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.

Top New York Investment Firm Signs Million Dollar Contract with Darktrace

December 7, 2017

Darktrace, the world leader in machine learning technology for cyber defense, has today announced that a leading global investment management firm has deployed Darktrace’s Enterprise Immune System. The firm has signed a $1m contract for Darktrace’s AI technology to catch the known and unknown cyber-threats that other tools miss, including subtle and sophisticated campaigns, third-party vulnerabilities, and malicious and accidental insider threat.

Powered by machine learning and AI algorithms, the Enterprise Immune System works by learning the ‘pattern of life’ of each user and device on a network. Using this evolving understanding of ‘normal’, it spots emerging threats and autonomously responds to slow down, or stop in-progress attacks before they have inflicted harm. The technology has detected over 53,000 serious, in-progress cyber-threats to date, across over 3,750 networks worldwide. Customers span every industry and include some of the largest global banks, FMCGs companies, and retailers with millions of devices, as well as small and medium-sized enterprises.
