Unified approach to predictive cyber-defense
with simple pricing, increases visibility and boosts security
posture, without changing existing software stack
WATERLOO, ON, July 17,
2024 /CNW/ -- BlackBerry Limited (NYSE: BB;
TSX: BB) today announced the launch of CylanceMDR™ Pro, a
cutting-edge managed detection and response (MDR) service built on
an Open XDR platform powered by AI. Designed to tackle the growing
challenges of modern cybersecurity, CylanceMDR Pro overcomes the
operational burden facing security teams that must defend against
increasingly sophisticated adversaries across expanding attack
surfaces with limited resources and talent shortage
constraints.
CylanceMDR Pro is the ideal solution for growing businesses
looking to quickly advance their cybersecurity capabilities without
overhauling their existing security infrastructure or hiring teams
of analysts and threat hunters. CylanceMDR Pro's comprehensive XDR
architecture integrates seamlessly with existing security tools,
providing deep visibility across the entire IT infrastructure
without the need to rip and replace any existing tooling. With over
300 platform integrations, the solution transforms business data
and applications into powerful security sensors, enabling the
detection and prevention of threats that other solutions might
miss.
"Despite organizations making significant investments in
personnel and technology, many haven't seen a commensurate
improvement in their risk envelope. CylanceMDR Pro is a
game-changer for organizations seeking confidence in their
cybersecurity posture," said Nathan
Jenniges, Senior Vice President and General Manager,
BlackBerry Cybersecurity. "It is a single platform solution, that
is easy to deploy, ensuring that threat detection data is unified
across endpoints, networks, cloud environments and beyond."
"Across the industry, BlackBerry has observed close to a 250%
increase in unique attacks per minute in the last year alone, with
a continued trend in our latest Global Threat Intelligence Report,"
said Jenniges. "The effectiveness of any MDR depends heavily on its
underlying platform, its experts, and the full breadth of services
delivered. "Our AI-driven approach, combined with our expert
security team, delivers unmatched protection and peace of mind,
allowing businesses to focus on what they do best."
Expansive ecosystem with AI at its core
CylanceMDR Pro is compatible with all the security tooling a
company already has, so they can easily use existing investments.
This reduces the total cost of ownership by maximizing their
current investments and budget. CylanceMDR Pro pulls telemetry
across all attack surfaces, including endpoint, network, cloud,
SaaS, identity, and email, to more accurately discern attack
signals from noise with higher fidelity detections and rapid
response to threats. CylanceMDR Pro is powered by Cylance® AI, the
longest-running and continuously improving predictive AI in the
market. It has consistently outperformed other leading AIs in 3rd
party testing. Cylance AI is informed with proprietary intelligence
and used pervasively to analyze telemetry for attack signals,
prioritize and present structured cases for faster human-led
investigation and response, and proactively stop attacks before
damage can occur.
"The cybersecurity landscape is complicated. Being able to
quickly onboard and use what is already in place is a huge boon for
any organization – SMB to Enterprise -- that needs to solve Its
security problems fast. It's hard to incorporate multiple
offerings, but BlackBerry can make it simple with CylanceMDR Pro,"
said Craig Robinson, Research Vice
President of Security Services, IDC.
CylanceMDR Pro will be available July 31,
2024. To learn more please go to
