Cannot Load the Page when trying to access devices list or profiles
Hey all, I've been trying to access the backend to make some changes, and while the elements dashboard logs in ok, the Endpoint protection widget on the dashboard errors and then changes to "No devices", while the Detection and response widget lists the correct number of devices. When I try to go to the devices page it errors with "TX-ID: 0000-7a1nln3fpqyrl37l Unable to fetch saved view" before changing to a full page error that says
"Cannot load the page
If this problem persists please include this error code in troubleshooting with WithSecure™ Error Code: 0000-9hpbcuvnk01r9xnx-epp"
Is this happening to anyone else, maybe related to the AWS outage today or would this be something else I need to directly contact support for? Thanks for the info.
[Insight] How to Spot Early Signs of a Breach — Before It Escalates
Early detection is key to minimizing damage. Here are subtle signs to watch for:
1. Unusual Login Patterns
Logins at odd hours or from unexpected locations can signal compromise.
🛠 WithSecure Elements EDR tracks user behavior anomalies — see how.
2. Sudden Privilege Escalation
Accounts gaining admin rights without a clear reason should raise flags.
3. Unexpected Outbound Traffic
Data exfiltration often starts with small, unnoticed transfers.
🛠 Use WithSecure’s network telemetry and threat intelligence to monitor outbound flows.
📌 Breaches don’t start with fireworks — they start with whispers. Listen closely.
💬 What’s the earliest sign of compromise you’ve ever caught?
[Insight] 3 Questions to Ask When Reviewing Your Cybersecurity Stack
Your cybersecurity stack might be full of tools — but are they working together effectively? Ask yourself:
1. Are My Tools Integrated or Isolated?
Disconnected tools create blind spots.
🛠 WithSecure Elements offers unified visibility across endpoints, cloud, and email — learn more.
2. Do I Have Overlapping Capabilities?
Redundant tools waste budget and complicate response.
🛠 Use WithSecure’s centralized dashboard to identify overlaps and streamline.
3. Can I Detect and Respond in Real Time?
Detection is only half the battle — response speed matters.
🛠 Explore Broad Context Detection for faster, smarter incident handling.
📌 A strong stack isn’t just about quantity — it’s about synergy.
💬 What’s one tool you’ve retired or replaced recently? Why?
[Insight] How to Identify Living-off-the-Land (LotL) Attacks — Without a Sandbox
LotL attacks use legitimate tools already in your environment, making them hard to detect with traditional methods.
What to Look For:
- PowerShell or WMI used by non-admin users
- Scripts running from temp folders
- Scheduled tasks created without IT approval
🛠 WithSecure Elements EDR detects suspicious behavior even when no malware is present — learn more.
Why It Matters:
LotL attacks bypass many traditional defenses. Behavioral detection is your best line of defense.
📌 You don’t need a sandbox — just visibility into how your tools are being used.
💬 Have you encountered a LotL attack? How did you detect it?
[Insight] Did You Know? Most Breaches Start with Misconfigured Tools
It’s not always zero-days or sophisticated malware — often, it’s a misconfigured setting that opens the door.
Common Misconfigurations:
- Overly permissive firewall rules
- Disabled or outdated endpoint protection
- Unrestricted PowerShell access
🛠 WithSecure Elements helps you audit and enforce secure configurations — see how.
What You Can Do:
- Run regular policy audits
- Use templates for secure baselines
- Monitor for deviations from expected behavior
📌 Security isn’t just about what you add — it’s about how well it’s configured.
💬 What’s the most surprising misconfiguration you’ve found in your environment?
[Insight] 3 Ways to Detect Lateral Movement Without Full Network Visibility
Even without full network telemetry, you can still catch lateral movement with the right endpoint insights:
1. Monitor for Unusual Remote Access Tools
Look for tools like PsExec, RDP, or SMB being used in unexpected ways or by non-admin users.
🛠 WithSecure Elements EDR can flag suspicious use of legitimate tools — learn more here.
2. Correlate Logins Across Devices
Repeated logins from the same user across multiple endpoints in a short time window can indicate lateral movement.
🛠 Use endpoint logs and Broad Context Detection to correlate activity.
3. Watch for Credential Dumping Behavior
Tools like Mimikatz often precede lateral movement. Detecting these early can stop attackers in their tracks.
📌 You don’t need full network visibility — just smart endpoint telemetry and behavioral analytics.
