Ransomware execution
In addition to detecting known ransomware through signature-based methods, real-time execution is identified using advanced behavioral analytics and AI. For example, XDR Managed Endpoint Security detects unauthorized file encryption, security feature disablement, and unusual file creation. With these insights, it can catch ransomware, block execution, and even roll back changes if detected after initial activity.
Application misuse
The XDR Managed Endpoint Security behavioral AI engine, which is not limited by the requirement for cloud analysis, monitors kernel-level processes in real time to identify application misuse, including privilege escalation, fileless attacks, and unauthorized script execution.
Even if the behavior is new, machine learning and historical data distinguish legitimate application activities from malicious use. It provides XDR SOC analysts with a visual and contextual overview of related processes and actions, enabling misuse detection and improved incident response.
Remote code execution
XDR Managed Endpoint Security detects and stops remote code execution (RCE) attacks by continuously monitoring kernel-level processes. The Behavioral AI Engine can identify irregularities that could be signs of RCE attempts, like unauthorized code execution. Malicious activity is quickly detected and eliminated.
Fileless attacks
Instead of conventional file-based scanning, XDR Managed Endpoint Security uses sophisticated behavioral AI techniques to detect fileless attacks by monitoring malicious activity in memory. We examine script executions, processes, and unusual activity that deviates from typical patterns top detect and stop malicious processes.
Crypto mining
Machine learning capabilities identify abnormal behavioral patterns consistent with mining activity. Real-time monitoring detects actions indicative of unauthorized crypto mining activity, such as connections to known mining pools, excessive resource consumption, and the termination of competing processes on a system. Malicious processes are automatically terminated before serious harm is done.
Command shell activity
Command shell activity is identified using heuristic and behavioral analysis that points to malicious or unauthorized shell use, such as odd command-line operations, scripting, or administrative actions. Using Barracuda’s proprietary detection rules, XDR Managed Endpoint Security checks for actions like running memory scripts, bypassing security safeguards, or triggering unauthorized system modifications.
