Darktrace, líder en tecnología Enterprise Immune System , ha anunciado hoy que ha sido nombrada en la lista inaugural de The Wall Street Journal "Top 25 Companies to Watch", que identifica a los líderes emergentes en los rincones calientes de la industria tecnológica. Darktrace es la única empresa de ciberseguridad en el top 10 de la prestigiosa clasificación y fue seleccionada gracias a su innovación, crecimiento estelar, respaldo de los inversores y éxito de los fundadores.

Darktrace has experienced rapid growth with revenues increasing by over 600% year-over-year. The company employs 500 staff working across 24 global offices. It has raised over $100 million in funding from investors including Invoke Capital, Talis Capital, Hoxton Ventures, Summit Partners, KKR, TenEleven Ventures, Softbank and Samsung.

In under four years since its inception, Darktrace has established itself as the de facto leader in disruptive AI technology for cyber defense. As stealthy, sophisticated threats become the norm and human security teams are increasingly outstripped in their capacity to contain fast-spreading attacks, Darktrace has seen massive demand for its pioneering technology. Leveraging advances in unsupervised machine learning and probabilistic mathematics, Darktrace’s flagship product, the Enterprise Immune System is the world’s first and only proven AI technology to detect and automatically fight back against cyber-threats in real time.

A diferencia de las defensas tradicionales, que se fijan en los ataques pasados en un intento de definir y anticiparse a las amenazas futuras, Darktrace protege las redes desde dentro hacia fuera. Siguiendo el modelo del sistema inmunitario humano, Enterprise Immune System aprende por sí mismo lo que es "normal" para una red y utiliza ese conocimiento para detectar y responder automáticamente a los ataques emergentes en tiempo real, antes de que hayan causado daños. La tecnología de inteligencia artificial para la ciberdefensa de Darktrace permite la aparición de las primeras redes autodefensivas que pueden inocularse a sí mismas contra las amenazas desde dentro.

To be named as the only cyber security company in the top 10 of the Wall Street Journal’s ‘Top 25 Companies to Watch’ list is a testament to the rippling effect our AI technology has had across the industry,” commented Nicole Eagan, CEO, Darktrace. “Our vision for security represents a fundamental step-change from the approaches of the past and has heralded in a new era for cyber defense. As pernicious attacks threaten to erode our trust in both our public and private institutions, Darktrace’s AI technology equips defenders with the tools they need to stay ahead in today’s cyber arms race.”
