Lacework Polygraph provides continuous behavioral anomaly detection for enhanced cloud security.
Incident Response Acceleration: Upon detecting an anomaly, Lacework Polygraph can instantaneously relay the information to Mindflow. This rapid communication allows Mindflow to automatically activate pre-defined incident response workflows, ensuring timely alerts to SOC and SecOps teams and initiating immediate countermeasures using integrated third-party tools.
Infrastructure Monitoring Enhancement: Large enterprises often operate vast cloud infrastructures. With Lacework Polygraph continuously monitoring these environments, Mindflow can enhance oversight by automating routine checks and consolidating data from various sources. This gives a unified view of infrastructure health and security status.
Automated Security Reporting: For organizations where compliance and reporting are crucial, Lacework Polygraph's findings can be automatically channeled through Mindflow to relevant ticketing systems like ServiceNow or Jira. This ensures that all security events are systematically logged, tracked, and reported to the necessary stakeholders.
Employee Endpoint Management: With numerous devices and endpoints in play, ensuring each adheres to security protocols is critical. Lacework Polygraph's detection capabilities and Mindflow's automation can validate endpoint security configurations and immediately address deviations, safeguarding the organization's digital perimeter.
What is Lacework Polygraph?
Lacework Polygraph is the technology behind the Lacework platform, designed specifically for cloud security. This innovative tool offers real-time visibility into workflows, captures the dynamic nature of cloud environments, and identifies potential security threats by studying behavioral patterns. With the rise of cloud infrastructures and services, ensuring security compliance and anomaly detection has become paramount. This is where Lacework Polygraph shines.
Lacework Polygraph's Value Proposition
Security breaches and anomalies can disrupt business operations, leading to financial loss and reputation damage. Lacework Polygraph addresses this by providing automated, end-to-end security and compliance for public cloud environments. By observing behaviors and interactions within the cloud – such as those of processes, applications, and users – the platform detects and flags anomalies that could represent security threats. This proactive approach means identifying and addressing potential issues before they escalate, safeguarding business data and operations.
Who Uses Lacework Polygraph?
The primary beneficiaries of Lacework Polygraph are IT, DevOps, SOC, and SecOps teams. These professionals are often at the forefront of managing and ensuring the security of an organization's cloud infrastructure. Manual monitoring becomes an uphill task, given modern cloud ecosystems' vast and dynamic nature. Lacework Polygraph provides these teams with an automated solution, enabling them to focus on other critical areas of operations while remaining assured of their cloud environment's security.
How Lacework Polygraph Works?
The core functionality of Lacework Polygraph revolves around its deep temporal baseline. This baseline continuously evaluates the behaviors and interactions of various entities within the cloud. The tool can identify activities that deviate from the norm by building a comprehensive behavioral model based on observed patterns. Once an anomaly is detected, the system can automatically trace its root cause, affected entities, and the entire scope of the potential breach. This detailed analysis is then presented to security teams for swift remediation. The visual representation capability of the Polygraph further aids in quickly understanding and pinpointing potential security issues.
