Global manufacturing giant signs multi-million-dollar deal with Darktrace

arktrace , a global leader in cybersecurity AI , has announced that a global manufacturer has signed a

D multi-million-dollar contract with Darktrace to ensure its email environment is protected by autonomous AI .

The company , which employs over 30,000 people and produces tyres and other industrial products , with sites across multiple jurisdictions worldwide , has selected Antigena Email to defend against a consistently high volume of email threats targeting employees at every level of the business .
Email remains the most common entry point for cyberattackers as adversaries use methods such as advanced phishing attempts , account takeovers and domain spoofing . Phishing often leads to mass compromise and traditional email gateways are no longer equipped to deal with the sophisticated attacks aimed at modern organisations every day .
Darktrace ’ s Antigena Email is a self-learning technology , which stops targeted email campaigns and impersonation attacks that evade traditional email gateways . The technology works by learning the ‘ pattern of life ’ for every user in an organisation . By understanding the human behind the email , rather than relying on historic data from known threats , Antigena Email can precisely identify and stop malicious email activity , before it ever reaches the user .

Palo Alto Networks launches a managed next-generation firewall service for AWS

alo Alto Networks has teamed up with AWS to unveil

P the new Palo Alto Networks Cloud NGFW for AWS

– a managed Next-Generation Firewall ( NGFW ) service designed to simplify securing AWS deployments – enabling organisations to speed their pace of innovation while remaining secure .
Cloud NGFW for AWS , exclusively available on AWS , brings Palo Alto Networks acclaimed security to organisations ’ cloud deployments in a few clicks . Recognising that customers want to dedicate their time and resources to building applications and running their business instead of managing cloud network security infrastructure , Cloud NGFW for AWS shifts the operational responsibility , including deployment , maintenance , availability and scale , to Palo Alto Networks .
“ A key reason that companies have embraced the cloud is that they want to concentrate on their core competencies and leave other tasks like infrastructure and underlying services to experts like AWS . The native AWS experience and the proliferation of AWS native services have given these organisations the tools they needed to embrace the cloud ,” said Anand Oswal , Senior Vice President , Network Security at Palo Alto Networks .
“ Now , as cyberattacks continue to grow in frequency and sophistication , organisations are looking for network security that is as easy to deploy as other native AWS services . We are thrilled to team with AWS to combine the top-notch security we are known for with the world-class experience people have come to expect from AWS .”
