Global cyber AI company Darktrace has recently announced that there has been increased demand for its latest product release, Version 5 of its self-learning Darktrace Immune System, as customers look to tackle security challenges related to home working and new waves of sophisticated cyber-attacks.
Requests to trial the company’s Cyber AI technology in December 2020 – when the security industry was on high alert following the attack on SolarWinds which made thousands of organisations vulnerable to infiltration – were up 40% compared to December 2019.
Poppy Gustafsson, CEO of Darktrace. remarked: “Recent attacks, including the malicious campaign related to SolarWinds, have laid bare the inadequacy of signature-based tools in protecting against stealthy intruders that lie low inside digital systems.
“Darktrace’s AI is designed to detect these types of novel threats, and intervene immediately to stop their spread. The demand for our latest release is testimony to Darktrace’s unique position in helping CISOs upgrade their security, as they seek to protect their entire digital infrastructure in the cloud, email, home office or network environments.”
“At Darktrace, we have a track record of innovation and providing our customers with the technology they need to keep up with the most complex attacks,” added Nicole Eagan, Chief Strategy Officer.
“We have seen an increased need for autonomous cyber defense as companies have transitioned to work from home and adopted more cloud-based tools.”
