SecureData, the provider of managed cybersecurity 0services today announced that it has partnered with Cylance® to offer its next-generation endpoint threat prevention product, CylancePROTECT®.

With the addition of CylancePROTECT® to SecureData’s already rich portfolio of products and services, the company is responding strongly to the evolving threat landscape. Cyber attacks are continuing to increase in frequency and severity, with web-borne attacks the most frequent, whilst the number of zero-day, APT and spear phishing attacks are also on the rise. With attacks becoming ever more complex, multifaceted and pre-tested against anti-virus (AV), legacy endpoint solutions can no longer be trusted to provide adequate levels of protection.

CylancePROTECT® completely eliminates the need for traditional AV software, anti-exploit products, whitelisting solutions and host-based intrusion detection and prevention systems. Its transformational detection and blocking is based on a radically different technological approach to cybersecurity. Unlike reactionary signature, heuristics and behaviour monitoring, which require an Internet connection, Cylance applies artificial intelligence to analyse a file’s characteristics and predict whether it is safe or a threat, preventing malicious files from ever executing on the local host.

CylancePROTECT is a simple, lightweight agent that offers complete protection from system- and memory-based attacks, spear phishing, zero-day malware, privilege escalations, scripts and malicious and potentially unwanted programs, all without the high false positive rates, operational overhead and management complexity of other solutions.
