Darktrace sees growth over the past quarter

Darktrace, the enterprise immune system technology provider, now has over 375 partners, and 400 employees across 24 global locations. As of its most recent quarter, Darktrace now boasts 2,400 deployments worldwide compared to 2,000 deployments in December 2016.

To date, the company's Enterprise Immune System has detected over 30,000 serious in-progress threats compared to 27,000 in December 2016. Unknown threats detected by the Enterprise Immune System include the compromise of a videoconferencing device, the vulnerability of backup servers containing senior executive communications, and an emerging attack against a connected refrigeration system.

The Enterprise Immune System is machine learning technology to detect and fight against in-progress threats in real time. Created by mathematicians from the University of Cambridge, Darktrace’s artificial intelligence (AI) algorithms learn the normal behaviour of every device and user on the network to defend organisations against emerging threats.

“The Enterprise Immune System has revolutionised our security,” commented Terrell Johnson, Systems and Networks Manager, Sunsweet, a global agricultural producer with offices in Japan and China. “The amount of visibility we achieve from its machine learning approach is unmatched. We are now finding anomalies, in real time, that would have taken us weeks, or even months, to find on our own.”

Said Nicole Eagan, CEO, Darktrace, “The Enterprise Immune System is unique in its ability to not only detect but also remediate in-progress threats, including subtle, stealthy attacks, and ‘unknown unknowns’. Proven across thousands of deployments, it is a true manifestation of AI in action making Darktrace’s technology virtually impossible to replicate.”
