Attack Detection: A Shield for Your IT Infrastructure
What is meant by attack detection?
Attack detection involves all measures and technologies aimed at identifying unauthorized or harmful activities within the network. The goal is to detect attacks as early as possible, analyze them, and initiate appropriate countermeasures. Various systems are employed for attack detection – from Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) to deception-based technologies.
Classical Systems for Intrusion Detection
Conventional systems for intrusion detection, such as IDS and SIEM, continuously analyze network traffic and compare observed activities with known attack patterns or behavioral profiles.
Common detection methods:
- Signature-based detection effective against known attacks – compares data with a database of known threat patterns.
- Behavioral Detection Identifies anomalies in user behavior, even with previously unknown attack patterns.
- AI-assisted detection uses machine learning to identify complex threats in real time.
These technologies provide a stable foundation for IT security but reach their limits when faced with targeted and particularly subtle attacks (e.g., Advanced Persistent Threats).
Modern Attack Detection with Deception Technology
An especially innovative form of attack detection relies on deception technology – a proactive, deception-based approach. This involves strategically placing bait and decoys within the corporate network that closely resemble real systems.
Benefits of Deception-Based Attack Detection:
No false alarms
Only attackers interact with the lures – every access triggers a secure alarm.
Detection of Silent Attacks
Even inconspicuous attackers are detected before they can cause harm.
Invisible Protection
Attackers do not know where deception resources are located - this increases efficiency.
Lower Maintenance Effort
No complex rules, no signature databases, easy integration.
