How Log360 detects, triages, and mitigates insider threats

  • Behavior-based anomaly detection
  • Streamlined threat investigation with contextual insights
  • Accelerated insider threat detection with AI-powered Zia insights

Behavior-based anomaly detection

Leverage Log360's UEBA capabilities to transform user and entity activity into actionable insights. By establishing baselines of normal behavior and continuously monitoring deviations, Log360 empowers you to swiftly identify and mitigate insider threats through advanced anomaly detection, contextual analysis, and real time alerting.

Key capabilities of behavior-based anomaly detection for insider threat detection:

  • Behavior baseline Continuously learns normal activity patterns for users, devices, and accounts using ML to detect deviations that could signal insider threats.
  • Anomaly detection: Flags unusual activities such as unexpected logins, privilege escalations, or abnormal data access that may indicate malicious activities or compromised accounts.
  • Risk scoring: Assigns risk scores to users and events based on anomaly severity, helping SOC analysts focus on the most critical threats.
  • Correlation with threat intelligence: Enriches anomaly alerts with external threat data for deeper context and validation.
  • Comprehensive activity monitoring: Detects suspicious behaviors across the attack chain, including data exfiltration attempts, privilege misuse, and anomalous file deletions.

With Log360's behavior-based anomaly detection, organizations can proactively identify hidden insider threats, minimize false positives, and strengthen their overall security posture.

Streamlined threat investigation with contextual insights

Log360's Incident Workbench simplifies insider threat investigations by consolidating logs, alerts, and user activity into a single, contextualized view. By correlating events such as privilege escalations, unusual login patterns, and mass file deletions, you can quickly reconstruct attack paths, uncover insider threats, and take decisive response actions.

Key capabilities of the Incident Workbench for insider threat investigation:

  • Entity-based attribution: Quickly identify which user, IP, or endpoint was involved in the incident, along with a complete activity trail.
  • Interactive attack timelines: Visualize the sequence of events to understand how an insider attack unfolded, from the initial access to final impact.
  • Risk-based prioritization: Leverage risk scores and anomaly detection to focus investigations on high-risk users and critical incidents first.
  • Seamless response workflows: Trigger SOAR playbooks, disable compromised accounts, or isolate endpoints directly from the workbench to stop insider threats in their tracks.
  • Guided investigations: Incident Workbench brings together user, device, and process data with external reputation insights to help you track suspicious activity end-to-end.

With Incident Workbench, you can cut through alert noise, investigate insider threats with confidence, and accelerate mean time to respond (MTTR).

  • Entity and actor attribution: Automatically identifies and attributes suspicious activity to specific users, devices, and IPs, crucial for pinpointing insider threats.
  • Visual attack timelines: Reconstructs sequences of events with interactive timelines, helping you trace the progression of insider activities across systems.
  • MITRE ATT&CK® mapping: Aligns suspicious behavior with known adversarial tactics, giving you clear context for insider threat patterns.
  • Automated categorization: Organizes logs into audit, error, or security categories, streamlining investigation workflows.
  • Actionable remediation guidance: Suggests tailored next steps for threats and errors, allowing you to respond effectively and reduce downtime.

With Zia Insights, organizations can proactively detect, investigate, and respond to insider threats, reduce risk exposure, and enhance overall security posture.

Detect risky insider behaviors across the attack chain: Key use cases explained

Insider threats can take many forms, from deliberate sabotage and data theft to accidental leaks and compromised accounts. Understanding these attacks helps you stay ahead of evolving insider risks.

  • Privilege escalation

    Insiders exploit or misuse privileged access to perform unauthorized actions, such as modifying security settings or escalating their privileges beyond their role.

    Use case: A system administrator modifies critical GPOs after hours without approval, potentially weakening the network's security posture.

  • Suspicious database activity

    Insiders or compromised accounts may perform unauthorized queries, bulk exports, or repeated failed attempts to access sensitive databases, aiming to steal or manipulate data.

    Use case: A database user runs multiple large queries after business hours and tries to export customer information without authorization.

How Log360 detects it:

  • Monitors file transfers on endpoints and cloud services to flag unusually large or off-hours transfers.
  • Detects abnormal use of external storage devices, like USB drives.
  • Establishes behavioral baselines for data access and triggers alerts for unusual patterns.

How Log360 detects it:

  • Monitors unusual privilege escalations and unauthorized admin commands, such as abnormal sudo activity.
  • Tracks changes to security configurations, especially outside scheduled maintenance windows.
  • Assigns risk scores based on the sensitivity of the misuse to help prioritize investigations.

How Log360 detects it:

  • Monitors abnormal database queries and bulk export activities, especially outside regular hours.
  • Detects repeated failed login attempts or privilege escalation attempts within the database.
  • Correlates database activity with user behavior to identify potential insider threats.

Frequently Asked Questions

Insider threat detection identifies risks from employees, contractors, or partners who misuse access to sensitive data. ManageEngine Log360 uses user and entity behavior analytics (UEBA), real-time threat intelligence, and MITRE ATT&CK® mapping to detect malicious insider threats, ensuring rapid response to prevent data breaches.

Insider threat detection software monitors user activity and system logs to identify anomalies. Log360 combines UEBA to detect deviations from normal behavior, correlation rules to spot attack patterns, and threat intelligence from feeds like STIX/TAXII to flag suspicious actions, enabling security teams to prioritize and mitigate threats efficiently.

Top insider threat detection tools include ManageEngine Log360, Securonix, and Cyberhaven. Log360 stands out with its unified SIEM, UEBA, and SOAR capabilities, offering over 2,000 MITRE-mapped rules, real-time analytics, and automated workflows to detect and respond to insider threats effectively.

Insider threats originate from authorized users (e.g., employees) with access to sensitive data, while external threats come from hackers or malware. Log360 detects insider threats with UEBA and MITRE ATT&CK mapping, identifying anomalies like privilege abuse, while its threat intelligence blocks external attacks from malicious IPs or URLs.

UEBA establishes baselines for normal user and system behavior, flagging anomalies like unusual logins or data exfiltration. Log360's UEBA detects insider threats, such as compromised accounts or privilege abuse, with high accuracy, reducing dwell time and preventing breaches.
