The attack on the Dutch Ministry of Defense began at a Fortigate. Why that should be your concern too. <\/span><\/h2>\n

The MIVD warned of Chinese malware via edge devices. Think your firewall is safe? This attack shows you could be wrong. <\/b><\/p>\n

Recognize the problem<\/b><\/p>\n

Edge devices such as firewalls and VPN servers are often:<\/span><\/p>\n

directly connected to the internet<\/span><\/p>\n

not fully monitored<\/span><\/p>\n

insufficiently patched<\/span><\/p>\n

Vulnerabilities such as CVE-2022-42475 are widely exploited to install Remote Access Trojans (RATs).<\/span><\/p>\n

The solution: NodeZero with RAT threat detection<\/b><\/h2>\n

NodeZero simulates exactly this type of attack:<\/span><\/p>\n

Detects vulnerable edge devices<\/span><\/p>\n

Performs realistic post-exploit RAT-deployments<\/span><\/p>\n

Assesses impact with MITRE ATT&CK methods.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

<\/span><\/div>

shows a detection example of RAT-activity.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

What you’re missing without NodeZero<\/b><\/h2>\n

Real-life simulation of advanced attacks<\/span><\/p>\n

Post-exploit visibility<\/span><\/p>\n

Understanding lateral movements within your network<\/span><\/p>\n

What you gain with NodeZero<\/b><\/h2>\n

Full insight into how attackers get in and stay in<\/span><\/p>\n

Detection of vulnerable edge devices<\/span><\/p>\n

Concrete fixes and risk assessment<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>

Review:<\/b> <\/span><\/h2>\n

\u201cWe thought our network was well protected. NodeZero proved otherwise within 30 minutes.\u201d<\/span><\/h3>\n<\/div>
