How to catch the identity attacks your other tools can’t see

Identity threat detection and response (ITDR) is critical for identity resilience. Here’s why.

Identity attacks hide in plain sight

Why your tools miss identity-based attacks

Your endpoint tools look for malicious files and known-bad processes. A valid, stolen credential is neither.

Attackers know what you monitor. They bypass standard event logs and disable audit agents.

Once logging is off or cleared, log-based tools have nothing left to alert on.

Attackers use completely legitimate identity processes and mechanics to wreak havoc.

Identity threat detection and response closes those gaps.

Recovery without detection restores the attacker

If you restore identity from backup without knowing and fixing what went wrong, you’ll bring the attacker back into your environment. Detection without recovery is only half a strategy.

Recovery without detection becomes a reinfection loop.

If you don’t continuously harden your identity infrastructure both before and after an attack, your identity services will remain exposed and vulnerable.

What you get with Cohesity Identity Resilience

  • Prepare for an attack

    Harden your identity infrastructure to shrink exposure and limit the blast radius.

  • See every change

    Monitor the AD replication stream to catch malicious changes when an attacker disables logging or clears security logs.

  • Undo bad changes

    Suspicious changes roll back automatically, down to a single attribute.

  • Know where you stand

    Ongoing scans for indicators of exposure and compromise, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK, MITRE D3FEND, and ANSSI, so findings match the language your security team already uses.

  • Recover clean and quick

    Automated, malware-free recovery from immutable, isolated backups restores identity to a trusted state in hours, not days or weeks.

Catch the most common attacker techniques

Attack phase

Technique (MITRE ID) What it flags
AS-REP Roasting (T1558.004) Admins with Kerberos pre-authentication disabled
Kerberoasting (T1558.003) Users (usually a service account) with SPN not supporting AES encryption
DCSync (T1003.006) Non-default principal with DCSync rights on the domain
Golden Ticket (T1558.001) Kerberos KRBTGT account with old password
