WILMINGTON, DE — Intel 471 is celebrating the first anniversary of its acquisition of Cyborg Security, a move that has propelled significant innovation and growth in its threat hunting capabilities. Over the past year, the company has increased its threat hunting customer base by 65% and made substantial enhancements to its product portfolio, underscoring its leadership in the cybersecurity industry.
The integration of Cyborg Security’s expertise has driven the development of two new capabilities within Intel 471’s HUNTER platform: “Bring Your Own Hunts” and “Guided Threat Hunts.” These tools empower security teams of varying sizes and maturity levels to bolster their threat detection and response. The “Bring Your Own Hunts” feature allows teams to customize hunt strategies while integrating methodologies for tracking performance, and the “Guided Threat Hunts” tool streamlines the process for identifying and responding to sophisticated adversary behaviors.
“One year later, we are furthering threat hunting team maturity and skills by putting all hunting capabilities into their hands,” said Jason Passwaters, CEO of Intel 471. “Our platform gives organizations the ability to fully leverage their hunt content strategy, resulting in record growth and continuous momentum.”
These advancements come as organizations increasingly prioritize in-house threat hunting capabilities. A recent SANS survey reveals that 58% of organizations now manage threat hunting internally, reflecting a growing need for tailored visibility and control in the face of advanced cyber threats.
Mike Mitchell, vice president of threat hunt intelligence at Intel 471, highlighted the importance of staying ahead of evolving tactics by leveraging behavioral intelligence. “Being able to hunt with the context of adversary behaviors gives threat hunters the advantage they need to accurately protect their networks,” Mitchell stated.
Intel 471 is showcasing its latest innovations at the RSA Conference this week, reinforcing its commitment to equipping security teams with the tools and intelligence necessary to address emerging threats effectively.
