With cyberattacks growing in scale and complexity, it has never been more difficult to figure out where to invest your time and defensive resources. This remains the core challenge of optimizing an effective security organization. A good prioritization approach should be data-driven, and informed by real attacker activity.
Following CrowdStrike’s strong performance in the first-ever MITRE ATT&CK® Evaluations for Security Managed Services Providers with 99% detection coverage, we take a deep dive into the testing process and how our elite managed services operate in the real world. We recently announced CrowdStrike achieved 99% detection coverage in the inaugural MITRE ATT&CK Evaluations for Security Managed Services Providers.
Active Directory (AD) handles sensitive organization data like user credentials, personal information of employees, security permissions, and more. Because of this, AD is prone to being targeted by cyber attackers. Malicious actors are constantly coming up with new attack strategies, making it a challenge for organizations to secure their AD environment. This is why it’s essential that every organization formulates a cyber defense strategy to combat cyber threats and protect their AD.
As innovations in the world of application development and data computation grow every year, the “attack surface” of these technologies grows as well. The attack surface has to be understood from two sides—from the attacker’s side and from the organization being attacked.
