Integrations with SIEM and SOAR to cut down on alert fatigue and de-duplication of events

The key to all of this is bringing all that information together and being able to react at network speed to protect and/or isolate threats in order to recover from them and stay resilient. That's the beauty of the solution we're currently developing here in New York with IronNet.

Protecting New York’s critical infrastructure

To build a unified defense strategy, NYPA enlisted IronNet to create the Cybersecurity Collective Defense Consortium (CCDC) to protect the New York state energy ecosystem. The CCDC runs on AWS.

As we work with IronNet and our other partners, I look forward to more international companies joining us in the spirit of Collective Defense...to give companies more situational awareness of what’s happening around the globe and address threats collectively.

Keeping the lights on
with Collective Defense

While Southern Company maintains a mature cybersecurity posture, the role of its security leadership is to ensure that the company is always anticipating and planning for the next attempt to compromise its facilities and services. Southern Company invested in its partnership with IronNet to increase its ability to detect Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), reduce dwell time and more quickly recover in the event of an attack.

2021: The year of ransomware

Look back at the most impactful event and trends in cybersecurity during 2021 inside IronNet’s Annual Threat Report.

Closing the cyber talent gap for energy

As one midwestern energy company has experienced in recent years, the global cyber talent gap is taking a toll. This IronNet customer relies on its relatively small SOC to carry the cyber torch and meet the energy needs of more than 1.6 million customers.
IronNet-Ransomware Attack-Catching Ransomware Thumbnail
White paper

Ransomware attacks are always enabled by network connectivity to some degree: delivery, lateral movement/ spreading, command-and-control (C2), etc. Early detection of the initial network intrusion, therefore, is crucial, before the adversary has the chance to advance the ransomware campaign.

In other words, ransomware is the very last step an attacker takes after fully compromising a network to monetize their efforts.

Discover how to catch ransomware campaigns early with NDR.
