Inside the Trap: What Happens When an Attacker Hits Your Deception Layer

Fidelis Elevate®

Think Like the Adversary.
Be Ready for Anything.

An open, active XDR platform that centralizes security intelligence for IT, IoT, data centers, and cloud into a single view.

Attack Surfaces Keep
Growing. Your Team
Does Not.

Digital transformation keeps expanding the attack surface while adversaries grow more sophisticated. Staff and resources stay flat, or shrink. Fidelis Elevate® automates security operations and puts contextual information in defenders’ hands.

Fidelis Security® has been Protecting Leading Enterprises Worldwide for over 20 years

The Only XDR Platform
Built to Defend Against
Evolving Threats

Endpoint Security, Network Security, Deception, and Active Directory protection in a single platform.

Fidelis Network®

See what others miss. Fidelis Network® combines automated, risk-aware terrain mapping with patented Deep Session Inspection to uncover hidden threats and find adversaries where they hide.

Fidelis Endpoint®

Fidelis Endpoint® monitors and evaluates every endpoint event across Windows, Linux, and Mac systems to detect and stop attacks before they move laterally across your network.

Fidelis Deception®

Make cyber adversaries play by your rules. Fidelis Deception® reshapes your cyber terrain, giving you a distinct advantage over threats while ensuring a resilient environment.

Active Directory Intercept™

Protect your AD environment from credential theft and privilege abuse.

Purpose-built for proactive cyber defense

Open. Active. Proactive.

Fidelis Elevate® treats defense as a continuous cycle of investigation and discovery. Threat intelligence, analytics, and threat hunting help uncover the threats targeting your environment, giving security teams the context to continuously strengthen defenses and neutralize threats before they disrupt business operations.

How Fidelis Elevate® Works

Visibility, Detection, and Deception in One Platform.

Step 1

See Everything

Map Your Terrain Continuously

Continuously map terrain across on-premises and cloud networks with a real-time inventory and risk profile. Identify and classify managed and unmanaged assets across on-premises, cloud, and endpoints.

Step 2

Detect with Context

Turn Weak Signals into High-Confidence Detections

Automated analytic models based on the MITRE ATT&CK framework correlate weak signals of threat activity into high-confidence detections. Each detection arrives with event context and a timeline for faster investigation.

Step 3

Deceive

Make Attackers Work Harder

Automatically deploy dynamic deception layers, including cloud deception and Active Directory deceptive objects. By altering exploitable terrain, deception raises the cost and risk for attackers while defenders study their moves.

Step 4

Single Source of Truth

One View Across Your Security Stack

Consolidate data and risk from NDR, EDR, IT/OT, vulnerability scans, Active Directory, and more. Out-of-the-box integrations and a comprehensive API extend the value of tools you already own.

Benefits of Fidelis Elevate®

Give Your Team the Power to

Prioritize:Focus on the risks that matter

Risk-Based Prioritization
Calculate risk from three factors: asset coverage, the asset’s
importance to the organization, and the severity of current
events. An AI-based Threat Score and MITRE ATT&CK tags
show which assets and activity need action first, including
shadow IT.

Anticipate:See the attack before it happens

Attack Simulation

Run blue team analysis to see how an attacker could reach a critical asset, or red team analysis to follow lateral movement from a high-risk asset. Multi-hop analysis shows the paths, so you can isolate critical assets before an attack starts.

Respond:Contain and recover faster

Automated Response
Use scripts, playbooks, and AI/ML-powered detections and responses to act quickly. Maintain business continuity through an attack and return affected systems to normal operations as soon as possible.

Scale:Do more with the team you have

Operational Efficiency
Improve detection and response speed with the same or fewer resources. High-fidelity conclusions help eliminate alert fatigue.

XDR Coverage

Threat Protection Offered by Fidelis
Elevate®

Detect Hidden Threats in Complex Traffic

Patented Deep Session Inspection inspects traffic across all ports and protocols, with real-time decryption. It exposes threats in nested files, encrypted traffic, and ephemeral containerized workloads. Sandboxing adds execution analysis and ML-based malware detection.

Prevent Data Exfiltration

Network DLP identifies and blocks attempts to move data out of your environment, wherever they originate. Visibility into all ports and protocols, with more content and context than netflow, closes the gaps exfiltration relies on.

Stop Active Directory and Lateral Movement Attacks

Fidelis Active Directory Intercept™ combines AD-aware network detection, integrated AD deception, and AD log and event monitoring. Once an attacker looking for lateral movement touches a deception layer, you gain control of the engagement.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why isn't combining EDR and NDR enough for XDR?

Pairing only those two tools leaves gaps: blind spots across the landscape, delayed detection, more false positives, and missed multi-vector attacks. A complete XDR solution includes EDR, NDR, deception, and AD security, with integrations into SIEM, SOAR, and cloud security platforms.

Which tools does Fidelis Elevate® integrate with?

Common integrations include SOAR (Splunk, Palo Alto Cortex XDR, D3, Respond), SIEM (Splunk, IBM QRadar, Devo, HPE ArcSight), packet brokers (Gigamon, F5, A10), EDR (SentinelOne), and SSE (Zscaler). Threat intelligence integrations include ReversingLabs, McAfee, SecondWrite, Carbon Black, FireEye NX, and Palo Alto NGFW.

Can Fidelis Elevate® extend to cloud environments?

Yes. Organizations can extend visibility and terrain mapping across clouds with Fidelis CloudPassage Halo® discovery and inventory.

How is Fidelis Elevate® deployed and managed?

Its products can be used together or independently. The CommandPost interface handles security configuration and management and is delivered as an appliance or as a service. It also stores data and metadata, giving defenders retrospective analysis and better threat hunting capabilities.
