The HYAS Solution

HYAS is the cybersecurity vendor that offers the unique combination of cybersecurity products that are a benefit to both managed services teams and threat intel teams:

HYAS Insight: This advanced threat intelligence and investigation platform gives organizations the ability to identify, track, and attribute fraud and attacks faster and more efficiently. HYAS Insight provides threat and fraud response teams with unprecedented visibility into everything a defender needs to know about an attack: the origin, current infrastructure being used, alerts when new relevant infrastructure is created, and any infrastructure likely to be used by an adversary in the future.

By analyzing data aggregated from leading private and commercial sources around the world, HYAS identifies suspicious infrastructure likely to be used in attacks — sometimes months before it is even activated. Top Fortune 500 companies rely on HYAS’ exclusive data sources and nontraditional collection mechanism to power their security and fraud investigations.

HYAS Protect: Built on the underpinning technology of HYAS Insight threat intelligence, HYAS Protect is a protective DNS solution that combines authoritative knowledge of attacker infrastructure and unrivaled domain-based intelligence to proactively enforce security and block the command and control (C2) communication used by malware, ransomware, phishing, and other forms of cyber-attacks.

Even if an attack has bypassed a network’s perimeter defenses – regardless of how the breach occurred – it still must “beacon out” for instructions, including lateral motion, privilege escalation, data exfiltration, and even encryption. And the need to beacon out to malicious infrastructure, commonly called command-and-control (C2), must be established prior to launching the attack.

HYAS detects and blocks these beaconing requests of nefarious C2 communication, letting users cut off these attacks before they cause harm, whether in an IT or OT environment. If an organization can be alerted to this adversary infrastructure, they can stop an attack before damage can be done and ensure true business resiliency.
