In an era where cyber threats are evolving at an unprecedented pace, Secureworks has set a new industry precedent by unveiling an innovative solution that addresses one of the most critical risks in cybersecurity: identity. Today, Secureworks announced the launch of Taegis™ IDR, an advanced identity threat detection and response (ITDR) solution that discovers identity-related risks and misconfigurations in under 90 seconds1.
The Growing Threat of Identity-Based Attacks
Identity has emerged as one of the top access vectors for ransomware attacks. Over the past three years, Secureworks Counter Threat Unit™ (CTU™) has observed a staggering 688% increase in stolen credentials being sold on a single dark web marketplace2. This alarming trend underscores the urgent need for robust identity protection measures. 95% of Microsoft Entra ID environments are misconfigured3, making them prime targets for cybercriminals, and 90% of organizations have experienced an identity breach in the last year4. It's clear that identity threats pose a significant risk to organizations across all sectors.
When it comes to identity attacks, it is imperative that organizations are proactive in their defense strategies. Preventative measures, such as maintaining good security hygiene and strengthening identity security posture before an attack occurs, are equally important as detection and response efforts, which involve monitoring for attacks and stopping them once they are underway. Secureworks Taegis IDR takes this comprehensive approach to managing identity threats, providing prevention, detection, and response.
Introducing Taegis™ IDR
Taegis IDR offers a comprehensive suite of capabilities designed to enhance an organization's identity security posture with unparalleled speed and precision. The innovative solution leverages advanced AI and machine learning to provide real-time detection, prioritization, and response to identity-based threats.
