Vulnerability Exploitations.
Using Behavioral detection, SentinelOne Security Researchers, Dor Dankner and Ran Ben Chetrit developed the tool capable of catching Meltdown exploit. The tool goes beyond all offerings available today, some of which just state if a device is exposed or not.
The patching process for the devastating Meltdown vulnerability has left thousands of enterprises with a predictable, yet unenviable, choice: patch immediately for security and risk system-wide impact or, test the patches against their full stack of software applications while remaining exposed to vulnerability exploitation by attackers.
As a result, the industry at large is in a race: patch and secure the many endpoints that are still unprotected before attackers can weaponize the vulnerabilities. This is especially true for Linux-based systems, where no comprehensive protection solution has been released to date.
This is a race that the security industry needs to run together in order to win – which is why SentinelOne today is releasing a new free tool to prevent Meltdown exploitation while the patching process catches up.
Dubbed Blacksmith, this tool detects the attempted exploitation of Meltdown vulnerability on all Linux systems, empowering Linux admins to stop attacks before they take root.
