WATERLOO, Ont., Oct. 16, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BlackBerry
Limited (NYSE: BB; TSX: BB) today announced integration of
CylancePROTECT ® and
CylanceOPTICS® with Chronicle's Backstory
security analytics platform, starting this quarter. BlackBerry
Cylance predictive endpoint protection will contribute valuable
threat intelligence used in Backstory's enterprise security
telemetry.
BlackBerry Cylance's AI-powered security solutions protect the
complete enterprise attack surface with automated threat
prevention, detection, and response capabilities. Backstory
provides a global security telemetry platform for investigating
incidents and hunting for threats in enterprise networks. Together,
this integration will help security administrators quickly identify
and respond to threats detected in their organization's environment
by recognizing patterns in threat data and user activity over time.
Backstory is designed to manage large volumes of historical data,
while CylancePROTECT and CylanceOPTICS allow users to pinpoint
specific behavior or reference larger trends from an easily
retrievable body of data.
"Endpoint data is invaluable for any organization's security
operation, but it can be noisy and maintaining historical data is
costly," said Eric Cornelius, chief
technology officer at BlackBerry Cylance. "We believe integrating
BlackBerry Cylance threat protection and detection capabilities
with Chronicle's Backstory will give organizations the scale and
speed needed to protect their data and employees from always
evolving cyber threats."
BlackBerry security solutions protect over 500 million endpoints
worldwide. Chronicle users can leverage the pre-execution
Predictive Advantage (PA) of CylancePROTECT to prevent advanced
threats, including fileless and zero-day attacks, on average 25
months before they are first detected in the wild. The power of
prevention is coupled with the highly scalable endpoint detection
and response (EDR) capabilities of CylanceOPTICS for threat hunting
and root cause analysis, making BlackBerry Cylance the most
comprehensive solution available.
Triggers and indicators identified by BlackBerry Cylance can be
correlated with Backstory's context panel, which summarizes,
categorizes, and packages threat intelligence for the customer, all
for a predictable fixed cost. This allows security professionals to
spend more time focusing on strategic goals rather than chasing
alerts and managing the scaling, backup, and performance of their
analytics system.
