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 Unveils Cloud Visibility for Immune System
Darktrace, the leader in Enterprise Immune System technology, has announced that it has extended its self-learning threat detection to third-party cloud environments.
Powered by machine learning and mathematics developed at the University of Cambridge, the Enterprise Immune System is unique in detecting emerging cyber-threats within networks, without using rules or signatures.
Delivered within an appliance that is installed at the heart of the network, Darktrace’s self-learning software is now complemented by total visibility of virtualized environments, including third-party cloud environments.
Darktrace OS-Sensors are lightweight, host-based server agents that complement Darktrace’s virtual appliance, vSensors. OS-Sensors work by intelligently extracting copies of network traffic for analysis by the master Darktrace appliance, giving the Enterprise Immune System complete visibility of lateral information flow within the cloud, as well as within the physical network activity.
Benefits of Darktrace’s OS-Sensors for the cloud include:
- Complete visibility — cloud and on-premise network data
- Fully configurable — see all or selected cloud traffic
- Lightweight and non-intrusive — easily installed onto virtual machines, without requiring access to the physical server
- Dynamic configuration — creates only single copies of network traffic, avoiding data duplication
OS-Sensors are compatible with all major hosting services including Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, Rackspace and Microsoft Azure. For more information, click here to request the Darktrace Virtualized Environments data sheet.
