Overview | EDR Feature

Detection Capabilities

Command-Line Audit

Tracks and logs command-line activity across systems. Since many attacks align with specific stages of the MITRE ATT&CK framework, this capability enables security teams to detect suspicious behavior, investigate threats, and create detections based on real-world attacker techniques.

Memory Protection

Provides in-memory exploit detection and prevention to defend against fileless attacks, shellcode injections, and other memory-based threats that traditional signature-based tools may miss.

Registry Monitoring

Continuously monitors changes to the Windows registry—a frequent target for persistence and configuration manipulation—helping detect unauthorized modifications and ensure system integrity.

Behavioral, Signature & TTP-Based Detection

Combines traditional signature-based detection with machine learning, behavioral analysis, and sector-specific TTP heatmaps for layered defense. While signatures quickly catch known threats, behavioral analytics detect anomalies and previously unseen attack patterns.

Autoruns Detection

Identifies and monitors applications and scripts configured to run automatically at startup – a common tactic used by adversaries for persistence.

COM Object Surveillance

Detects and analyzes the abuse of Component Object Model (COM) objects, which are often used by attackers to evade detection or maintain persistence stealthily.

OSQuery Integration

OSQuery provides endpoint visibility by allowing security teams to query infrastructure as if it were a database. With SQL-like syntax, it supports live and scheduled queries across endpoints to gather data on processes, user activity, installed software, network connections, and more—empowering threat hunters with flexible, on-demand visibility for investigation, detection, and compliance.

    Malware Scanning

    Scans specific files or directories on the host using the Elastic Defend malware engine, in accordance with policy settings such as blocklists and prevention modes.

    Explore the Anomaly Detection Feature

    Anomaly Detection Feature

    Security teams today face overwhelming volumes of log and telemetry data—from infrastructure, system, and application sources. While traditional tools like filtering, detection rules, and dashboards help distill this information, they’re often limited in scope. Filters require you to know exactly what you’re looking for. Dashboards rely on constant human monitoring. Rules are powerful but difficult to fine-tune without generating noise or missing critical edge cases.

    Environments evolve quickly, and so do attacker tactics. That’s why modern detection must go beyond static methods to identify subtle or unexpected behavior changes that signal real threats.

    Overview | Anomaly Detection Feature

    Intelligent, Real-Time Monitoring at Scale

    Black Cell ESM’s Anomaly Detection module brings intelligence into the detection process through machine learning. Built for large-scale, high-throughput environments, it continuously monitors logs, user behavior, network traffic, and application events to detect deviations from normal activity in real time.

    By combining both supervised and unsupervised ML techniques, the system can identify patterns that traditional, signature-based tools often miss—such as insider threats, privilege abuse, or slow-burning, low-signal attacks. The result: smarter, faster, and more accurate detection across your digital estate.

    Black Cell ESM’s Anomaly Detection empowers your SOC with continuous, low-latency insight into what’s happening across your environment—no ruleset or manual filtering required. Just smart, adaptable detection that keeps getting better over time.

    Key Features

    Time-Series Anomaly Detection

    Flags suspicious patterns in behavior over time—like unexpected login times, unusual access spikes, or data exfiltration attempts.

    Reduced Analyst Workload

    Automates the identification of high-risk events, helping teams focus on what matters most and cut through alert noise.

    Customizable ML Jobs

    Easily tune models and create organization-specific ML jobs based on your environment, user patterns, and risk profile.

    Temporal & Population Analysis

    Learns what “normal” looks like for users and systems, then surfaces deviations—making it ideal for detecting anomalies in user behavior and system activity.

    Insider Threat Monitoring

    Identifies unauthorized access, misuse of privileges, and stealthy internal activity that often flies under the radar.

    Network & Endpoint Anomaly Detection

    Detects irregular traffic flows, behavioral outliers, and suspicious endpoint activities across your infrastructure.

    Explore the Deception feature

    Deception Feature

    Cyber Deception allows for the placement of traps with no business value; “normal” is defined as no interaction. Its value lies in being probed, attacked, or compromised. Any interaction is abnormal and thus actionable. The power dynamic can be reversed when utilizing deception tactics, as previously the attacker needed only to achieve success on one occasion, whereas the defender was obligated to maintain constant success.Now, if the attacker interacts with a honey object even once, you have accomplished the hardest part of security, which is detecting the adversary.

    In addition to existing solutions, the ESM system makes extensive use of deception-based techniques to further enhance the security posture of your organisation.

    Overview | Deception Feature

    Employed Techniques

    Low-Medium interaction Honeypots

    Low-Medium interaction honeypots are a great starting point in your Cyber Deception journey. They are simple to set up, provide great logging, require little maintenance and we do not have to worry about increasing the attack surface. Supported services include FTP, SSH, HTTP and RDP.  An excellent example of a medium interaction honey service is deploying a honey HTTP service that hosts a simulated internal login page. This approach provides valuable intelligence on the attackers’ level of progression based on the credentials they attempt to use. Alternatively, we can opt for minimal interactivity by setting up honeypots that simply trigger alerts when they are scanned.

    Honey Accounts

    A Honey Account is a user account within the environment that serves no functional purpose but is designed to detect malicious activity. These accounts are highly effective for identifying otherwise challenging-to-detect attacks, such as password spraying, Kerberoasting, or AS-REP Roasting.

    Honey Credentials

    Credential dumping remains one of the most commonly employed techniques by attackers. To mitigate this, decoy credentials can be strategically placed in memory or broadcasted via LLMNR to mislead and monitor adversaries seeking such information.

    Honey Files

    We can create files with enticing names, such as passwords.xlsx or network.drawio, and place them in locations where no legitimate user is expected to access them. This allows us to monitor and detect any unauthorized interactions.

    Honey Folders

    Folders can be created and configured to trigger alerts upon access or opening.

    Fake Social Media Accounts

    Engaging attackers during the OSINT phase of their operation can be achieved by creating social media accounts (e.g., LinkedIn or Twitter) and disseminating false information. This strategy ensures that their entire operation is based on fabricated data. A particularly effective approach involves crafting a fictitious IT administrator persona, who projects expertise in a technology that the organization does not actually utilize.
