Adlumin – Harnessing managed detection and response capabilities seamlessly, without add-ons or hidden pricing complexities

As the volume, variety, and sophistication of cybersecurity threats increase exponentially, organizations struggle to maintain security operations centers staffed with highly skilled personnel and resources. As a result, Managed Detection and Response (MDR) vendors provide a cost-effective menu of services designed to improve an enterprise’s cybersecurity defenses and minimize risk without an upfront cybersecurity investment. MDR services provide higher skill-level analysts utilizing cutting-edge security tools and up-to-the-minute global databases beyond the reach and cost effectiveness of most enterprise budgets, skill levels, and resources. Thus, helping keep pace with continually evolving adversarial tactics and techniques.

Adlumin stands as a groundbreaking cloud-native Managed Detection and Response (MDR) platform, fortified with patented technology. This innovative platform is dedicated to addressing advanced cyber threats, system vulnerabilities, and complex IT operations, providing unparalleled visibility and security. By utilizing state-of-the-art machine learning techniques, Adlumin not only identifies critical threats but also implements automated remediation rules and system updates. Acting as the nerve center for security operations, Adlumin not only stops threats in their tracks but also significantly reduces business risk. Furthermore, it streamlines the compliance process by offering real-time continuous compliance reporting, ensuring that businesses can operate securely and efficiently in today's dynamic cybersecurity landscape.

The Adlumin MDR Platform

Most technologies or managed services providers give you partial visibility or bare-minimum management resources. Adlumin MDR++ Platform includes 100% XDR capabilities and modules to shed light on your security journey and a team that’s with you every step forward. Use the Adlumin platform to build the foundation of your SOC. Empower your enterprise with 360-degree visibility and prioritization at machine-learning speeds to bring maximum illumination to your security operations. The platform streamlines data ingestion, analysis, and compliance workflows throughout your enterprise — illuminating unseen cyber threats, system vulnerabilities, and IT operations, so your path to response and compliance becomes clear. It is designed to give you as much power as you need, when you need it, where you need it — without up-charging you for critical modules. Unbound by your technology, Adlumin gets to know your environment, what’s normal, and what’s not. You don’t have to spend time writing rules. The company deploys in minutes, no matter your architecture or technology, without relying on any hardware or software integrations. Adlumin collects and indexes data from any source imaginable – network traffic, web servers, VPNs, firewalls, custom applications, application servers, hypervisors, GPS systems, and pre-existing structured databases. Then their platform compares it all to command authority and tells you if anything is abnormal.

Managed Detection and Response Solutions Offered

Total Ransomware Defense: Ransomware is one of the biggest threats facing the cybersecurity industry today. The magnitude of its danger continues to increase by the day, leaving organizations around the country vulnerable. Adlumin is a Managed Security Services platform that protects against ransomware attacks through its new product, Total Ransomware Defense (TRD). TRD provides your network with multi-layer protection, eliminating the success of a ransomware attack at each layer. Adlumin’s Total Ransomware Defense combines industry-leading intelligence sources with the first pre-execution convolutional neural network trained solely on ransomware. The pre-execution layer leverages several external threat feeds, proprietary data feeds, and machine learning to offer an instant response for known harmful ransomware. Suspicious processes that are not “known bad” are then passed to the additional layers for further analysis.

Proactive Defense: Adlumin’s Proactive Defense Program empowers employees with the skills to identify and report suspicious activity, which is the best defense against cyber adversaries delivering attacks through convincing campaigns and phishing lures. Adlumin, in partnership with KnowBe4, has the expertise to facilitate and operate a customized security awareness training program in line with their security operation center services. All security awareness training program reports and analytics are visible, available, and actionable through Adlumin’s managed detection and response platform.

Continuous Vulnerability Management: Continuous Vulnerability Management enables customers to automatically detect vulnerabilities and critical misconfigurations per CIS benchmarks, broken out by asset. Misconfigurations, unlike vulnerabilities, do not have formal CVE IDs associated, which can leave assets out of compliance and vulnerable to attack. It identifies critical vulnerabilities and misconfigurations on the industry’s widest range of devices, operating systems, and applications.
