Cyber company BlackBerry has launched a managed detection and response service called CylanceMDR Pro. The company says the service 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 built on an AI-powered Open XDR platform. Its XDR architecture integrates 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.
BlackBerry says 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.
“Despite organisations making significant investments in personnel and technology, many haven’t seen a commensurate improvement in their risk envelope,” said BlackBerry Senior Vice President and General Manager Nathan Jenniges. “CylanceMDR Pro is a game-changer for organisations seeking confidence in their cybersecurity posture. 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. 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.”
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 maximising 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 analyse telemetry for attack signals, prioritise and present structured cases for faster human-led investigation and response, and proactively stop attacks before damage can occur.
