Secureworks Brings AI-Powered Threat Prevention and Detection To The Network With Taegis NDR

Secureworks data, as measured across the company's global customer base, shows that Taegis NDR can block 99% of malicious activity identified on the network. With threat actors obfuscating their behavior, legacy network controls such as IDPs and firewalls are no longer able to keep pace or offer sufficient protection against evolving adversarial tactics. Organizations need a multi-layered cybersecurity strategy. Taegis NDR provides a complete picture of all internal traffic moving between endpoints as well as traffic entering and exiting the network at the edge. This visibility is crucial to identifying the presence of threat actors and how they are moving within the network. When integrated with the Taegis XDR platform, NDR correlates telemetry across different threat vectors to detect adversarial behavior that would otherwise be analyzed in silos and potentially missed.  

"Taegis NDR empowers us to proactively mitigate cyber risks to our business," said Steve Hey, Senior Vice President of Information Technology, Infrastructure, and Operations, National 9/11 Memorial & Museum. "It adds an extra layer of intelligence that fortifies our cyber defenses. When Taegis NDR sends us an alert, I know there's an issue so I can quickly assign my resources to tackle it and protect our business."

Managed centrally in the Taegis Platform, Taegis NDR is updated continuously with curated countermeasures based on global real-world threat intelligence to protect customer networks from the latest attack vectors. Its AI engine analyzes network traffic for anomalous application and port usage, identifying potential internal and external threats before they can cause harm, such as data exfiltration or ransomware attacks. Automated response actions fuel faster and more accurate response times. Lastly, customers don't have the burden of managing endless rules and signatures, saving them time and resources that can be deployed elsewhere.

"Network connected devices represent an opportunity for cyber criminals, as few organizations have the central governance, and strong policies, to ensure 100% up-to-date coverage at the endpoint. Threat actors continue to develop stealthy and evasive techniques to enter networks, that if not detected, inflict serious operational and financial damage on an organization," said Kyle Falkenhagen, Chief Product Officer, Secureworks. "Companies need a layered cybersecurity defense, but many lack the resources and expertise to execute on this strategy. Taegis NDR solves this challenge, optimally delivering reliable network protection. By integrating into the Taegis platform, we can provide partners and customers with a more streamlined and cost-effective, yet holistic, solution for reducing their cyber risk."
