Network Feed

Wire-level telemetry for egress, lateral movement, and cross-boundary transfers.

Hilt's network feed captures wire-level transfer behavior and correlates it with cloud and endpoint telemetry. It helps security teams understand where data is going, how unusual the movement is, and how the transfer relates to the user or workload activity that triggered it.

What the network feed is for

Hilt's network feed captures egress, lateral transfer, and cross-boundary movement at the wire level. It is not trying to be a generic NDR console or a replacement for a proxy. It is designed to answer a narrower question: where is sensitive data going, how unusual is that movement, and how does that transfer relate to the workload or user activity that preceded it?

That distinction matters because network alerts are often disconnected from the file reads, process chains, or service behavior that caused the transfer. Hilt joins those layers so the network event is part of the same movement story.

What the network feed captures

CapabilityWhy it matters
Egress destinations and transfer volumeHighlights abnormal external movement patterns
Cross-boundary and lateral flowsShows when data crosses trust zones, segments, or regions
Metadata without full decryption dependencyPreserves visibility without requiring inline interception everywhere
Correlation with cloud and endpoint signalsTurns network activity into an explainable movement chain

Where network buyers usually compare Hilt

Network buyers often start with the DDR comparison hub, the data exfiltration prevention guide, and the Cyberhaven alternative page. Those pages clarify why proxy-only or user-space-only coverage can leave blind spots for actual movement prevention.

When the network feed is the right starting point

Start here if your pain is outbound transfers, lateral movement, cross-region copying, or unsanctioned egress. If the core blind spot is the workload itself, review the cloud feed. If it begins with a user or device, review the endpoint feed.

FAQ

Common questions about this page

How is Hilt different from DLP?

Hilt focuses on runtime behavior and data movement rather than only content rules on known channels. It is designed to catch anomalous transfers even when a user or service technically had permission to access the data.

Who should evaluate Hilt first?

Hilt is best suited for security teams in regulated or performance-sensitive environments that need faster containment for insider risk, exfiltration, and runtime data movement.

Where should a buyer start?

Most buyers should start with a direct alternative page like Cyberhaven or DTEX, then move into the category comparison hub and the product feed pages that match the highest-risk layer in their environment.
