In this demo, we walk through a high-stakes, multi-stage attack from a single phishing click to a full-scale ransomware attempt and data exfiltration. Watch how Cortex XDR’s SmartScore and Causality Chain technology turn a mountain of raw data into a clear, actionable story.
What you’ll see in this video:
00:40 – Cutting the Noise with SmartScore: See how SmartScore intelligently prioritizes high-severity cases using global threat data.
00:59 – Automated Enrichment & Ransomware Detection: See how XDR identifies compromised privileged accounts and flags volume shadow deletion, a major warning sign of ransomware.
01:32 – Multi-Source Data Fusion: Watch XDR fuse data from endpoint, network, cloud, and identity to provide the full context of the breach in one view.
02:07 – Ransomware 101 & ‘Living off the Land’: Watch the attacker’s first move, deleting shadow copies and using legitimate Windows tools to prepare for encryption.
02:57 – Identity Hijack & ‘Impossible Travel’: The attack pivots. Watch as the attacker uses stolen credentials to log in from a new country and take full control of the identity.
03:31 – Data Exfiltration via SMTP Forwarding: The "Payoff." See how the attacker attempts to steal data by redirecting all future emails to an external Gmail account.
04:00 – Remediation with Agentic AI: The future of the SOC. Watch us disable the compromised account instantly with a simple natural language command.
04:29 – XDR vs. The Competition: Why siloed alerts fail and how a unified story reduces MTTD to seconds and MTTR to minutes.
🎯 Why This Matters: Security teams waste hours triaging disconnected alerts across multiple tools. Cortex XDR unifies network, endpoint, identity, and cloud data into a single platform—resolving incidents in minutes instead of days.
Why Cortex XDR? Security teams are often overwhelmed by disconnected alerts. Cortex XDR stitches together network, endpoint, identity and cloud data to give you the "Full Picture," allowing you to resolve in minutes what used to take days.
