said Graeme Hackland, CIO with Williams F1 Racing. "We evaluated five Insider Threat Management solutions against a weighted criteria of 13 must have capabilities including user behavior monitoring within specialty engineering applications and a collector that was invisible to employees. Dtex was the only solution that gave us those light-weight collection capabilities and the visibility we needed to support our mission-critical operational requirements." The next-generation insider threat management features and design innovations that combine to make Dtex Intercept 6.0 unique include: Contextual Workforce Cyber Intelligence Intercept 6.0 employs lightweight forwarders and a cloud-based correlation engine to deliver unmatched visibility, monitoring, surveillance, forensic and investigative capabilities against technical and behavioral indicators to SOC and IR teams frustrated with gigabytes of data and hundreds of disparate alerts.
Enterprise Scalability Measured in Hours Unlike other solutions that are restrained to only analyzing people or devices of interest once identified by human analysts, Dtex Intercept 6.0 was purpose-built to scale and protect the entire organization up to millions of users, endpoints and servers continuously
Employee Privacy and GDPR Compliance Security doesn't need to come at the expense of privacy. Dtex puts privacy first, offering patented anonymization that obscures all identifying data from user behavior intelligence collection to ensure a positive organization culture and GDPR compliance.
