Manufacturing

Manufacturing

The Manufacturing industry is fast-paced in nature and uses a large number of technological equipment, but devices are often outdated and not designed to increase security, which makes them perfect targets for cyber attackers.

At Talion, we work with Manufacturers to help them assess their current security posture and face their potential threats head on. With our Managed Detection & Response (MDR) service, our team of analysts ensure sensitive information of supply chains and trade secrets is safe, so delivery and execution can continue without the risk of disruption.

According to an IBM report, Manufacturing companies account for nearly a quarter of all ransomware attacks – the highest targeted industry.

We provide cyber security for…

Leading Manufacturers

We are best positioned to support the cyber security needs of the Manufacturing sector as we already work with leading brands in Food & Drink, Infrastructure and more.

Manufacturers are the drive of consumerism, and civilian reliance on their expertise and delivery means any disruption has wide-reaching effects on society, not just the organisation itself. We saw this occur with meat supplier JBS meats when their operations were temporarily shut down across multiple continents and they paid an $11 million ransom in the hopes of resolving it.

As a result, cybersecurity for Manufacturers cannot be overlooked – cyber attackers will go to the extremes of accessing Industrial Control Systems (ICS) and holting operations at the company if they’re able to – and if that’s what will get them a ransom reward.Talion is a dedicated 24/7 security partner that ensures you’re alerted of suspicious activity, before attackers infiltrate your sensitive data and take control of your systems. With a combination of Threat Intelligence to foreshadow potential risk and an array of specific services to suit your needs, such as MPDR, we ensure your creation, execution and delivery of goods is streamlined and safe from disruption.

Customer Success Stories.

Sometimes, we discover the vulnerabilities of a network simply during routine monitoring, and this was certainly the case with one of our customers in the Utilities industry.

The customer’s industrial control system was highly insecure, potentially granting admin control and access without authentication to any third party. What’s more, passwords for all users were universally visible, potentially opening up further avenues for cyber attack.

We notified the customer as soon as possible, who then liased with their system provider, insisting that security measures were updated and best practices were implemented. By identifying this vulnerability, any potential cyber attack was cleanly avoided.

“Manufacturers are often left in the difficult position where their technological equipment is good enough to execute tasks, but not secure enough to ward off cyber attackers, and this is where a decision has to be made. Is it worth taking the leap by investing in a security provider? If it keeps your data safe and your delivery streamlined, it has to be.”

– Mike Brown, CEO at Talion

Why Talion?

We provide all the tools, people, and processes to monitor and detect attacks before real damage is done.

Automate remediation

Quickly remove devices or systems from the network before they can cause damage.

Investigate & detect threats rapidly

Network traffic analysis improves network traffic visibility and in turn delivers rapid investigation and threat detection.

Understand your threat coverage

Our proprietary Threat Coverage Modelling enables customers to understand their security monitoring coverage in the context of the methods a cyber attacker would use.

Expose new threats

Using our data lake capabilities and our analysts skilled knowledge of how threat actors work we can perform automated and manual threat hunts across our entire data set.

Detect anomalous user behaviour fast

User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA) utilises machine learning and artificial intelligence to detect anomalous user behaviour that may pose an insider threat.

Understand the threat of high-risk insiders

Enhanced user monitoring detects the threats posed by high-risk insiders.

Whatever your business needs, we have a solution that will fit them.

Ensuring threat coverage.

From Threat Coverage Modelling to Threat Hunting and Enhanced User Monitoring, our team of experts ensure we have you covered from all angles..

Threat Coverage Modelling

Talion’s TCM tool provides our clients with a view of how well their security monitoring aligns to the MITRE ATT&CK framework. TCM provides a coverage map for hundreds of threat actors or malware, including hundreds of techniques and sub-techniques—from types of scripts/shells to services exploited and evasion methods. Threat coverage is not a black and white exercise so we tell you to what degree you are covered, usually as a percentage, the TCM tool is then used on an ongoing basis to assess and improve your threat coverage.

TCM’s MITRE ATT&CK focus allows security teams to make informed decisions which are objective and independent of a security vendor’s view.

TCM provides security teams with a touchstone for establishing and defining an effective protection and monitoring strategy. By mapping the MITRE ATT&CK framework, attacks and sources customers can identify the most common techniques and use these as a basis to define protective moniitoring improvements or to validate the moniroting they have in place at any point in time. TCM focusses on the latest tactics, techniques and procedures used by attackers meaning that Talion’s customers can

  • improve their monitoring, detection and response capability
  • ensure they invest more effectively and protect their businesses against the threats that matter

Threat Hunting

Threat Hunting is the practice of proactively searching for threats on a network by detecting anomalies in normal user and network behaviour. This approach to cyber security is driven by the premise that it is impossible to prevent every single intrusion on a client’s estate. This approach drives the two main objectives for Threat Hunting:

1. Identify previously unknown or ongoing threats

2. Gain a deeper understanding of the client’s technical landscape to provide additional security value

Using our Azure based data lake capabilities and our analysts skilled knowledge of how threat actors work we can perform automated and manual threat hunts across entire data sets. Threat Hunting is designed to complement our existing monitoring services.

Enhanced User Monitoring

Talion’s Enhanced User Monitoring (EUM) service is a flexible service that monitors threats from employees and end users who may pose a particular risk to the business. The EUM service provides custom detection content from Talion to detect atypical user behaviour of User Entities of Interest. Where possible the Custom Detection Content is mapped and referenced to the MITRE ATT&CK Framework.

The EUM service is designed to provide enhanced user monitoring for two types of user:

  • Insider Threat Group – Users who pose a threat due to their employment situation.
  • Critical Users Group – Heightened monitoring for important employees who hold positions of power, influence or knowledge within the organisation or are working in high-risk environments.
