Feb 14, 2019

Cybereason, creators of the award-winning Cyber Defense Platform, today announced it recently was named an IDC Innovator for Artificial Intelligence-Infused Security Solutions. A recently released report titled “IDC Innovators: Artificial Intelligence-Infused Security Solutions, 2018” recognized Cybereason for having developed an innovative software platform helping enterprise customers stay ahead of cyber threats.

“Cybereason is identified as an IDC Innovator because it has developed a proprietary AI Hunting Platform helping hundreds of enterprise customers stay ahead of today's cyber threats. Cybereason's AI-based solution requires minimal training and is purpose-built to identify potential threats in real-time. The multilayered defense platform does behavioral analytics and analysis on all digital actions and interactions happening across the enterprise via the endpoint,” said Cathy Huang, senior research manager for Security and Services Research, IDC Asia/Pacific.

Cybereason’s Cyber Defense Platform is used by security analysts to link together isolated suspicious activities to determine if they are part of a cyber attack. With automated hunting capabilities, as well as a powerful query engine, the solution can analyze eight million events per second, with no downtime or blind spots. The threat hunting solution also uses behavioral detection to determine suspicious and/or malicious activity.

“Artificial intelligence powers our award-winning threat hunting solution, enabling many of the world’s largest companies to root out a wide spectrum of cyber threats, ensuring that the adversaries no longer have an advantage and the defenders of proprietary information are winning the daily fight to protect the proprietary information of their employees, partners and customers,” said Yonatan Striem-Amit, co-founder and CTO, Cybereason.
