PRODUCT REVIEW: Detect and Destroy APTs with Crystal Eye TDIR

Red Piranha is a leading developer & manufacturer of premium Cyber Security products in Australia. Red Piranha is also an official member of Team Defence Australia that promises to deliver advanced cybersecurity capabilities to its clients. By using automation, world-class technologies, and the best available talent, Red Piranha delivers solutions for information security, delivering maximum defence against the malicious intent of threat actors to organisations of every size and scale.

The smart attackers of today use tricks to slip past those traditional defences, like the EDR (Endpoint Detection and Response) systems. To remain protected now means using the latest solutions that comply with global security standards and are able to provide complete visibility across both network and endpoints.

This is a challenge addressed by Red Piranha’s Crystal Eye TDIR solution. Crystal Eye is designed to offer organizations advanced threat detection and response, capable of protecting against even the most elusive threats. To learn more about how Crystal Eye adheres to the global standards of security to counter the advanced threats, read Red Piranha’s whitepaper titled, “Red Piranha TDIR: Global Compliance, Unmatched Security

Meeting the Global Cybersecurity Challenge: Practical Solutions for Today

As cyber threats become more sophisticated, the United States Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) along with other agencies around the world collaborate in an effort to agree on standardized guidelines that promote better detection of threats and response to incidents. The guidelines would therefore involve sophisticated event logging, threat detection, and even safe strategies for responding to incidents within IT, cloud, and OT environments.

In step with these global best practices, Red Piranha’s TDIR solution provides the best-in-class capabilities for event logging, incident management, and network visibility    in order to stay ahead of cyber criminals.

The Rise of EDR Evasion Tools and LOTL Attacks

The major threats of today to any organization are the EDR evasion tools available on underground cybercrime forums. This is a way for attackers to bypass traditional endpoint security, leveraging tactics such as LOTL, where legitimate tools like PowerShell or WMI are used to camouflage malicious activities in a way that makes it difficult for traditional EDR systems to detect.

How Red Piranha’s Crystal Eye TDIR aligns with Global Guidelines?

1. Utilize AI and Machine Learning for Threat Detection

Red Piranha Crystal Eye solutions (with the help of AI/ML-powered analytics) detect subtle anomalies in user behaviour and network traffic. This enables the identification of complex threats to security teams (such as Cobalt Strike or other C2 callouts) that would otherwise remain undetected.

 Crystal Eye (CE) goes one step further than traditional techniques through the analysis of encrypted traffic and the integration of threat intelligence into detection. It therefore allows organisations to stay one step ahead of the threat actors. CE’s next-generation threat detection capabilities, enabled by User & Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA), are empowered to identify anomalies in patterns of behaviour that are outside the norm and could signify insider threats or external attacks.

2. Real-Time Alerts and Incident Response Automation

One of the key features and one of the foundations of the TDIR platform at Red Piranha is real-time alert generation in relation to critical cybersecurity events and Indicator of Compromises (IoCs). In this light, Crystal Eye integrates incident response automated workflows that can help organizations rapidly detect and respond to malicious activities, minimizing the window of exposure. For example, the response system automatically triggers the isolation of the affected systems and mitigates the threat in real time in the event of a LOTL attack. Such proactive measures ensure that an attack is contained well before it spreads, which greatly reduces any potential impact on business operations.

3. Complete Network Visibility with NDR

Traditional EDR tools focus on endpoint data, which attackers can often manipulate. Crystal Eye NDR by Red Piranha goes further—it watches the entire network, tracking east-west traffic to spot anomalies that hint at early attack stages, like privilege escalation or data theft attempts. This network-wide monitoring is key for detecting threats that hide behind legitimate tools (such as PowerShell in LOTL attacks) by adding a critical layer of security beyond traditional endpoint defence.

4. Event Logging and Centralized Log Management

Efficient event logging is key to strong detection and response. Crystal Eye TDIR streamlines log management, gathering logs securely across systems for analysis. It not only captures logs but correlates them from different environments, offering a complete view of security events.

Crystal Eye supports the customization of log retention policies and secures all critical security data in protected storage. Its centralized approach to compliance makes it easier to handle, thus enabling the organization with the visibility it needs to detect complex assaults over time, delivering immediate reaction to them.

Proactive Threat Hunting and Extended Log Retention

Crystal Eye empowers security teams to hunt down threats proactively instead of waiting for alerts. Its automated threat-hunting dashboards constantly optimize detection rules, enabling early discovery and fast action against advanced attacks. Plus, with over 18 months of log retention, it’s equipped to track complex, long-term threats like APTs that might take time to uncover.

Enhanced Incident Response with MDR

The volume of security alerts has become very challenging for almost any organization to manage. Crystal Eye’s MDR service helps alleviate this burden by automating the triaging of alerts, freeing security teams to focus on the most critical threats. Our customers are guaranteed that no critical events will go unnoticed because of expert support around the clock and courtesy of Red Piranha’s Security Operations Centre.

It automates containment and remediation activities involved in incident response, meaning security teams can respond to incidents in minutes versus days. This minimizes the damage an attack can potentially cause and ensures business recovery times are as fast as possible.

Conclusion 

The accelerating sophistication of cyber threats demands that organisations apply advanced solutions with proactive, real-time defence capabilities. The Crystal Eye TDIR solution offered by Red Piranha is a complete, scalable platform solution that not only meets global cybersecurity compliance standards but also expands threat detection, investigation, and response competencies across the IT, cloud, and OT environments.
