BlackFog Enterprise Console: Real-Time Device Monitoring, Threat Hunting, and Breach Reporting
When the Irish HSE suffered the Conti ransomware attack in 2021, investigators later found that data exfiltration had been occurring for weeks before encryption — completely undetected because no single dashboard showed outbound data flows across all endpoints. The BlackFog Enterprise Console at console.blackfog.com solves this visibility gap, providing real-time monitoring of every protected device, every blocked exfiltration attempt, and every threat detected across your entire organisation — managed by Kyanite Blue as your dedicated security partner.
Average dwell time before ransomware encryption: 5 days — BlackFog detects exfiltration in real time.
Real-Time Device Monitoring
The Enterprise Console provides a live view of every protected endpoint in your organisation. Each device displays its current protection status, agent version, last check-in time, and real-time activity. Devices that are offline, running outdated agents, or experiencing issues are flagged immediately. For organisations with distributed workforces — remote workers, multiple offices, field staff — the console provides the single pane of glass that confirms every device is protected, regardless of location or network connection. Kyanite Blue monitors the console continuously, escalating any device health issues before they create protection gaps.
- Live status for every protected endpoint across all locations
- Agent health monitoring with automatic alerting for offline or outdated devices
- Network activity visualisation showing real-time data flows per device
- Geographic view: see where your devices are and where data is flowing
- Group management: organise devices by department, location, or risk profile
Event Tracking and Forensic Detail
Every blocked exfiltration attempt is recorded with full forensic detail: the source device, the destination IP and domain, the data type detected, the volume attempted, the threat classification, and the blocking action taken. This event data serves dual purposes — operational security teams use it to investigate potential incidents, and compliance teams use it as evidence for regulatory audits. Events are searchable, filterable, and exportable. Kyanite Blue reviews all events as part of ongoing monitoring, identifying patterns that indicate targeted attack campaigns or persistent threats requiring escalated response.
Threat Hunting Capabilities
Beyond automated blocking, the Enterprise Console provides threat hunting tools that enable proactive investigation of suspicious patterns. Kyanite Blue analysts use these capabilities to identify low-and-slow exfiltration campaigns, emerging threat actor infrastructure, and anomalous device behaviour that may indicate compromised endpoints. Threat hunting queries can span the entire device fleet, identifying commonalities across blocked events that suggest coordinated attack campaigns. This proactive approach catches sophisticated threats that automated detection alone would miss.
- Cross-device pattern analysis: identify coordinated exfiltration campaigns
- Destination reputation investigation: deep-dive into suspicious transfer targets
- Temporal analysis: detect low-and-slow exfiltration attempts over extended periods
- Device behaviour profiling: identify endpoints exhibiting anomalous outbound activity
- Threat intelligence correlation: match blocked events against emerging threat actor TTPs
Breach Reporting and Compliance Evidence
The console generates audit-ready reports tailored to specific regulatory frameworks and board reporting requirements. Kyanite Blue configures reporting templates for each client's compliance obligations — whether that is NHS DSPT evidence, FCA operational resilience documentation, MGA licence audit packs, PCI DSS monitoring evidence, or board-level executive summaries. Reports include blocked event summaries, trend analysis, device coverage confirmation, and policy compliance status. Quarterly compliance reports are delivered as standard; ad-hoc reports are available on demand for incident investigations or regulatory requests.
- Regulatory-aligned reporting: templates for GDPR, PCI DSS, FCA, MGA, NHS DSPT
- Board-level executive summaries with headline metrics and trend analysis
- Incident investigation reports with full forensic timelines
- Device coverage reports confirming protection across the entire estate
- Policy compliance reports showing enforcement status and exceptions
Frequently Asked Questions
Who manages the Enterprise Console?
Kyanite Blue manages the Enterprise Console for all clients. We handle device monitoring, alert triage, threat hunting, and reporting. Clients receive regular reports and immediate escalation for critical events, without needing to log into the console themselves — though read-only access is available on request.
Can we see the console ourselves?
Yes. Kyanite Blue provides read-only console access to clients who request it. Most clients prefer to receive our managed reports and escalations rather than monitoring the console directly, but the option is always available.
How quickly are blocked events visible in the console?
Events appear in real time. When an exfiltration attempt is blocked on any device, the event is visible in the console within seconds. Kyanite Blue monitoring operates 24/7, with critical events triggering immediate escalation to our security team.
