Your endpoint and perimeter tools are essential, and they stay. Lumetrace adds what they cannot see: passive, protocol-aware visibility inside the network, and a measured answer to what your current stack actually catches.
Ask your team what crossed the firewall last night and you will get an answer. Ask what one server said to another server at three in the morning, and in most enterprises there is no record to consult. Internal traffic is where an intruder does the work that matters: finding the file shares, reaching the finance system, stepping into the plant network. Without network detection, none of it is being examined, so none of it raises a hand.
With no network evidence, the first notice tends to come from outside: a bank flagging fraudulent transfers, a regulator asking a question you cannot answer, a customer whose data has surfaced, or a ransom note on a Monday morning.
Credential theft, customer databases, contracts, drawings and process recipes. Exfiltration happens on the network. If nothing reads the network, the theft leaves nothing you can go back and examine.
Ransomware does not begin with encryption. It begins with reconnaissance, credential reuse across shares, a command-and-control channel and backup deletion. In a plant it can end with a write command to a controller that should only ever be read. Each step is a network action first and a business loss second.
None of this needs a nation-state adversary. It needs only that nobody is watching the inside. That is a solvable problem: a passive sensor on a mirror port, reading traffic you already have, so the next incident comes with evidence and the one after that comes with a warning.
EDR, MDR and firewalls do critical work at the endpoint and perimeter. Yet lateral movement, command-and-control, data exfiltration and OT control commands all play out across the network — often beyond an endpoint agent's view, and on devices (PLCs, RTUs, IoT) that can't run one at all. Lumetrace is the complementary layer that watches the wire, so a coordinated attack has nowhere to hide.
A passive network sensor that strengthens — never replaces — your existing security investments.
Unified visibility across enterprise IT and industrial OT/ICS, including unmanaged and agentless devices.
Deploys on a SPAN or mirror port, or on a network tap where a switch cannot mirror. Never inline and never an agent, so the sensor is not in the path of a single production packet. It does need a mirror configured on your switch, which is a planned change on your side, and we say so rather than calling the whole job zero-touch.
Protocol-aware network detection that reconstructs the full kill chain and explains it in plain language, mapped to MITRE ATT&CK and ATT&CK for ICS.
Three distinct problems, not one: attacks against your AI systems, AI used as an attacker’s tool, and staff sending your data to AI services. Every finding is mapped to MITRE ATLAS and carries the evidence behind it.
Prompt injection, insecure output handling and model overreliance live in the prompt and tool-call layer, which no passive sensor can see. We say so rather than claim them — closing that gap needs a different class of telemetry, not a detector we have quietly omitted.
These are two different failures and most vendors sell them as one. Rogue is your approved AI doing something it was never approved to do, which is a scope question the network answers well. Drift is your approved AI still doing its job, worse, which is a quality question the network can only indicate. We report them separately, and every finding states how much of the picture we actually have.
Content fields are rejected on arrival by name, not filtered afterwards. A number derived from packets is never presented to you as a quality score.
We safely emulate a real attacker's kill chain in your staging environment using established, authorized tooling, with Lumetrace as the ground-truth referee. You receive a plain-English report comparing what actually happened to what your existing tools detected.
The questions enterprises ask us first, answered without sales language.
NDR means network detection and response. It reads the traffic moving inside your network, not just what crosses the perimeter or what happens on a managed laptop. Without it, an intruder already inside has no observer: lateral movement, command-and-control and data theft all happen on the network. Most enterprises can describe their firewall and endpoint coverage in detail, but cannot say what one internal server said to another overnight.
Ransomware is not one event. Before encryption there is reconnaissance, credential use across file shares, a command-and-control channel back to the operator, staging of data for extortion, and very often deletion of your backups. Every one of those steps is visible on the network. Lumetrace surfaces that sequence as a single story, so there is a chance to act during staging instead of reading a ransom note on Monday.
C2 is the channel an intruder uses to control a machine inside your network. Modern C2 is built to look ordinary: long gaps between check-ins, ordinary ports, real cloud domains, encrypted payloads. We detect the behaviour of the channel rather than relying only on a blocklist, including low-and-slow beacons built to defeat volume-based alerting, and DNS and ICMP channels used to slip past web filtering.
Stealing data is a network event. Customer records, contracts, drawings, source code and process recipes all have to travel somewhere. We watch for unfamiliar destinations, unusual volumes, encoded or tunnelled transfers, and uploads to unsanctioned cloud and AI services, and we report what actually left rather than only that something looked odd.
No, and we would not sell it that way. Endpoint and perimeter tools do essential work and they stay. Lumetrace adds the layer they cannot see, including the devices that can never run an agent at all: PLCs, RTUs, printers, cameras and IoT. It is deliberately complementary, and the Detection-Gap Assessment is designed to make your existing tools measurably better.
Enterprises come to us in one of two states, and they need opposite first steps. Tell us which one you are in and we will not waste your time on the other.
Odd outbound connections nobody can explain. A finding your managed service closed as inconclusive. A server that reboots on its own. An auditor's question you could not answer. If you are already worried, what you need first is evidence, not a twelve-month procurement cycle.
Your defenses may well be sound. The honest question is which stages of a real intrusion your current stack would actually catch, and no datasheet can answer that. So we measure it: an authorized attacker's kill chain, run in your staging environment, scored stage by stage against what your own tools reported.
We work with the kinds of enterprises that cannot afford a quiet week of unexplained traffic: banking, payments and insurance; logistics, shipping and port operations; manufacturing and utilities with live OT; healthcare; professional services holding client data; and government-linked operators. If you hold data worth stealing or run a process worth stopping, the network layer is not optional.
Lumetrace is an Asia-based cybersecurity company working with enterprises in Singapore and Hong Kong. Whichever market you are in, you deal with the people who built the detection, in your own working hours.
Add the network layer to your defense and measure your real detection coverage across IT, OT and AI. One conversation, in your time zone, with the engineers who built it.
Talk to us at [email protected]Lumetrace builds network-layer detection and adversary-emulation capability for IT, OT and AI environments. We help enterprises see more of their own network, validate the defenses they have already invested in, and close the gaps that matter, without ripping anything out.
We are engineers, not a reseller. The detection is ours, the reports are written by the people who built it, and we will tell you plainly what we cannot see as well as what we can.
