Behavioral Analytics
As man-in-the-middle and phishing attacks become more common, security teams cannot rely only on password authentication for identity verification. This is where behavior analytics comes in, along with MFA. It leverages historic and real-time data to examine trends, patterns, and habits in user workflows. So, whenever a user or user’s device deviates from the standard workflows, behavior analytics solutions flag the activity and take necessary measures to avoid cyber risks. This enables a context-aware workflow in cyber risk management. Startups develop such solutions using machine learning or advanced analytics that alert IT teams upon detecting suspicious activities in their networks. Since the control of insider threat management is minimal, this risk-based approach significantly reduces data leaks from people within organizations.
Neosec offers Application Security
Neosec is a US-based startup that builds an application security platform. It leverages AI to collect and analyze data from application programming interfaces (APIs) for investigations and threat hunting. The platform’s behavioral analytics interprets normal and abnormal usage to detect misconfigurations, misuse, and business logic abuse. This enables IT admins to collect context-specific information and quickly respond to threats.
