Cyemptive Technologies, which was Recognized with Double 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Awards in the 2021 Homeland Security Awards Program, has been Nominated to compete for a record Ten ‘ASTORS’ Awards in the 2022 Program, one of which is for the Cyemptive Enterprise Scanner.

The technology industry is evolving very rapidly and new vulnerabilities are continually created as part of constant change.

While companies are identifying and protecting against these vulnerabilities as fast as they can, there is always some level of “found but not yet solved” vulnerabilities.

Also, as the industry has evolved to higher and higher levels of operational automation, hardware, operating systems, and all processes running on them have needed hooks to enable automation. These have also created new attack vectors at all levels in the stack.

Cyemptive’s Innovative Approach

Cyemptive has patented an innovative approach, but it starts with a completely new mindset.

The cyber industry historically has relied on preventing known attacks, scanning infrastructure and applications for signatures of these exploits, and knowing how to stop them.

There has been a huge investment in threat intelligence to understand these known exploits and to close the gap in the time it takes between when they are first found, the time when there is a solution developed to block the new exploit, and the time that it takes to deploy this new solution so the new exploit can be stopped.

More recently, companies have leveraged the branch of Artificial Intelligence (AI) called Machine Learning (ML) to close these gaps faster and with more efficiency than having humans close the gaps.

Significant progress has been made, but the mindset hasn’t materially changed from one where we need to protect against known exploits.

“With the proliferation of zero-day attacks, ransomware, and other malware, cybersecurity is one of the top challenges facing enterprises today,” explains Cyemptive Founder and CEO Rob Pike.

“Our unique approach to combating ransomware and other malware is helping businesses across the world stay safe against the ever-increasing onslaught of attacks.”

Cyemptive’s approach utilizes a unique combination of technologies that do not seek to identify and stay ahead of known threats but rather utilizes their patented technology to “Preemptively” stop all attacks regardless of being known or unknown.

Cyemptive has built protections leveraging multiple automated defensive technologies that work together, and the combination of Cyemptive solutions; CyberSlice, CyberScan, and CyberSensor, make environments nearly impenetrable.

The Cyemptive Enterprise Scanner (CES) uses Cyemptive’s CyberScan© technology to examine and fingerprint the data in files, identifying and eliminating both known and unknown threats at the file content level before they become a problem.  

CES’s unique ability to correlate files containing malicious code with other “trigger” files, at a massive scale, to prevent sophisticated malware activation that others do not detect.  

Traditional solutions fall short in effectiveness because they rely on static signatures, API monitoring, checksums, and white lists based on industry-reported known attacks only.

CES also incorporates highly efficient cluster scalability for efficiently scanning massive datasets, including any level of backup file systems.

CES addresses emerging threats such as Sleeper Ransomware, packets & hidden executables, and identifies Steganography hacks and other forms of Malware without execution.

CES consistently outperforms competitors’ detection results by detecting, isolating, and reporting on both industry-reported known threats, in addition to Zero-Day malware variants of all types, without generating false positives reported by other cybersecurity solutions.  

Exabyte scaling ensures the enterprise scanner for any size dataset, and includes built-in self-healing which enables maximum protection against malware at all layers of the attack surface.

In production, the company’s CyberScan technology has delivered detection results more than 1000x compared to all the other existing technologies combined.

Also Nominated in the 2022 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Program from Cyemptive Technologies, is the Cyemptive Perimeter Fortress (CPF) for Cyber Network and Perimeter Protection, Cyemptive Security Information and Event Manager (CSM), their Cyemptive Zero Trust Access (CZTA) which is an add-on feature to the Cyemptive Perimeter Fortress (CPF) solution, and their complete Cyemptive Suite of Solutions.

Cyemptive’s cybersecurity solutions are the only ones on the market today guaranteed to protect computing environments before or immediately following a compromise.

Cyemptive handles threat elimination by keeping systems in known and predictable states while constantly and automatically removing threats.

Unlike the competition, Cyemptive’s patented technologies protect against both known and unknown “Zero-Day” attacks, including hardware-based compromises.

Cyemptive has been on a mission to make large organizations cyber safe since 2014. Today, more than 130 customers worldwide utilize Cyemptive’s award-winning software, services, and support to remove all cyber threats before or immediately after they are compromised.

The company’s leadership team is comprised of executives from several of the world’s most powerful technology and security organizations, including the former CIO of Microsoft and the former Chief Computer Architect for the National Security Agency.

The United States was forever changed 20 years ago on September 11th, and we were fortunate to have many of those who responded to those horrific tragedies join us at the 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Luncheon.

In the days that followed 9/11, the critical needs of protecting our country catapulted us into new and innovative ways to secure our homeland – which is how many of the agencies and enterprise organizations that are today ‘ASTORS’ Awards Champions, came into being.

Our 2021 keynote speaker featured a moving and informative address from TSA Administrator and Vice-Admiral of the United States Coast Guard (Ret), David Pekoske; to our attendees who traveled from across the United States and abroad, on the strategic priorities of the 64,000 member TSA workforce in securing the transportation system, enabling safe, and in many cases, contactless travel.

Legendary Police Commissioner William Bratton of the New York Police Department, the Boston Police Department, and former Chief of the Los Angeles Police Department was also live at the event, meeting with attendees and signing copies of his latest work ‘The Profession: A Memoir of Community, Race, and the Arc of Policing in America,’ courtesy of the generosity of our 2021 ‘ASTORS’ Awards Premier Sponsors.
