💡 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.
💡 Insider Threat Indicators
Insider threats — whether malicious or negligent — account for a significant percentage of data breaches. Behavioral analytics detecting unusual access patterns, data downloads, and privilege escalation help identify insider risks before damage occurs.
