Compare Fidelis Network vs. MITRE ATT&CK

To effectively identify sophisticated threats, it is essential to conduct thorough inspection, extraction, and real-time analysis of all types of content traversing the network. Fidelis' network detection and response technology systematically scans all ports and protocols in both directions, gathering extensive metadata that serves as the foundation for robust machine-learning analytics. By utilizing sensors for direct, internal, email, web, and cloud communications, you achieve comprehensive network visibility and coverage. The tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) of identified attackers are aligned with the MITRE ATT&CK™ framework, enabling security teams to proactively address potential threats. While threats may attempt to evade detection, they ultimately cannot escape. You can automatically profile and categorize IT assets and services, including enterprise IoT devices, legacy systems, and shadow IT, to create a detailed map of your cyber landscape. Furthermore, when combined with Fidelis' endpoint detection and response offering, you obtain a software asset inventory linked to known vulnerabilities, such as CVE and KB references, along with an assessment of security hygiene concerning patches and the status of endpoints. This comprehensive approach equips organizations with the tools needed to maintain a resilient cybersecurity posture.

MITRE ATT&CK® serves as a comprehensive, publicly-accessible repository detailing the tactics and techniques employed by adversaries, grounded in actual observations from the field. This repository acts as a crucial resource for shaping targeted threat models and strategies across various sectors, including private enterprises, government agencies, and the broader cybersecurity industry. By establishing ATT&CK, MITRE is advancing its commitment to creating a safer world through collaborative efforts aimed at enhancing cybersecurity efficacy. The ATT&CK framework is freely available to individuals and organizations alike, making it an invaluable tool for improving security practices. Adversaries often engage in active reconnaissance scans to collect pertinent information that aids in their targeting efforts, utilizing direct network traffic to probe victim infrastructure rather than employing indirect methods. This proactive approach to gathering intelligence underscores the importance of vigilance in cybersecurity to counter such tactics effectively.
