Stronger Protection with Intrinsic Security

Cloud native endpoint and workload protection 

 

Carbon Black is Transforming Security Through Big Data and Analytics in the Cloud

Growing trends in mobility and cloud have made the endpoint the new perimeter. New and emerging attacks are beating traditional defenses, and security teams are too reactive and held back by their technologies.

Carbon Black is leveraging the power of big data and analytics to solve the challenges surrounding endpoint security. With the CB Predictive Security Cloud platform, we are transforming cybersecurity to deliver a new generation of cloud-delivered security solutions designed to protect against the most advanced threats.

Carbon Black Predictive Security Cloud
The CB Predictive Security Cloud is Carbon Black’s converged endpoint protection platform delivering next-generation security and IT operations services through the cloud. It applies big data analytics across all endpoints to make predictions about — and provide protection from — current, future, and unknown attacks.

Experience the Difference of Cloud Native Security

Benefits:

  • Modernize your endpoint protection with an endpoint platform that helps you spot the minor fluctuations that hide malicious attacks and adapt prevention in response.
  • The majority of today’s cyberattacks now encompass tactics such as lateral movement, island hopping and destructive attacks. Advanced hacking capabilities and services for sale on the dark web compound the issue. These realities pose a tremendous risk to targets with decentralized systems protecting high-value assets, including money, intellectual property and state secrets.
  • While other endpoint security products only collect a dataset related to what is known bad, we continuously collect endpoint activity data because attackers intentionally try to look normal to hide their attacks. Analyze attackers’ behavior patterns to detect and stop never-seen-before attacks.
  • VMware Carbon Black Cloud consolidates multiple endpoint security capabilities using one endpoint agent and console, cutting the management headaches and console thrashing required when responding to potential incidents. Minimize downtime responding to incidents and return critical CPU cycles back to the business.

Consolidate multiple endpoint security capabilities, and operate faster and more effectively with a single, cloud native platform…

  • Enterprise AV Replacement – Reduce exposure to ongoing threats, move quickly, and fortify your defenses. 
  • Incident Response – Complete investigations in minutes. 
  • Threat Hunting – Preempts destructive attacks. 
  • Risk & Compliance – Ensure compliance with regulatory mandates and mitigate risks. 

The Platform: 

  • Endpoint Standard
    • Prevent more attacks using heuristics, machine learning, device control, and behavioral EDR to analyze endpoint data and uncover malicious activity to stop all types of attacks. 
    • Expedite investigation and response so you can quickly understand the impact of any attacks and take immediate action. 
    • Stay informed with the latest threats with VMware Carbon Black’s in-house team of threat experts. 
    • Maintain performance by automating operational tasks and integrating with your existing tools. 
  • Managed Detection
    • Get peace of mind with contextual data delivered by experts. 
    • Expand your security services with the partner ecosystem. 
  • Audit and Remediation
    • Inspect devices on demand to enable quick and confident decisions that improve security posture. 
    • Carbon Black Cloud Audit and Remediation helps automate reporting on patch levels, user privileges, disk encryption status and more to track configuration drift and maintain the desired state of their environment over time.
    • Security administrators can create a secure remote shell into any protected device to apply updates or run scripts for full remediation in minutes.
  • Enterprise EDR
    • Collect and visualize comprehensive information about endpoint events, to give security professionals unparalleled visibility into their environments.
    • Combine custom and cloud-delivered threat intel, automated watchlist, and integrations with the rest of your security stack to efficiently scale your hunt across even the largest of enterprises.

Advanced Workload Protection for the Modern Data Center

Benefits: 

  1. Reduce the Attack Surface and Harden Workloads – Focus on the most common exploits and high-risk vulnerabilities across your environment and take immediate action with prioritized vulnerability reporting right from the vCenter console. Easily audit current system state to track security posture and harden workloads against attack, while enabling the InfoSec team to collaborate with VI Admins to address known vulnerabilities.

  2. Secure Workloads Against Modern Attacks – An organization’s most valuable assets are found in the data center, yet attackers are increasingly using advanced techniques to bypass traditional security tools and remain undetected for weeks or months. With advanced workload protection from VMware Carbon Black, you can block both known and unknown attacks – including malware, fileless and living-off-the-land attacks.

  3. Increase Visibility Across Your Environment – Gain visibility into operations hygiene, IOCs, TTPs and ordinary events that occur on the system, and understand vulnerability context with risk scores and links to National Vulnerability Database. Evaluate more than 2,000 configuration states on your workloads and run ongoing assessments to track IT hygiene over time. Detect any attack that gets through perimeter defenses and respond before it escalates to a data breach.

  4. Simplify Operations for IT and Security – Consolidate your IT and Security stack by replacing multiple point solutions – including legacy antivirus on servers – with advanced protection that’s built into your existing infrastructure. Eliminate the trade-off between security and operational simplicity by providing a single source of truth for Infrastructure and Security teams to enable collaboration and reduce friction – while accelerating response to critical vulnerabilities and attacks.

Use Cases: 

  1. Vulnerability Management
    1. Overcome performance-intensive scanning by offloading computation to the cloud and leveraging context with Audit & Remediation
    2. Prioritize vulnerabilities based on CVE + real-life exploitability. Increase patching efficiency with best-in-class prioritization that helps you focus on common exploits and high-risk vulnerabilities to reduce the attack surface. Increase patching efficiency by 4x with best-in-class prioritization, built into both Carbon Black Cloud and vCenter.
    3. Increase visibility by integrating the vSphere Client and Carbon Black Cloud console. Make stronger exception cases to compliance teams with on-demand risk metrics.
  2. Enterprise AV Replacement
    1. Help ensure that your endpoint security tools continuously collect all the critical data necessary to conduct immediate and conclusive threat discovery.
    2. Actionable insights save you resources on responding and remediating to attacks. 
    3. VMware Carbon Black Cloud™ empowers you with sophisticated detection combined with custom and cloud native threat intelligence, automated watchlists, and integrations with the rest of your security stack to efficiently scale your hunt across the enterprise. Stay steps ahead of advanced threats.
  3. Risk & Compliance
    1. Reduce liability at all levels with IT audit and risk controls that give you the intelligence needed to accelerate gap analyses by nearly eliminating the pre-compliance data gathering process.
    2. Ensure a state of continuous compliance by showing that security controls are working effectively and in place following any change in your environment with file integrity monitoring and control.
    3. Take a positive and prioritized approach to reducing your organization’s attack surface and addressing regulatory gaps with actionable business intelligence needed for board-level security investment decisions.
