Mitre Attack

MITRE ATT&CK mapping

The MITRE ATT&CK framework offers a standardized approach to mapping and understanding cyber-attack tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs). By utilizing the Argus MITRE ATT&CK module, we can enhance our understanding of TTPs used by threat actors and proactively defend against them.

The Argus MITRE ATT&CK module maps TTPs to generated events, facilitating efficient threat hunting by promptly identifying patterns in attacker behavior. For instance, a suspicious login attempt can be associated with the “Credential Stuffing” technique in the MITRE ATT&CK framework. This empowers users to assess the frequency of such attacks and implement necessary measures to mitigate risks, such as enabling multi-factor authentication or rate-limiting login attempts. The MITRE ATT&CK module on the Argus dashboard allows you to view various techniques found within a monitored environment.

This module generates reports and visualizations on the Argus dashboard, showcasing the frequency and severity of attacks utilizing specific TTP. These reports help track compliance with security standards and regulations while highlighting areas where security measures may require strengthening.

You can proactively protect your systems and data by leveraging insights from the MITRE ATT&CK framework. The integration of MITRE ATT&CK with Argus significantly enhances threat hunting and improves overall security.
