L'behavioural analysis is a proactive detection method designed to identify suspicious activity by analysing the behaviour patterns of entities (users, systems, applications). Unlike traditional tools based on predefined signatures, this approach establishes a line of normal behaviour and alerts you to significant deviations (e.g. abnormal connections, unusual access to files, atypical network traffic).
Applications :
- Advanced Threat Detection (zero-day, APTinternal threats).
- Identification of compromised accounts (UEBA).
- Monitoring of system processes to detect malicious activity.
Benefits :
- Reduction of false positives by contextualising actions.
- Adaptability to evolving attack techniques.
- Complementary to traditional security solutions.
