Updated statement regarding LockBit claims
We have completed a thorough security investigation following yesterday’s tweets by LockBit claiming they had compromised Darktrace’s internal systems. We can confirm that there has been no compromise of our systems or any of our affiliate systems. Our service to our customers remains uninterrupted and is operating as normal and no further action is required.
Press Release
Statement regarding LockBit claims
Earlier this morning we became aware of tweets from LockBit, the cyber-criminal gang, claiming that they had compromised Darktrace’s internal security systems and had accessed our data. Our security teams have run a full review of our internal systems and can see no evidence of compromise. None of the LockBit social media posts link to any compromised Darktrace data. We will continue to monitor the situation extremely closely, but based on our current investigations we are confident that our systems remain secure and all customer data is fully protected.

Darktrace Announces New, Self-Learning Cyber Intelligence Platform
Darktrace Announces New, Self-Learning Cyber Intelligence Platform
Darktrace, founded by world-class machine learning specialists and operational government intelligence experts, today announced the launch of its self-learning Darktrace Cyber Intelligence Platform version 2. Darktrace gives customers the ability to detect anomalies in real time that go undetected by existing security tools, thanks to its ground-breaking Enterprise Immune System technology that learns 'self' and what is normal and abnormal activity within an organization.
Fifty of the world's largest companies use Darktrace's cutting-edge technology to protect against advanced external and insider cyber threats by detecting emerging anomalies in real time. This allows cyber analysts to investigate and mitigate in-progress incidents.
Powered by advanced Bayesian mathematics and machine learning developed at the University of Cambridge, Darktrace is at the forefront of a step-change in the way organizations approach this new era of cyber-attacks. Its adaptive cyber intelligence platform is used to protect major critical national infrastructure providers from constantly-evolving attack methods.
Rather than producing a flood of false positive alerts, Darktrace analyzes raw data over time using probabilistic math, and anomalies are clustered, prioritized and visualized. With this unique intelligence, Darktrace's world-leading cyber specialists work closely with Security Operation Centers (SOCs) and threat analysts to quickly mitigate potential threats.
The new version of Darktrace implements a number of new, unique features including:
- Real-Time Total Network Immersion: the most complete visibility into all network interactions, including internal, device-to-device communications, border information, internet channels, log files, historical data etc., delivered by Darkflow, Darktrace's proprietary network data capture tool.
- User, Device and Network Correlation: Darktrace creates real-time mathematical models for every device and user within the organization and for the network as a whole, and correlates the findings to work out the probability of a threat scenario.
- 3D Threat Visualization: Darktrace's industry-leading Threat Visualizer is powered by proprietary 3D topological network projection technology (TNPT), which uniquely allows customers to analyze and traverse vast internal networks in real time.
As we continue to move away from the old model of building walls around an organization, including tools such as intrusion prevention systems, it is clear that the next generation of cyber defense solutions must assume that infiltration may already have happened," said Andrew France, CEO of Darktrace. "Darktrace is a great example of this new generation of self-learning systems, which constantly adapt to evolving information environments.
Darktrace's Enterprise Immune System approach delivers real-time insights into potentially interesting or worrying data events, giving our customers an advantage over the attackers in highly dynamic and fast-moving threat scenarios."
Darktrace Cyber Intelligence Platform version 2 has been made available immediately.
