Overview
Microsoft Office 365, serving not only as an email platform but also as a repository for sensitive OneDrive and SharePoint documents, including trade secrets, financial records, and customer data, is an attractive target for attackers.
Google Workspace - housing not only email but also a wealth of sensitive data in Drive, Docs, and other applications - is equally enticing.
An MDR (Managed Detection and Response) service is vital to safeguard your Office 365 or Google Workspace instance, ensuring information-rich assets are protected against the advanced tactics of modern cybercriminals.
Software as a Service (SaaS DR) defends against both straightforward and intricate security threats present in 3rd party cloud applications like Microsoft Office 365 and Google Workspace. It addresses attacks including phishing, ransomware, account takeovers, data breaches, and insider threats.
Our SaaS DR solution leverages APIs to collect telemetry for making informed detection and response decisions:
Audit Logs: Detailed user activity logs, including file accesses, downloads, shares, and edits; mailbox activities like email sent, received, and forwarding settings changes
Sign-in Logs: Information on user sign-ins, including successful and failed attempts, which helps in identifying potential unauthorized access attempts or brute-force attacks
Security Alerts: Unusual sign-in activities, potential data breaches, or suspicious activities
Email Analytics: Data related to email flow, including phishing attempts, spam detections, and unusual email sending patterns
Admin Activities: Logs of administrative actions, such as changes in security settings, user permissions, and policy modifications
With this data ingested into our XDR platform, our analytics - enriched 100+ threat intelligence feeds - find the signals that matter, enrich them with contextual information, and present them for Cyber Analyst review, SitRep production, and an appropriate response action.
