NIST SP 800-53 AU-2 Event Monitoring is a key security control that supports system auditing and ensures continuous monitoring for information assurance and cybersecurity operations. SIEM solutions are typically employed as central tools for these efforts.
NBAD is the continuous monitoring of a network for unusual events or trends. NBAD is an integral part of network behavior analysis (NBA), which offers security in addition to that provided by traditional anti-threat applications such as firewalls, intrusion detection systems, antivirus software and spyware -detection software.
Endpoint detection and response (EDR), also known as endpoint threat detection and response (ETDR), is a cybersecurity technology that continually monitors an "endpoint" (e.g. a client device such as a mobile phone, laptop, Internet of things device) to mitigate malicious cyber threats. [1] [2] [3]
Kali Linux is a Debian-derived Linux distribution designed for digital forensics and penetration testing, formerly known as BackTrack. [2]Parrot Security OS is a cloud-oriented Linux distribution based on Debian and designed to perform security and penetration tests, do forensic analysis, or act in anonymity.
A host-based IDS is capable of monitoring all or parts of the dynamic behavior and the state of a computer system, based on how it is configured.Besides such activities as dynamically inspecting network packets targeted at this specific host (optional component with most software solutions commercially available), a HIDS might detect which program accesses what resources and discover that, for ...
Data loss prevention (DLP) software detects potential data breaches/data exfiltration transmissions and prevents them by monitoring, [1] detecting and blocking sensitive data while in use (endpoint actions), in motion (network traffic), and at rest (data storage). [2] The terms "data loss" and "data leak" are related and are often used ...
Zeek is a free and open-source software network analysis framework. Vern Paxson began development work on Zeek in 1995 at Lawrence Berkeley National Lab. [3] Zeek is a network security monitor (NSM) but can also be used as a network intrusion detection system (NIDS). [4] The Zeek project releases the software under the BSD license.
