Preventing data theft with ADX technology. Ensuring data stays secure even after cyberattack infiltration. Webinar Daily incursions are underway with the aim of removing every bit of data that you've got - the cyber criminals' aim is to break in and get out again laden with digital booty. But without that data exfiltration there's no ransom to pay. And if cybercriminals can't steal your data, they move on. Many organisations spend most of their time fortifying and securing themselves from external attack. And security solutions tend to target incoming traffic and focus on perimeter defence by utilising dictionaries of attack signatories. Blackfog is taking a different approach though, with on-device anti data exfiltration (ADX) technology leveraging AI based behavioural analytics to limit the ability for any users, even administrators, to send unauthorized data outside the network. You can learn more about Blackfog and its solutions by joining the Register's Tim Phillips on November 15 at 5pm GMT/12pm EST/9am PST in conversation with the company's CEO and Founder, Dr Darren Williams. Tim and Darren will explore the most efficient and successful way to secure all your devices and data and explain why traditional AV solutions cannot stop AI-enhanced intruders. Together, they'll outline why ADX technology can provide the best defence against ransomware and extortion, and discuss how you can most effectively secure your data. Sign up to access our 'Prevent data exfiltration' webinar here and we'll send you a reminder when it's time to watch. Sponsored by Blackfog.
Daily Brief Summary
Cyberattacks consistently target businesses for data theft; the stolen data being critical for the enforcement of ransom demands.
Many organizations are investing heavily in improving their security from external attacks, focusing mostly on the perimeter defense and incoming traffic.
Cybersecurity firm Blackfog is taking a different approach by implementing on-device anti data exfiltration (ADX) technology that uses AI-based behavioural analytics.
The ADX technology restricts even the administrators from sending unauthorized data outside the network.
Blackfog believes that this approach provides the optimum defense against ransomware and extortion by blocking the unauthorized outflow of data.
The Register's Tim Phillips will host a webinar in conversation with Dr Darren Williams, CEO and Founder of Blackfog, on November 15 to discuss the role and efficiency of ADX technology in securing devices and data.
The seminar aims to explain why traditional antivirus solutions are inadequate in stopping AI-enhanced intruders, making a case for innovative solutions like ADX technology.
