High-Value Targeting
See if attackers can reach what matters most
Security teams know what’s important — but traditional tools don’t. High-Value Targeting enables NodeZero® to automatically identify and test paths to the users, systems, and assets that matter most — like executives, domain controllers, and regulated infrastructure. No tagging. No tuning. Just real-time business risk insights grounded in how attackers operate.
Real-time insight into your most valuable assets
High-Value Targeting uses GenAI and graph-based reasoning to classify which users and systems are critical — from CFO accounts to privileged infrastructure. It then prioritizes and tests access paths to those entities, highlighting business-impacting risks as they’re discovered. Results are fully integrated across the platform — and fully explainable.
What’s happening behind the scenes
Autonomous high-value asset identification
NodeZero ingests AD structure, credential patterns, and file system context — then uses GenAI to infer which users and systems are business-critical based on names, group memberships, access paths, and organizational unit (OU) hierarchy — the way departments and roles are structured inside Active Directory.
Prioritized testing based on real attacker logic
Once targets are classified, NodeZero elevates paths toward them — performing lateral movement, privilege escalation, and chaining exposed credentials to see if attackers could reach sensitive systems or identities.
Clear tagging across the UI
High-value targets are flagged in the Attack Graph, Real-Time View (RTV), Findings, Impacts, and Executive Reports — making it easy to see what’s at stake and why.
Explainability through GenAI Action Logs
Every high-value classification is accompanied by a GenAI-generated explanation. These logs reveal why the entity matters — like “executive credential reuse,” “sensitive OU,” or “shared access to a regulated system.”
Why this changes the remediation conversation
You identify business risk — not just paths
NodeZero shows whether attackers can reach your most sensitive accounts and infrastructure — and how.
You get answers without tagging or tuning
No need for manual labeling or custom rules. NodeZero figures it out during the test.
You make reports that matter to leadership
Findings are linked to business impact — and included in summaries ready for execs and boards.
You align remediation with what’s at stake
Security teams can focus on protecting what attackers are most likely to target.
