CyberCyte Shadow-IT Discovery & Control

CyberCyte Shadow-IT Discovery & Control

Shadow-IT rarely appears as “new software.” It manifests as unsigned DLLs, one-off scripts, unapproved browser add-ons, rogue local accounts, and unfamiliar processes executing outbound DNS/IP requests. CyberCyte Shadow-IT modules consolidate these signals into a single exposure view, then translate raw findings into action through swift allowlisting and AI-driven prioritisation.

Monitored Artifacts

  • Windows Applications
  • Linux DEB/RPM Packages
  • macOS Applications
  • Devices in the Network
  • Windows Processes
  • Windows Scripts
  • Windows DLLs
  • Local User Accounts
  • Active Directory & Azure User Accounts
  • Browser Add-On’s
  • Process DNS/IP Requests

How Does CyberCyte Identify and Control Shadow-IT Exposure?

Shadow-IT manifests through weak but meaningful indicators: anomalous binaries, suspicious script execution, identity drift, and unexplained outbound traffic.

CyberCyte normalises these signals into a unified asset-and-exposure model. Each discovery is risk-scored, prioritised, and translated into immediate control actions through dynamic allow-listing—reducing alert fatigue while preventing attack path expansion before escalation.

From Discovery to Control in Minutes

CyberCyte collects high-fidelity endpoint and identity telemetry, then normalises findings into a consistent asset-and-exposure model.

Allowlisting in minutes

Approved applications, packages, scripts, DLLs, and browser add-ons can be allowlisted quickly to reduce noise, avoid operational disruption, and focus attention on what truly deviates from policy.

AI scoring for priority

Every discovery is scored to surface what matters first: suspicious execution paths, uncommon binaries, risky script behaviours, anomalous process traffic, and identity changes that widen attack paths.

Outcome

Less alert fatigue, faster triage, and a continuously enforced “known-good” baseline across endpoints, identities, and network activity.

Use Case: Discover Targeted Attacks With CyberCyte

BADAUDIO Malware — China-nexus threat actor (APT24)

A targeted intrusion rarely triggers simple “malware found” alerts. It progresses through small, evasive steps. CyberCyte Shadow-IT visibility maps those steps to clear controls:

  • Injects DLL
    • CyberCyte DLL Allow-Listing
    • Risky DLL’s deleted
  • Executes scripts for avoiding detection
    • CyberCyte Script Allow-Listing
    • Risky script executions blocked
  • Creates traffic to typosquatted domain
    • Process traffic tracking
    • Unknown process blocked
  • Compression software vulnerabilities exploited
    • Discover endpoint vulnerabilities
    • Vulnerable software upgraded
