Your corporate credentials and cloud accounts are the keys to your business, making them a valuable target for bad actors.
Let's meet Renee. She typically logs into her corporate account around 8:00 in the morning from the San Francisco office location. The SOC team had received an alert from Abnormal that suspicious behavior was detected with Renee's account. A login event was detected from Microsoft Azure, originating from Hong Kong, which is thousands of miles from the San Francisco office, at around 2:01 pm.
Abnormal can determine when legitimate end users have accessed accounts, or when a bad actor has accessed them, by understanding key attributes like common IP addresses, or if the device has been accessed from another browser or operating system, or even items like too-fast-to-travel location signals.
In this case, she's never visited Hong Kong, and these signals indicate that Renee's account is being used from two locations at once, which is a critical indicator of a compromised account. In the example of Renee, Abnormal automatically executed a remediation playback via APIs that opened a ticket within ServiceNow and signed out of all active sessions, locked Renee's account, and reset the password.
This prevented a potentially serious security brief. And that's not all.
Since organizations are only as secure as their partners within the supply chain, Abnormal's VendorBase scans past emails to identify all your suppliers, partners, and vendors and continuously monitors them for risk by gathering signals across the entire enterprise ecosystem. It gives security teams complete visibility into all their vendors' security postures, their relationships within the organization, past compromises observed, a timeline of activity, and more.
End users are automatically protected from compromised vendor accounts and supply chain attacks. All attachments are scanned for suspicious information, such as modified banking details that are different from those typically associated with the vendor. This continuous monitoring of the vendor to assess risk scores through VendorBase ensures all Abnormal customers are safe from this compromised vendor account.
