For most of the past decade, security advice on credential attacks reduced to a single instruction. Turn on multi-factor authentication. That instruction was correct and it worked, which is precisely why attackers stopped attacking the thing it protects. The current generation of credential campaigns does not try to defeat MFA. It waits for the victim to complete it, then steals what the authentication produced. The password was never the prize. The session was.

For years, security teams have built behavioural models around people. We learned that valid credentials only tell so much. A user can have legitimate access to a system and still behave in a way that deserves attention, which is why User and Entity Behaviour Analytics (UEBA) became such an important part of modern security operations today - intersecting data from multiple sources over extended periods of time to build a story indicating risk has become an essential tool to identify malicious actors, both insiders and outsiders.

Now in early access, AxoDetect runs Sigma rules in stream - alerts travel to the SIEM, and full-fidelity logs land in AxoLake, a low-cost security data lake.
