Cyberattacks aren’t just about breaching defenses—they’re about causing lasting damage. Ransomware encrypts files. Malware manipulates system settings. Fileless attacks hide in memory. Even if you detect a threat, undoing its harm can take days, cost thousands, and strain IT teams. SentinelOne’s Rollback Mitigation Action solves this by automating damage reversal. Here’s how it works—and why pairing it with Gradient Cyber’s Managed XDR services is a game-changer for mid-market businesses.
Rollback Mitigation Action is a feature within SentinelOne’s endpoint protection platform that acts like a “time machine” for your systems. When a threat is detected, it doesn’t just isolate the attack—it automatically reverses every change the malicious activity caused. This includes:
Unlike traditional antivirus tools that focus on blocking threats, SentinelOne addresses the aftermath, ensuring attacks leave no trace.
Real-Time Behavioral Detection
SentinelOne monitors endpoints for suspicious activity, such as unauthorized file encryption or unusual process behavior. Its AI models analyze patterns to identify both known and zero-day threats.
Automatic Threat Containment
When a threat is detected, the platform immediately isolates the affected device from the network to prevent lateral movement.
Damage Reversal
Here’s where Rollback Mitigation shines. SentinelOne uses pre-attack system snapshots and activity logs to revert all changes made by the attack. For example:
Mid-market businesses often lack the resources of large enterprises. A single ransomware incident can cost upwards of $200,000 in downtime, recovery, and reputational harm (Darwin's Data). Manual remediation efforts stretch IT teams thin, delaying normal operations. SentinelOne’s Rollback Mitigation Action addresses three critical gaps:
Speed
Automated reversal takes minutes, not days. Employees stay productive, and attackers gain no leverage.
Cost Efficiency
Eliminate expensive third-party recovery services or negotiations with ransomware groups.
Comprehensive Protection
Rollback works across ransomware, fileless attacks, and even “living-off-the-land” techniques that abuse legitimate tools like PowerShell.
While SentinelOne’s Rollback Mitigation is powerful, maximizing its value requires expertise. Gradient Cyber’s Managed Extended Detection and Response (XDR) services layer human insight onto automated tools:
24/7 Threat Hunting
We monitor endpoints, cloud workloads, and SaaS apps to catch threats SentinelOne might not yet see.
Custom Playbooks
Tailored response protocols ensure Rollback Mitigation aligns with your business’s risk tolerance.
Unified Coverage
We integrate SentinelOne with network, cloud, and SaaS protections for end-to-end visibility.
For example, if an attacker exploits a misconfigured AWS S3 bucket to deploy endpoint malware, our team correlates cloud and endpoint alerts to trigger Rollback while securing the cloud environment.
SentinelOne’s Rollback Mitigation Action is a leap forward in endpoint protection—but cybersecurity isn’t a “set and forget” solution. Mid-market companies need partners who can manage complexity, adapt to new threats, and align defenses with business goals.
Gradient Cyber’s Managed XDR services ensure SentinelOne operates at peak effectiveness while bridging gaps in your security stack. From endpoint recovery to cloud incident response, we turn cutting-edge tools into tangible business outcomes.
Don’t wait for the next breach to test your recovery plan. Contact Gradient Cyber today to deploy SentinelOne with expert-managed XDR—and ensure every cyberattack rolls back into oblivion.
