Advanced Data Pilfering

Validate real data exposure — not just file access

Most tools flag exposed files. NodeZero® goes further — using Advanced Data Pilfering to uncover, classify, and validate the business risk of sensitive data exposures during real attacks. While traditional Data Security Posture Management (DSPM) tools focus on discovering and cataloging sensitive data, NodeZero simulates how attackers would actually find and exploit it. 

Inside the attack: what’s actually happening

Autonomously discovers unprotected data

NodeZero identifies sensitive files across SMB shares, SYSVOL, config folders, and cloud storage — without manual tagging or regex rules.

Classifies business risk using secure LLMs

Credentials, source code, contracts, financials, and PII are identified through natural language processing — even when buried in logs or embedded in spreadsheets.

Connects data to attacker behavior

Pilfered data is integrated into the attack graph to simulate privilege escalation, lateral movement, and crown jewel access — not just exposure.

Validates exfiltration — safely

NodeZero mimics real-world data theft, including slow exfil or stealthy access — revealing whether your defenses would detect a breach attempt.

Surfaces risk across your workflows

Exposures appear in the Data tab, Weaknesses, Impacts, and Sankey diagram — with new filters like “Trade Secrets” or “Material Financials.” Actionable findings are exportable and tracked over time.

Context that turns exposure into risk

NodeZero discovers unprotected data — then tests how that data fuels escalation and impact. Using local LLMs for semantic analysis, it identifies valuable credentials and business-sensitive content hidden across shares, configs, and logs. Findings are tagged by risk type and linked into live attack paths for full exploit visibility.

Why it changes how you think about data risk

You focus on the data that matters

NodeZero flags not just what’s exposed — but what’s valuable and exploitable.

You connect data to real risk

Sensitive content is tied directly to attacker behavior, not abstract scores.

You reduce manual triage

No regex tuning, no tagging, no guesswork — NodeZero automates prioritization.

You prove data resilience under pressure

Safe simulations validate how exposed data can fuel real attacks.

What security leaders can now prove

We’ve identified exploitable data — not just files

NodeZero validates which exposures could actually lead to breach.

We’ve cut data breach risk at the source

Credentials, IP, and financials are discovered, tested, and resolved.

We’re making DSPM operational

No agents, no policies — just real-world validation through live attack simulation.
