AUSTIN, Texas, April 24, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
Cyberbit, the wholly owned subsidiary
of Elbit Systems (NASDAQ and TASE: ESLT) whose cybersecurity
solutions protect the world's most sensitive systems, today
announced a new version of its adaptive Endpoint Detection and
Response (EDR) platform, which now provides advanced and
semi-automated threat hunting, centralized response capabilities,
and an improved Software Developer Kit (SDK) for detection
customization. Originally developed to meet requirements of
high-risk organizations, Cyberbit's new EDR enhancements help
customers decrease threat detection and response times while
minimizing false positives, drastically improving cyberattack
countermeasures and cutting distractions for security teams.
Cyberattacks continue to shift tactics, with hackers launching
fileless malware that is undetectable by ransomware safeguards,
antivirus and other traditional endpoint protection platforms.
Cyberbit EDR's approach detects a broad range of attacks without
relying on indicators of compromise (IOCs), including
signature-less, fileless and targeted attacks as well as
ransomware. The adaptive approach automatically tailors a
behavioral detection policy to the customer's organization, which
ensures the highest levels of accuracy based on each
environment.
"Cyberbit provides one of the most effective solutions for
detecting unknown, signature-less and targeted threats, including
fileless attacks and ransomware, by using machine learning and
behavioral analytics, enabling quick identification of root cause
and response," said Danielle
VanZandt, research analyst at Frost & Sullivan.
"Cyberbit's approach proved to provide its customers with
substantially higher detection and response capabilities, while
keeping low false positive ratios. As a result, security teams can
focus on high priority alerts and are not distracted and overloaded
with false alarms."
The new release includes the following key features:
Analyst in a Box: Analysts often work with fragments of
the attack story; using their knowledge and experience, they seek
traces of attacks buried in data. Cyberbit's EDR platform assists
analysts by automating much of the hunting process, leveraging
behavioral analytics and machine learning, which serves as an
"analyst in a box," speeding up threat identification and often
saving weeks of investigative effort.
SDK and customization: Advanced customers can add
proprietary detection algorithms to address their unique security
requirements. They can also access the EDR's big-data repository
using Application Programming Interfaces (APIs), and use their own
functions and tools to proactively investigate and hunt
threats.
Centralized response capabilities: well suited for large,
dispersed organizations, security managers can access any endpoint
in the organization from a central location and rapidly investigate
and respond to an incident, which eliminates the need to be
physically present at the compromised endpoint.
Adi Dar, CEO of Cyberbit, said,
"It takes only one fileless or signature-less attack to bring down
an organization; however, these attacks are invisible to endpoint
security systems. Customers now understand that this is where they
need to focus. Our EDR is gaining traction as one of the most
reliable means to protect against advanced attacks, and this new
release helps customers stay ahead of new threats and save time
with next-generation SOC technology."
Cyberbit was recently named by CRN magazine one of 20 coolest
endpoint security vendors for 2017. Cyberbit EDR is the winner of
the Frost and Sullivan Technology Leadership Award for
Cybersecurity Detection and Response, and the winner of the Network
World Asia Reader's Choice Rising Star award for endpoint security.
Cyberbit recently announced a contract with Infor to provide its
EDR platform.
The new Cyberbit EDR is available to all customers immediately.
