  • Updated

 

The Endpoint Scanner is currently available for Windows. macOS and Linux versions are coming soon.

 

Executing the endpoint scanner with your EDR:

What is Intezer's Live Endpoint Scanner?

Intezer's Live Endpoint Scanner is a unique feature that scans your machine's memory to help find any traces of advanced in-memory threats such as malicious code injections, packed and fileless malware, or any unrecognized code.

You can learn more about the scanner on Conduct Live Endpoint Analysis.

 

When should you use the Live Endpoint Scanner? 

We recommend executing the scanner on hosts within your organization:

1. During incident response, to check for in-memory or fileless threats. If you connected your EDR, Intezer would recommend scanning for fileless threats in some instances, such as suspicious scripts, behavior, or potential fileless threats. 

2. During incident response, when you assess an incident's scope by scanning additional endpoints.

3. For proactive hunting, occasionally scan for infected machines within the organization. 

 

How do you run the Live Endpoint Scanner? 

Intezer utilizes the remote scripting capabilities available in the EDRs (SentinelOne's RSO and CrowdStrike's RTR) and doesn't require any installation. We provide a PowerShell script that is compatible with the EDRs. The script downloads Intezer's Endpoint Scanner executable to a temporary directory on the suspicious endpoint, executes it and then deletes it from the endpoint.
