Attivo Networks provides real-time visibility and detection of inside-the-network threats that have bypassed security prevention systems. The company's dynamic deception platform has been deployed in numerous Fortune 500 companies and is recognized as the most comprehensive solution on the market. Attivo has the ability to create a deception matrix and traps across all segments of an organization's network, data center, cloud, and Industrial Control System (SCADA) environments. The company's patented threat detection technology is based on high-interaction engagement servers, server and endpoint decoys, and an extensive suite of deception lures. It uses real operating systems, applications, and other advanced deception techniques to create an environment that is indistinguishable from an organization's real assets. The BOTsink® analysis engine plays a critical role in the solution and takes the detected attack, analyzes the attack, and automatically or on demand produces detailed alerts and reports that enable the prompt blocking and quarantining of infected systems.
"First, we are extremely pleased that the deception based security category is receiving national attention through award categories like this," comments Tushar Kothari, CEO of Attivo Networks. "And, of course, we are very excited that we are the winner in this prestigious competition. We have led the innovation in deception detection by expanding our capabilities and features based on the increasing complex requirements of our global customers. Breaches are growing rapidly and, with ever evolving types of threats, we realize that continuing to provide next generation solutions that efficiently reduce the time to detection and speed up the time to remediation are critical to our customers success and to the defense of their most valued assets."
