Overview
Spektion is the first software behavior analytics solution enabling organizations to proactively manage the security of the software they use based on the risks it actually introduces to their environment. It is the first product to inform users of software security risks before they become vulnerabilities or breaches.
It leverages run-time execution data to help security teams address the actual security risk that installed software – both commercial and open source – poses to their organization. Spektion enables security teams to address third-party and software supply chain risks with a solution to quantify and reduce these risks at-scale across the organization.
Spektion scores software based on behavioral risks, which captures pre-CVE security flaws and the true impact if software is exploited. The real-time detections of new software and risks allow for continuous monitoring. Mitigations provided by Spektion for each risk empower security professionals to take a proactive approach to managing their software-based attack surface.
With Spektion, security teams can finally:
– Unify security teams’ program efforts around software security
– Manage software sprawl
– Identify software risk prior to procurement or open-source adoption
– Continuously monitor the risks of their entire software install base
– Convert technical security issues into easy-to-understand risks
– Detect behavior signaling potential supply chain attacks
– Identify and mitigate flaws before they become vulnerabilities
Key Capabilities / Features
Key Benefits:
- Report accurately and continuously on third-party software risk
- Evaluate software for purchase or wider adoption based on hidden, undisclosed risks identified in its behavior
- Get ahead of continuous patching drills for vulnerabilities by identifying and mitigating software security flaws early
- Identify new risks, exploitation events, and supply chain attacks early with real-time alerting on insecure activity in your software
- Reduce risk by implementing compensating controls tailored to issues identified in the software running in an organization
Key Features:
- Fast, flexible deployment model means customers can deploy on a limited number of systems to cover all the software they want to monitor
- Software, identified by version, immediately detected upon install
- Highlighting software and associated risks running with elevated privileges
- Self-service SaaS portal to understand software risk and manage the Spektion implementation
- Dashboards show newly detected risks, historical software security score, and details on a per software or per endpoint basis
- Real-time alerting on newly detected risks along with tailored compensating controls recommendations
How we are different
All Signals, No Noise – Because Spektion provides risk insights and mitigation based on the run-time behavior of software specific to an organization’s environment, security teams aren’t focused on managing potential risks that are unlikely to impact their organization. They can prioritize patch management based on run-time insights that indicate impact of exploitation.
Proactive Risk Management – Because Spektion’s behavioral insights are leading indicators of risk, it enables security teams to identify and mitigate risks before they manifest as CVEs or incidents, so they aren’t forced to rely on reactive patching drills, emergency changes, and incident response.
Software-focused, not Vendor-focused – Spektion enables third-party risk management of commercial software based on the actual security attributes of the software itself, rather than the vendor that sells it.
