TRUEFORT SOLUTION

Service Account Behavior Analytics

Service accounts are a necessary part of the administrative process of applications, but if obtained, they give attackers unrestricted access to move laterally across environments to find and steal critical data. They are rarely managed appropriately and almost never retired, which makes them predictable targets. TrueFort detects, monitors, and learns trusted connection patterns of users, applications, and service accounts.

Untracked service accounts are an attacker’s skeleton key

  • Forgotten accounts are vulnerabilities – Old and orphaned accounts are spread throughout servers and applications, and their use goes undetected
  • IoT and automation grow service account usage – As these privileged accounts are needed and used at high volume, finding something erratic is highly difficult
  • UEBA solutions only understand user accounts – end users and automated machines behave in dramatically different ways when accessing key assets
  • PAM and IAM solutions lack behavior – identity management solutions lack context on where, when, and how service accounts are being used and what they are authorized to do

Securing privileged accounts requires deep understanding of their use

Improve service account behavior

Automatically find, report and track usage across servers, workloads, and applications to prevent unauthorized behavior.

Validate account relationships

Easily identify rotating and retiring service accounts before they break existing applications where hardcoded or locally cached credentials exist. Understanding the interactions between applications and workloads enables security teams to prevent downtime and compromise.

Automate least privilege access

Enhance the identification, monitoring, and management of service accounts in the context of application to prevent business risks.

Real-time notification

Detect a suspicious behavior to immediately kill unwanted service account actions when it strays from normal, approved actions
