The rate at which high profile cybersecurity breaches happen every day; it is clear that the adversaries have turned the digital world into a war zone. We, at Infopercept, call it “The Digital Warfare”. Every day when a breach occurs, it is a win for the adversaries and a loss for our businesses and cybersecurity professionals who take care of the security of the businesses.

The problem lies in understanding the way adversaries behave. They have launched a full-fledged war and their attacks cannot be combated without understanding the rules of this cyber war. In one of the great books written on War - the author of the book says, “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.”

Unfortunately, in this war against the adversaries, nearly half of the organizations neither know their enemy (cybercriminals) nor themselves; and the majority of the organizations don’t know their enemy. Hence, we see large scale data breaches happening all across the world.

With years of experience in successfully running “Security Operations Centers” for various organizations worldwide; Infopercept has designed a platform called Invinsense. Invinsense is an integrated tool which combines security solutions, services and strategy- all revolving around an attacker’s mindset. The threat intelligence that is generated with this integrated platform, helps organizations to predict an attacker’s behavior and gives enough scope to take action to combat such attacks before they create irreparable damage to organizations. On the surface it seems that adversaries are unpredictable, and they change their way of attacking each time. However, with research and study it has become clear that some portion of their behavior remains the same.

Any adversary has two aspects of their behavior- Techniques and Tactics. Often cybersecurity strategies are aligned in line with the techniques of adversaries and that is where the problem lies. Adversaries can change their techniques every time and can surprise cybersecurity tools and professionals. With Invinsense we have focused on the tactics of adversaries and the platform with its attacker sense, which helps organizations to combat cyberattacks by killing attack chains based on the tactics of cybercriminals.

Invinsense has integrated the cybersecurity innovations of the open source community into its solutions and has designed an integrated approach towards cybersecurity that can think and behave like adversaries.
