New platform can use any data source to gain visibility into attacks

A security breach can involve many different elements, this means that analyzing attacks can be a complex and difficult task.

Security analytics specialist Niara is launching a new version of its security analytics platform that can analyze any data source and supports the customization of behavioral analytics modules, providing organizations with complete visibility into attacks and risky behaviors inside their environments.

"By making behavioral analytics modular and data-agnostic, Niara enables data sources, machine learning models and features to be easily combined to better isolate attacks and identify risky behaviors," says Sriram Ramachandran, CEO and co-founder of Niara. "That flexibility results in much richer Entity360 risk profiles, allowing attacks to be detected with greater precision and dramatically reducing the time and skill needed to investigate and respond to security events".

It allows organizations to derive security insights from data sources by combining Niara's built-in behavioral analytics with custom modules unique to a particular environment. As a result, organizations can benefit from more comprehensive risk profiles and extensive information about attacks due to the breadth of Niara's multi-dimensional analytics. Analysis includes factors like privilege escalation, password sharing, credential violations, lateral movement, internal reconnaissance, abnormal access to high-value resources, command and control and exfiltration activities.
