What the endpoint feed is for
Hilt's endpoint feed captures file, process, clipboard, and transfer behavior on user devices. It is built for cases where permissions are valid, the user is trusted, and the behavior is still wrong: off-hours access, unusual staging patterns, removable media usage, personal cloud uploads, and shadow AI usage.
That is the gap between classic insider-risk scoring and actual movement prevention. The endpoint feed connects the user, the device, and the file behavior at the syscall layer so the system can reason about what is changing, not only who the user is.
What the endpoint feed captures
| Capability | Why it matters |
|---|
| File I/O and process lineage | Shows how sensitive files are accessed, staged, compressed, and moved |
| Per-user behavioral baselines | Distinguishes normal work from suspicious bursts, timing, and destinations |
| Clipboard and non-file channels | Helps catch shadow AI and copy-paste leakage paths |
| Cross-domain correlation | Joins the user event to cloud and network movement when the chain continues elsewhere |
Where endpoint buyers usually compare Hilt
Endpoint buyers typically compare Hilt with DTEX, Cyberhaven, and the broader insider-risk comparison. The key distinction is that Hilt is designed to connect behavior to the actual data movement and response path, not only to a risk score.
When the endpoint feed is the right starting point
Start here if your urgent concerns are insider threat, shadow AI, removable media, or personal cloud staging. If your first blind spot is cloud workloads, move to the cloud feed. If you need wire-level transfer visibility, move to the network feed.
