Use Case

Prevent Living off the Land & UAP Attacks

Enterprise environments rely on built-in Windows utilities, remote administration tools, signed drivers, and scripts to operate efficiently. These tools are trusted by default and allowed to run because they are necessary for daily business. That trust creates exposure. Unrestricted execution expands the attack surface. Effective prevention starts with execution control.

Built-In Trust Is the Attack Surface

Living off the Land (LOTL) and Unwanted Application Practice (UAP) attacks do not introduce obvious malware. Instead, attackers misuse legitimate, signed tools that already exist inside your environment. These tools can be used to bypass controls, disable protections, escalate privileges, and move laterally — all while appearing legitimate.

Stop Abuse of Trusted Tools

MagicSword controls what is allowed to run on your systems, blocking tools that attackers have repeatedly misused in real-world breaches. Execution is enforced by role and by endpoint, so only the tools truly required for a specific team or system are permitted. Abused software is stopped unless explicitly approved.

  • Living off the Land attack prevention
  • Unwanted Application Practice protection
  • Continuous RMM abuse mitigation
  • Precise signed binary abuse defense
  • Proactive BYOVD protection

Prevention That Keeps Business Running

No broad denial policies. No operational chaos. Prevention-first security eliminates unnecessary execution risk while preserving productivity.

The Outcome

Organizations gain:

  • Reduced endpoint attack surface
  • Fewer alerts tied to abused tools
  • Lower incident response workload
  • Practical Zero Trust endpoint security
  • Business continuity without disruption
