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.

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.

Over One Million Patient Records Defended with Darktrace AI
Darktrace, the world leader in machine learning technology for cyber defense, has today announced that DynaLIFE Medical Labs has deployed the Enterprise Immune System to defend medical information from 1.84 million patient visits per year against sophisticated cyber-threats.
Before deploying Darktrace, our lean security team devoted considerable staff time in identifying genuine threats from the large number of alerts generated using our current systems,” commented Blair Panasiuk, Manager of IT Operations and Infrastructure, DynaLIFE. “The Enterprise Immune System has significantly improved our defenses and transformed our approach to cyber security, including greatly increasing our team’s effectiveness. It alerts us to the most threatening anomalies, allowing us to tackle risk more strategically and efficiently than ever before.”
Powered by machine learning and AI algorithms, the Enterprise Immune System autonomously learns a sense of ‘self’ for DynaLIFE’s network and uses that intelligence to detect anomalous behavior as it emerges. Traditional approaches to cyber defense are inherently retrospective, cataloging old threats in an attempt to predict and stop future breaches. In contrast, Darktrace’s ability to learn on the job, analyzing data in live, complex networks, enables it to catch the threats legacy technologies consistently miss, including stealthy and sophisticated attacks, ‘unknown unknowns’, and insider threat. The Enterprise Immune System also goes a step further to fight back against threats, taking autonomous action to stop or slow down in-progress attacks.
Organizations within the healthcare sector face an almost insurmountable challenge: how to defend highly sensitive patient data against increasingly targeted attacks and with limited resources,” commented David Masson, Country Manager, Canada, Darktrace. “Darktrace arms up healthcare providers with proven AI technology, which autonomously detects and responds to the cyber-threats that bypass traditional security tools. DynaLIFE joins a growing number of organizations who are at the fore-front of this fundamental shift in approach to tackling the cyber security challenge.”
