SE LABS Ⓡ, the cyber security testing authority, today published results showing AhnLab EPP/EDR achieved a AAA rating with 100% detection accuracy against Wizard Spider threat group tactics.
SE Labs’ Advanced Security tests evaluate products against full attack chains derived from current threat intelligence. The 20-page technical analysis provides security teams and CISOs with a detailed analysis of how AhnLab EPP/EDR performed against each attack stage and whether it delivers the comprehensive detection and response capabilities security teams require when sophisticated threat groups target their organisations.
Complete Attack Chain Visibility
AhnLab EPP/EDR demonstrated strong performance across all four critical detection stages in SE Labs’ testing. It successfully alerted on every spear-phishing message and its associated malicious executables, flagged attempts to access system files, directories, and user information, and consistently detected both attacker control of local data and exfiltration via the C2 channel.
It detected every attempt to escalate privileges and post-escalation actions, catching attempts to gain privileges over domain accounts as well as attempts to bypass user account control. The product was also awarded full scores for detecting the attacks as they moved from the target system to the other devices in the network.
“An AAA award from SE Labs represents more than a pass/fail badge,” says Simon Edwards, CEO and founder of SE Labs. “It reflects a product’s ability to provide security teams with comprehensive visibility and control when facing the sophisticated, multi-stage attacks that define today’s threat landscape. AhnLab EPP/EDR demonstrated exactly that capability against one of the most prolific threat groups operating today.”
AhnLab EPP/EDR achieved its AAA rating with a 95% Total Accuracy score, combining perfect 100% Detection Accuracy with 90% Legitimate Accuracy, demonstrating effective threat detection while minimising disruption to business operations.
