Film and media industry attacks are on the rise

According to Forbes, the film, media, and entertainment industries pose a huge opportunity for cybercriminals through intellectual property theft and extortion as well as ransomware. Since the Sony, Netflix and HBO breaches several years ago, the industry has become even more digitised, vastly increasing the potential attack surface for cybercriminals. With third-party contractors adding additional weak links, it’s no surprise that many organisations are looking for centralised cybersecurity management.

Why entertainment, film, and media firms love SenseOn

Minimal effort required to correlate data

The nature of the entertainment industry means that there is a high volume of asset and client data. This, in turn, generates a significant amount of security data. SenseOn correlates all of this data into one usable format so analysts can instantly find out who, what, where, when and how without having to try and link up information from disparate sources.

Direct observation of your network

As security teams are becoming more distributed through remote working, it is becoming even harder to access network information with traditional tools. SenseOn’s Universal Sensor collects data across remote workers, offices, production sites and cloud instances at once with an EPNS service to correlate endpoint information and the network data at the point of being recorded. 

Drastic reduction in blind spots

With critical data comes great responsibility. It is a top priority that there are no security blind spots in an entertainment organisation’s digital estate. Any gap could be an entryway for adversaries to access confidential information. Our Universal Sensor provides specific, granular information without the traffic jam of lots of different tools to stop adversaries from penetrating your estate. 

Reduction of noise

As with many security teams, resources for cyber security within entertainment, film and media organisations are often thinly stretched. As such, there is rarely the capacity to resolve the thousands of alerts that are generated by traditional security tools. Using a highly accurate AI based reasoning framework, SenseOn only brings true positive alerts to the attention of analysts, dramatically reducing security operating costs.
