Blackridge Technology

BlackRidge provides next generation cyber defense that was developed to cloak and protect servers on the battlefield. Our solution authenticates identity and applies a security policy - at the earliest possible time - before a network session is established to: • Isolate, protect and segment resources from unidentified and unauthorized users, • Stop cyber-attacks by blocking scanning and reconnaissance, and • Protect against insider and 3rd party threats and provide attribution Designed to stop the kill chain, reduce risk, simplify compliance and increase operational efficiency by blocking or redirecting anonymous and unauthorized traffic at the earliest possible time.. The problem we address is that the TCP protocol leaks information, even behind firewalls, and IP addresses cannot be relied upon for identity. Every network-connected application or device must establish a TCP connection before performing any client authentication. This property of Internet transport protocols enables vulnerability scanning tools to identify which applications are present, develop signatures of the connected device, including the OS, release and patch levels, application vendors and version and patch levels. This information is then used to develop strategies to attack a user or system or to further penetrate an enterprise. BlackRidge authenticates identity and applies security policy before session establishment, denying attackers and even insiders the information required to exploit vulnerabilities, and laterally spread in your network or cloud systems.
