An engineer is trying to decide whether to use Cisco Umbrella. Cisco CloudLock. Cisco Stealthwatch. or Cisco AppDynamics Cloud Monitoring for visibility into data transfers as well as protection against data exfiltration. Which solution best meets these requirements?
Cisco CloudLock best meets the requirements for visibility into data transfers and protection against data exfiltration. As a cloud-native security platform, CloudLock provides comprehensive visibility and control over data, users, and applications in the cloud. It incorporates Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB), and Cloud Identity and Access Management (CIAM) features to ensure data security. CloudLock is designed to detect, prevent, and respond to data exposures and leakages, thereby protecting against data exfiltration while offering excellent visibility into cloud data activities.
D. Cisco Umbrella https://security.umbrella.com/cisco-cloud-security
Agree With you Cisco Umbrella and Cisco Cloudlock work together to secure access to the internet and usage of cloud apps. As a cloud-delivered service, Umbrella provides the first line of defense against threats on the internet, wherever users go. It provides organizations the visibility needed to protect internet access across all network devices, office locations, and roaming users. With Umbrella, customers can stop malware infections earlier, identify already-infected devices faster and prevent data exfiltration. Cisco Cloudlock is a Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) that helps organizations to secure their identities, data, and applications in the cloud. It provides visibility and control over global cloud activities, enabling organizations to know who is doing what in their cloud applications, protecting against compromised accounts, insider threats, and malware. Cloudlock helps organizations identify and respond to data exposures and leakages as well as privacy and compliance violations.
Cisco CloudLock (Option B) best meets the requirements for visibility into data transfers and protection against data exfiltration. Cisco CloudLock is a cloud-native security platform that provides visibility and control over data, users and infrastructure in the cloud. It offers a range of features including Cloud Data Loss Prevention (DLP), Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB) and Cloud Identity and Access Management (CIAM). It can detect and prevent data exfiltration, and also provide visibility into data transfers. While Cisco AppDynamics Cloud Monitoring (Option A) is a cloud-native monitoring solution that tracks the performance of cloud-based applications, Cisco Stealthwatch (Option C) is a network traffic analysis solution that provides visibility into network activity and detects threats, and Cisco Umbrella (Option D) is a secure internet gateway that provides protection against internet-based threats.
visibility = Stealthwatch data prottection = CloudLock
question is about solution protect from data exfilteration, cloudlock and protect data from exfilterate while Stealthwatch can only detect DLP viloations
If you search the question in internet, Stealthwatch will literally come up https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/security/stealthwatch/datasheet-c78-739398.html
"Protection against data exfiltration" Stealthwatch uses advanced machine learning and behavioral modeling techniques to establish a baseline of normal network behavior. It then identifies deviations from this baseline, helping detect suspicious data transfers and potential data exfiltration in real-time. It can also integrate with other security solutions, such as Cisco Firepower and Cisco Umbrella, to provide a more holistic security posture. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/collateral/security/stealthwatch/white-paper-c11-740605.html#:~:text=and%2Dcontrol%20communications%2C-,data%20exfiltration,-%2C%20and%20potentially%20unwanted
Not sure but I think option B may be correct Cloudlock's data loss prevention (DLP) technology continuously monitors cloud environments to detect and secure sensitive information. It provides countless out-of-the-box policies as well as highly tunable custom policies. https://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/products/security/cloudlock/index.html#~features
q452 C - is the correct answer: CLOUDLOCK help with exfiltration but only in regards to the APS, and in this question it clearly stands that you need to pickup a solution which is not only supporting exfiltration but also cloud visibility where Stealthwatch is much better choice PROOF1: https://cisco.bravais.com/s/169ZRg2tWIOXb0uBjfWX PROOF2 https://cisco.bravais.com/s/15jOM9fFMK78ei07JnYK
PROOF1: https://cisco.bravais.com/s/169ZRg2tWIOXb0uBjfWX Customer situation A company or organization’s most valuable assets include its intellectual property, confidential information, and information stored in its networks. Data breaches cost millions of dollars, and proper mitigation can prevent this and the loss of trust that can follow. Solution: The Cisco Stealthwatch® Exfiltration alarms track Inside Hosts and Outside Hosts to which an abnormal amount of data has been transferred. If a host triggers a number of these events and exceeds a configured threshold, it results in a Data Exfiltration alarm
PROOF2 https://cisco.bravais.com/s/15jOM9fFMK78ei07JnYK Customer situation As the attack landscape changes, network security becomes increasingly difficult. Cloud networks are growing in popularity, making it even more challenging for security teams to plan and execute security strategies. One of the key threats to network security is data exfiltration, which can be carried out manually by a user on the network, or by an automated process using a malicious program. Solution: Cisco Stealthwatch® has ways to detect data exfiltration attacks facing on-premise networks. For protection against data exfiltration in a cloud environment, Stealthwatch Cloud uses dynamic learning and entity modeling to provide similar detection. Stealthwatch Cloud monitors the cloud network and alerts on possible data exfiltration.
B Cloudlock All of the mentioned solutions have different features and capabilities that can help with visibility and protection against data exfiltration. However, based on the specific requirements mentioned in the question, the solution that best meets them is Cisco CloudLock. Cisco CloudLock provides visibility and control over data in cloud applications, including data transfers and protection against data exfiltration. It offers real-time monitoring and alerting for data-related events and allows for granular policies to be applied to specific users, data types, and cloud applications. It also includes advanced threat detection capabilities, such as anomaly detection and machine learning-based analytics, to identify and mitigate potential data breaches.
b , because DLP Is supported by cloudlock
Either B or C would be strong contenders here.... For comprehensive cloud application security and data transfer monitoring: Cisco CloudLock is a strong choice. For broader network traffic analysis and threat detection, including data exfiltration attempts: Cisco Stealthwatch Cloud is a better fit.
Of course, you can only choose one answer though lol.... My first choice would be: Cisco Cloudlock The key phrases that stood out for me were ...."visibility into DATA transfers as well as protection against DATA exfiltration". And as stated already - anything to do with DATA transfer monitoring and enforcing DATA access policies to prevent unauthorized DATA exfiltration from cloud platfroms - Cisco Cloudlock has the upper hand - hands down.
CORRECT B A- Wrong APP Dynamics is for application performance and behavior B- Stealthwatch is for visibilitc , did not protect by any native function C - Umbrella is for web based traffic , not DATA
D. No doubt about it. https://security.umbrella.com/cisco-cloud-security
B. Cisco CloudLock
The Secure Network Analytics (formerly Stealthwatch) Exfiltration alarms tracks inside and outside hosts to which an abnormal amount of data has been transferred. If a host triggers events exceeding a configured threshold, it results in an Exfiltration alarm. https://learningnetwork.cisco.com/s/question/0D56e0000CiMFx6CQG/why-visibility-to-see-what-happen-in-your-network-is-important-today-with-cisco-secure-network-analytics-stealthwatch
C is correct. It will work even if the organization does not use Cloud and the question does not restrict to cloud data exfiltration or data leak...
B Cloudlock Cisco Cloudlock delivers visibility and control for cloud application environments such as Microsoft Office 365, Salesforce, Google G Suite, Box, Dropbox, and others (the “Covered SaaS Environments”). It helps secure cloud identities, data, and applications. https://trustportal.cisco.com/c/dam/r/ctp/docs/privacydatasheet/security/cisco-cloudlock-privacy-data-sheet.pdf
