Suspicious and malicious activities
In multi-cloud environments, detecting suspicious and malicious activity is crucial to maintaining the security of your cloud resources. Here are some common examples of suspicious and malicious activities that a CSPM tool should help detect or can also work in tandem with other existing security tools to detect:
- Anomalous access patterns: Unusual patterns of accessing resources, such as logging in from unfamiliar locations or devices, or accessing resources at odd hours. These are also referred to as impossible travel activities. These patterns could indicate compromised accounts or unauthorized access attempts.
- Brute-force attacks: A brute-force attack is a method that’s used in computer security and cryptography to gain unauthorized access to a system, account, or encrypted data by systematically trying all combinations of passwords, encryption keys, or other credentials until the correct one is found.
- Account takeover attempts...
