"We are at a critical inflection point in enterprise security," said Faizel Lakhani. "Despite the best efforts of a barrage of perimeter, network and endpoint security defenses, breaches have continued -- and will continue -- to occur. Today's enterprises have no way to quickly and efficiently determine if they have been breached or if a breach is imminent. SS8 solves this problem with a "Time Machine for Breaches" that allows organizations to go back to when the activity started and quickly remediate."
Faizel adds, "Cyber attacks are growing increasingly sophisticated. The attackers are slowing down their activities to hide in the noise of normal traffic. This is where SS8 shines. Our deep application knowledge and extensive retrospective analysis of enriched communication metadata summaries enables us to uncover otherwise concealed anomalies and threats."
SS8 will be exhibiting its ground-breaking breach detection solution in booth #4805 at the , being held at the Moscone Center in San Francisco from February 29 to March 3.
