Darktrace, líder en tecnología Enterprise Immune System , anuncia que una de las principales empresas de juegos y entretenimiento interactivo del mundo ha seleccionado la tecnología de Darktrace como parte de una estrategia de ciberseguridad proactiva y adaptable.

The company, headquarted in Asia, has developed many well-known video games and attaches great value to the integrity of its data assets. In recognition of the importance of protecting this intellectual property, as well as other critical information, such as customer details and corporate data, the gaming house prioritized cyber security as a key focus area.

The challenge for the company was to protect against both existing Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs) that are circulating the industry, as well as existing vulnerabilities that potentially exist within its network, including insider threat. Furthermore, it wanted a solution that would take into account the dynamic behaviors of its staff, who use social media and other third-party, data-sharing sites on a regular basis, without having to restrain their access and inhibit their capacity to work efficiently.

After a consultative review, the company decided to deploy Darktrace’s Enterprise Immune System, based on fundamental new mathematics and machine learning developed at the University of Cambridge, to help it understand its digital environment and detect emerging threat behaviors early.

Enterprise Immune System technology allows it to establish an adaptive understanding of what is normal for every user, device and the network as a whole, without any a priori knowledge. From day one, the machine learning and mathematics started building a ‘pattern of life’ for the corporate network, enabling the company to react to emerging issues and take proactive measures against potential problems, before they cause damage.

“Intellectual property is critical to the gaming industry, and yet security must constantly be balanced with flexible working habits and collaborative networks,” said Nicole Eagan, CEO, Darktrace. “We are delighted to help games companies protect not just their code but the totality of their data as well as their corporate reputation, by proactively spotting early indicators of compromise”.
