enSilo's research team routinely discovers advances in crypto-mining malware and advanced attack tools, such as DarkGate and L0rdix, helping adversaries upend layered security measures and compromise victim devices. Armed with these techniques, attackers quickly bypass defenses and switch between different cryptomining or ransomware payloads in their efforts to quickly turn criminal profits at Internet scale. The enSilo Endpoint Security Platform soundly defeats these threats by blocking suspicious activity pre- and post-execution , containing the threat and can take orchestrated remediation actions including isolating the endpoint, notifying incident response teams, and remediating the infection all without disrupting productivity For more details on enSilo activities at RSA Conference, come by South Expo Hall Booth # 2245, visit rsa.ensilo.com and follow enSilo's event updates on Twitter and LinkedIn.
