Kevin Mandia on why companies need an agent swarm polling their network like a heartbeat, because the window to catch a new security hole keeps shrinking:
"We do a thing called a hyperattack. That's just a fancy word for we throw a drone swarm of agents at you, and we map your network. Every service, every route, every system, all assets."
"With that metadata, we now just poll you almost like a heartbeat. What's changed? Did an app change? Did a route change? Did a service get updated? So that we can poll cheaply for change and then attack the change."
"What you really want in the AI age is the constant pressure of models attacking you... You do it when either the threat changes, new models come out, new intelligence is available, or your network changes."
"That's what we had over the weekend. There was a zero-day in a popular product, and immediately we've already got the heartbeat. We just polled who's got the problem."
"Our goal at Armadin is to go from a known vulnerability to knowing whether it's actually exploitable before the bad guys can."
