💡 HTTP Header Analysis for Threat Detection
Examining HTTP headers beyond User-Agent reveals attack tools and automated scripts. Missing standard headers, unusual ordering, non-standard values, and inconsistencies with claimed client identity all serve as reliable detection signals.
💡 Initial Access Broker Marketplace
Initial access brokers specialize in gaining entry to corporate networks and selling that access to ransomware operators. This specialization creates an efficient criminal marketplace where compromised credentials and VPN access are traded as commodities.
