Silobreaker unveils new Brand Threat Protection and Managed Takedown Service

Silobreaker, a leading security and threat intelligence firm, today announced a new Brand Threat Protection managed service, capable of safeguarding companies from digital threats and brand reputation risk.

From online brand abuse and phishing attacks to fake social media profiles and mobile app clones, brands have never been under more pressure to protect themselves and their customers from constant attack. Unfortunately, the process of manually identifying and stopping brand abuse events is extremely time-consuming, even for larger organisations, and requires tools and relationships with service providers that are in short supply.

Silobreaker’s Brand Threat Protection managed service enables enterprises to act faster against brand abuse. Monitoring 24/7 for spoof websites, typosquatting attacks and phishing campaigns, the service automates detection and incident tracking while streamlining takedowns through an intuitive cloud-based threat platform.

On top of active brand abuse monitoring, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, Silobreaker’s new capabilities include a highly efficient, managed takedown service for abusive sites, apps, profiles and malware hosting, supported by a team of human experts. Faster takedowns not only reduce the risk of customers or employees falling victim to phishing, but shortens the exposure created by actors abusing a brand’s reputation. With the UK National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) reporting that manual takedown requests can take days or even weeks to process, fast and effective brand abuse takedowns are critical.

“Brands are being exploited by bad actors in online marketplaces through phishing attacks, spoof websites and even fake surveys. And when consumers fall victim to these scams, they hold brands responsible,” said Kristofer Mansson, CEO of Silobreaker. “Brand reputation and trust are critical to a business’s success, and with Silobreaker’s new capabilities for fully managed 24/7 threat hunting, detection and takedown of brand-based threats, enterprises can ensure their customers – and their brands – are protected.”

Silobreaker’s Brand Threat Protection is further enhanced by its powerful intelligence platform that goes beyond traditional brand protection to collect and aggregate intelligence data across open-source and commercial feeds, internal and dark web sources, and leading independent providers. Silobreaker users can create queries and dashboards to identify phishing campaigns targeting their company and their industry – including competitors – with round-the-clock information on who is being targeted and what compromises have occurred.

Silobreaker’s analytic tools also provide the full context of each phishing vulnerability and how it relates to current threats, enabling organisations to prioritise risks and take strategic action. Silobreaker’s platform also enables businesses to monitor for stolen credentials on popular paste sites and deep and dark web marketplaces, with alerts set to notify whenever an organisation is mentioned.

Whether it’s phishing campaigns, data or credential leaks, or other cyber vulnerabilities, the combination of Brand Threat Protection and the comprehensive intelligence features delivered by Silobreaker’s platform ensures that brands stay one step ahead of malicious actors and threats.

Mandiant and SentinelOne integrate, enriching XDR with threat intelligence

SentinelOne, an autonomous cybersecurity platform company, has announced an integration with Mandiant to improve threat detection, triage, hunting, and response processes. SentinelOne’s Singularity XDR platform coupled with Mandiant’s threat intelligence and incident response expertise enables organisations to face the increasing threats of today’s cyber landscape with machine speed technology and services.

As threat actors continually deploy new malware strains and attack techniques, it becomes increasingly difficult for even the most experienced IT and security professionals to run cybersecurity programmes. Many organisations are now turning to Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platforms that stream data from multiple security as well as IT tools into a new kind of cybersecurity data platform, where the data is correlated and actioned, providing a more comprehensive view of an organisation’s security posture. The SentinelOne-Mandiant integration enriches Singularity XDR, adding Mandiant’s market-renowned threat intelligence, resulting in a comprehensive solution for detecting, investigating, and responding to incidents, reducing the costs of incident response and improving security postures.

“Our technology delivery of open XDR gives customers the flexibility and choice they deserve when building an XDR strategy – and our business model supports, instead of competes, with our partners,” said Raj Rajamani, Chief Product Officer, SentinelOne. “Harnessing the synergies between Singularity Storyline and Mandiant’s Threat Intelligence delivers even faster triage, root-cause analysis and actionability to every platform alert. With SentinelOne identifying threats and Mandiant providing the context and intel necessary for quick triage and remediation, organisations are equipped to defend themselves against the evolving threat landscape.”

Through the joint solution, suspicious activity and alerts are automatically enriched with threat intelligence from Mandiant, including malicious or benign verdicts, risk scores, threat actor profiles, indicators (IOCs), and links to deeper intelligence within the Mandiant Threat Advantage platform. Analysts can access at-a-glance context from Mandiant saving valuable time during incident triage. Key benefits of the SentinelOne-Mandiant integration include:

  • Automated incident triage: SentinelOne incidents are automatically enriched with context and intelligence from Mandiant Threat Intelligence
  • Streamlined threat hunting: Query and pivot on IOCs from emerging threats within SentinelOne Singularity
  • Accelerated detection and response: Autonomously discover and remediate threats with Indicators of Compromise from Mandiant
  • No-code simplicity: Combine best-of-breed solutions with no complex coding or configuration
The integration is currently in early access and will become generally available in Q4 2022 via SentinelOne’s Singularity Marketplace. For more information, visit www.sentinelone.com.
