Detection and response teams
ClearVector for detection and response teams
When did the incident start?
Who is involved
What’s the blast radius
How did they get in?
Answering these questions is challenging because:
Time
Every second counts when responding to the adversary, requiring a balance between thorough investigation and rapid response, while also providing answers to leadership throughout the incident.
Visibility
Blind spots and detection gaps lead to lengthy investigations, an inability to determine the blast radius, or missing the adversary entirely, and correlating activity across AWS, GCP, IdPs, containers, and more remains a manual process in a production environment that’s always changing.
Resource constraints
Underresourced security teams are tasked with covering expansive production environments, struggling to find signal in the noise due to the alert cannon of false positives, and facing a shortage of expertise in AWS, GCP, GitHub, containers, and Kubernetes.
ClearVector answers these questions in seconds by tracing every action to the originating identity. By connecting behavior across the production environment, ClearVector helps teams detect, triage, and contain to limit the impact of a breach.
Comparison
The ClearVector approach
From hours to seconds
Before ClearVector
Time to detect
Invest in writing signatures for a SIEM or database, bespoke or ad-hoc QA for detection rules
Time to triage
- Manual complex queries in a SIEM or database
Time to contain
- Complex IAM policy modifications, coordination across teams, lengthy investigations to determine the exact resources involved
After ClearVector
Time to detect
Always up-to-date, customizable detection engine that learns based on your production environment
- IMPACT: Free up time to focus on other areas - automatic notifications within 30 seconds to 2 minutes across everything in your production environment
Time to triage
Automatic identity attribution and instant pivoting through pre-built identity graphs all on a single timeline
- IMPACT: Elimination of manual work that typically consumes 80% of triage and investigation time
Time to contain
Automatic recommendations and a big red button for immediate isolation - one click (or API call) to revert
- IMPACT: Response time reduced from hours to seconds
From technical logs to clear explanations
Before ClearVector
Manually interpret raw logs across providers, understand and research API calls and logs
Fragmented view of the adversary across human, non-human, and third-party identities, along with across providers such as AWS, GCP, GitHub, containers, and K8s
Write complex, ad-hoc queries to understand relationships between identities, roles, resources, policies, and other resources

After ClearVector
Runtime activity over periods of time is transformed into natural language - how you would describe the activity to your boss or someone who is not a security expert
- IMPACT: Any team member can understand and act on security events, not just security experts
Complete identity mapping for all activity
- IMPACT: Clear understanding of who’s responsible for what activity, making attribution, response, and remediation easy
Navigate the relationships visually with a graph, or from within natural language narratives
- IMPACT: Incident responders can follow their intuition without technical barriers of learning a query language
From bespoke to surgical and precise response
Before ClearVector
Chasing signatures for “known bad” indicators of the adversary
Bespoke or broad containment options while investigation occurs
Incomplete picture due to limited retention, LOE required to load historical data, or lack of visibility
After ClearVector
Predictive, behavioral models for every identity - tailored to your environment
- IMPACT: A defensible strategic position that when compromised by an adversary, provides a high-quality stream of true positives
Isolate specific identities, serverless functions, buckets, or container image repositories
- IMPACT: Minimize business disruption while stopping the adversary
90 days or more of data stored outside your production environment - protected from tampering by the adversary
- IMPACT: Complete forensic capability to go back in time and understand what happened
Speed
Notifications within 30 seconds to 2 minutes across everything in your production environment. Response time reduced from hours to seconds. Sub 400ms graph navigation for quick triage and investigation.
Precision
90 days or more of data stored outside your production environment—protected from tampering by the adversary. Complete forensic capability to go back in time and understand what happened.
