Identity Threat Detection & Response
Detect & Respond to SaaS Threats
What is ITDR?
Identity Threat Detection & Response (ITDR) is a set of security measures designed to detect and respond to identity-centric threats. Clear Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) and Unusual User & Entity Behavior Analytics (UEBA) provide forensic signs of a potential breach, such as malware, data breaches and other suspicious events. With the broadest and deepest app coverage in the market, Adaptive Shield’s engines cross-reference and analyze in-context suspicious events from multiple sources, enabling the accurate detection of sophisticated and subtle threats.
Threat prevention through continuous hygiene is key in order to secure the SaaS ecosystem, while ITDR provides an additional, second layer of protection for SaaS applications.
Prevent, Detect and Respond to Threats
With the transition to the cloud, ensuring corporate security has expanded beyond network and perimeter solutions. Business-critical SaaS applications are the new corporate frontier, and defending threats demands an identity-centric approach.
Posture
A breach can originate from poor hygiene, such as inadequate user governance, misconfigurations, 3rd party connected apps, or user devices with low hygiene. As a means of prevention, SSPM should operate as the security layer in the identity fabric to establish robust user governance.
Detection
As an additional layer of defense, ensure threat detection mechanisms are in place to identify IOCs, such as suspicious activities, malicious applications, or changes to security and sensitive configurations.
Response
Once a threat is detected, the security team can immediately respond and initiate an automatic mitigation action based on forensic data provided by Adaptive Shield or connect to any SIEM & SOAR system to streamline the response process.
