New service from BlackBerry's Threat
Research and Intelligence Team reduces unknowns to enhance
detection and response
NEW
YORK, Oct. 26, 2022 /CNW/ -- Today, at the
BlackBerry Security Summit, BlackBerry Limited (NYSE: BB; TSX:
BB) announced the release of its new Cyber Threat Intelligence
(CTI) offering, a professional threat intelligence service to
help customers prevent, detect, and effectively respond to
cyberattacks.
Delivered on a quarterly subscription basis, BlackBerry's new
CTI service provides actionable intelligence on targeted attacks
and cybercrime-motivated threat actors and campaigns, as well as
intelligence reports specific to industries, regions, and
countries. BlackBerry's CTI will save organizations time and
resources by focusing on specific areas of interest relevant to a
company's security goals.
"Being cyber resilient means making the right decisions at the
right time," said Ismael Valenzuela,
Vice President, Threat Research and Intelligence at BlackBerry.
"Cyberattacks are becoming more sophisticated and threat actors
move quickly. BlackBerry's Cyber Threat Intelligence delivers the
details needed to improve detection and response, so organizations
can stay on top of cyber threat activity and anticipate any next
moves."
"More businesses are recognizing the value of threat
intelligence and the distinctive benefits it brings to security
teams," said Chris Kissel, Vice
President, Security and Trust Products at IDC Research. "Curated
threat intelligence from credible experts in the space provides
businesses and their front line security personnel with timely
insights, enabling them to better detect, triage, and investigate
threats. Integrating this service with existing security ecosystems
helps businesses stay one step ahead of cyber threats as digital
attack surfaces evolve and expand."
The Threat Research and Intelligence Team has released numerous
first-to-market research reports over the past year leveraging
BlackBerry's data-driven digital ecosystem and analytical
capabilities. These research reports have revealed new developments
in the ransomware and malware space, and targeted, state-sponsored
APT activity, including Symbiote, DCRat, Chaos Yashma ransomware
and LokiLocker, all of which have been well-received by
BlackBerry's customer base and the broader security community.
The service will launch in December.
