2018 Cyber-Threat Landscape
How do attacks gain a foothold on so many devices without triggering detection? Breaches are occurring in record numbers, inflicting losses of $1.7 million per incident. And breaches are set to increase even more rapidly. The main culprit is the fileless attacks.
Discover the biggest security threats in 2018 in Bitdefender’s mid-year cyber-threat review webinar.
WATCH WEBINARWhy Conventional Security Fails
65% of companies believe they have appropriate in-house security measures in place,
yet 80% had been victims of a successful cyberattack or breach in the previous year,
according to AT&T 2017 Global State of Cybersecurity. Where does conventional security fail?
-
Traditional security focuses on file scanning
Will not detect advance attacks, which leverage fileless techniques
-
Conventional security focuses on prevention
Limited ability to detect, respond or harden the infrastructure
-
Some admins limit security to perimeter defenses
Endpoint security is essential in uncovering attacks that bypass perimeter defenses
-
Some vendors’ sensors are focused on certain regions
Sensors are not geographically balanced and therefore ineffective against ‘outside’ threats
-
Using multiple security agent from different providers
Separate antimalware, exploit or EDR technologies can cause security gaps
-
Admins try to force traditional security onto virtual workloads
Traditional endpoint security was not built for virtualization, causing security gaps and performance issues
Go Beyond Conventional. Discover Layered Next-Generation Defense
All major industry analysts encourage businesses to consider a multi-layer security strategy, that also encompasses next-generation, fileless detection technologies, and deem it essential in ensuring adequate protection against today’s new breed of cyber-threats.
Layered next generation defenses are able to halt attacks in multiple stages, therefore ensuring that every breed of cyber-threats can be stopped before it impacts an organization, without requiring external assistance. Bitdefender displays one of the market’s most comprehensive collection of prevention, detection and response technologies, and features multiple proprietary machine learning algorithms that run powerful dynamic analysis to debunk sophisticated breaches. All Bitdefender technologies were built to work in unison and collaborate any incipient attacks and breach attempts.

Read ESG ReportFrom File To Fileless. A Tectonic Perspective Shift
Powershell, scripts, fileless malware are the new hype tools in an attackers arsenal, due to their impressive ability to gain entrance or maintain persistence inside an organization. Unlike file-based attacks, fileless attacks gain control of your infrastructure without downloading malicious files or writing content to disk and require sophisticated, next-gen security technologies to sniff them out before they can execute the attack.
See how Bitdefender outperforms competition in fileless detection independent test results.

Tunable Machine Learning
Bitdefender boost a proprietary HyperDetect technology that enables next-gen dynamic analysis and customizable machine learning to close the door on fileless attacks, custom malware and zero-days without spiking false positives.
HyperDetect collaborates with Bitdefender’s additional signature-less technologies such as Memory Protection or Advanced Threat Control, and stands out thanks to its unique ability to toggle machine learning aggressiveness towards severe threat categories, such as targeted attacks and exploits.
Beyond NGAV. Security Outside The OS.
Zero-days and kernel-level exploits top the list of the most challenging threats to detect in time to prevent a breach, with prices spiking up to hundreds of thousands of dollars for such advanced exploits on the black market.
Bitdefender introduces a new way to secure against this highly sophisticated attacks with agentless hypervisor introspection, which protect workloads from outside the operating system, where no attacker, no matter how sophisticated, can hide its tracks.
This solution is complementary to any endpoint security solution, and works to enhance security against this high-end breed of attacks
IDC ON HYPERVISOR INTROSPECTION500 Million Global Sensors Network. Effective Worldwide Defenses.
ENISA’s 2017 Cyber Threat Landscape Report singled three Chinese and Russian cyber-espionage groups among the most active and dangerous in 2017. The wider a vendor’s sensor web is, the more effective it is in detecting attacks originating from different parts of the world.
Bitdefender has one of the largest sensor network in the world, with over of 500 million protected endpoints balanced across 150 countries, which enables our technologies to stop attacks originating in any part of the world.
