Endpoint Agent
ThreatDefence’s DFIR Endpoint Agent provides deep, real-time visibility into endpoint activity, delivering the critical data needed for rapid detection, investigation, and response. Deployed on critical assets, this lightweight agent captures comprehensive system behavior, enabling security teams to quickly uncover malicious activity, understand attack scope, and take decisive action.
Business Benefits:
Accelerates Threat Investigation and Response, by providing immediate, granular visibility into endpoint activity, reducing mean time to detect (MTTD) and mean time to respond (MTTR).
Enables Proactive Threat Hunting, by offering a rich dataset of historical and real-time endpoint events, empowering analysts to uncover hidden threats.
Delivers Comprehensive Forensic Evidence, maintaining a detailed, tamper-resistant record of all system activity for post-incident analysis, regulatory compliance, and legal proceedings.
Strengthens Zero-Trust Security Posture, by continuously monitoring and validating endpoint integrity, enabling immediate enforcement actions when malicious activity is detected.
Simplifies Security Operations, by unifying endpoint monitoring, investigation, and response within a single agent and console, reducing tool sprawl and operational overhead.
How It Works: Deep Endpoint Visibility
Lightweight Data Collection: The agent silently monitors endpoint activity with minimal performance impact, capturing process creation, network connections, file changes, registry modifications, and authentication events.
Real-Time Analysis: Correlates endpoint events with other security data (e.g., network, cloud) to provide context and identify threats.
Automated Response: Integrates with SOAR playbooks to automatically contain threats, such as isolating endpoints or terminating malicious processes.
Centralized Management: All endpoint data is streamed to the ThreatDefence platform for unified analysis, reporting, and action.
What It Captures
Process execution and parent-child relationships
Network connections (inbound and outbound)
File creation, modification, and deletion
Registry changes and system configuration modifications
User logins and authentication events
DLL loading and module interactions
Use Cases
Ransomware Detection: Identify encryption activity and terminate malicious processes before critical data is compromised.
Insider Threat Investigation: Monitor user actions to detect data theft, policy violations, or unauthorized access.
Incident Response: Conduct forensic analysis to determine attack origin, scope, and impact.
Compliance Auditing: Generate detailed reports of endpoint activity for regulatory requirements (e.g., PCI DSS, HIPAA).
Threat Hunting: Proactively search for indicators of compromise (IOCs) and advanced persistent threats (APTs).
Why It Matters
Endpoints are a primary target for attackers, yet many organizations lack the visibility needed to detect and respond to threats quickly. ThreatDefence’s DFIR Endpoint Agent closes this gap by providing deep, continuous insight into endpoint activity. This ensures your team can identify malicious behavior, respond with precision, and maintain a robust security posture across your entire environment.
