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 Named Finalist of Computing Security Awards

September 4, 2014

Darktrace today announces that it has been shortlisted as a Finalist of the Computing Security Awards 2014, in the Security Product of the Year category.

The Computing Security Awards were set up to recognize particularly impressive enterprise solutions that address advanced security threats.    Darktrace has been shortlisted for the Security Project of the Year, for its innovative work deploying an Enterprise Immune System into one of the most forward-thinking European critical national infrastructure companies.

The company selected Darktrace's unique Enterprise Immune System technology to enhance its ability to defend against dynamic insider and external threats.    Within weeks of deployment, Darktrace detected a number of cyber threats that had bypassed the company's traditional security controls,    and continues to monitor threat levels in real time, based on ground-breaking mathematics and machine learning.

Darktrace is delighted to be announced as a finalist in these awards, which further validates the innovation of its approach to cyber defense,    and the transition that the information security industry is successfully making to a new era of probability-based threat detection and risk management.
