CyberFlood solution adds automated
Reconnaissance Mode to mirror actual hacker behaviors
BLACK HAT USA-- Spirent Communications plc (LSE:SPT), a
leading provider of test, measurement, assurance, and analytics
solutions for next-generation devices and enterprise networks,
today announced that at Black Hat USA in Las Vegas (August 7-8) it
will demonstrate a number of new capabilities in its CyberFlood
Data Breach Assessment solution and preview new use cases for
security assessment in 5G networks.
The new Reconnaissance Mode feature in CyberFlood Data Breach
Assessment mirrors the activity of an actual hacker to identify the
processes, services and applications that comprise an enterprise
network security zone and then automatically creates specific and
accurate assessments based on that information. The new feature
will be demonstrated for the first time at Black Hat (booth #2404),
where Spirent will also preview new CyberFlood use cases for
security assessment in 5G networks.
CyberFlood is a powerful, automated solution that generates
realistic application traffic and security threats within live or
production networks, providing organizations with a continual
security assessment of their enterprise network infrastructures.
Unlike assessment solutions that simulate attacks, CyberFlood uses
actual attack components, true hacker activity, and malware
executables accessed through continually updated threat
intelligence services to validate an organization’s vulnerability
to cybercrime.
At Black Hat, Spirent will also showcase:
- The unique ability of CyberFlood to assess and recommend
policy, rule, and heuristics changes to security or network
infrastructure in real-time recommendations based on
vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and other security weaknesses
discovered during ongoing CyberFlood network assessment;
- The advantages of the NetSecOPEN test suite incorporation into
CyberFlood, allowing organizations to easily use the full breadth
of NetSecOPEN’s open network security and performance test standard
methodologies to assess their security systems;
- The on-premises version of Spirent’s upcoming SecurityLabs
vulnerability assessment and management platform, which provides
up-to-the-minute security assessments of an organization’s entire
attack surface - without the need for specialized testing personnel
- by automatically managing, monitoring, and evaluating ongoing
vulnerability and penetration testing; and
- Smart City hack demonstrations of the vulnerability of
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) infrastructure or
Industrial Control Systems (ICS) to attackers, who could infiltrate
and hijack these critical systems while operators in a control room
remain unaware of any threat.
