Metabase Q: Conducting global network scans and endpoint threat responses

Metabase QAn Intellyx Brain Candy Brief

Metabase Q offers an endpoint security platform that hunts for threats through a combination of network observability and DLP (data loss prevention) monitoring, then issues remediation recommendations and scripts to block exploits.

Their cloud-based Batuta platform offers a “proactive security” visibility and alerting dashboard for thousands of lightweight agents running on a global network. That’s useful for risk assurance and compliance auditing, but the real orchestration happens behind the scenes, when a region or group of endpoints starts to deviate from security policies, or demonstrates a threat chain in progress.

A security response incident can then be kicked off in conjunction with the end customer’s SIEM and ITSM platforms of choice, zeroing in and providing instructions to block external or internal threat actors, as well as deploying software patches and scripts in an automated or on-command fashion across the affected group of nodes.
