AUSTIN, Texas, Jan. 26, 2021 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Spyderbat, Inc., a trailblazer in Attack Tracing and Intercept (ATI) tools, has appointed cybersecurity veteran Richard Stiennon to its Advisory Board. Stiennon joins based on his assessment that Spyderbat arms security analysts with the most unique and effective innovation in the industry for radically compressing their investigation time.
"In my opinion, Spyderbat's ATI tool is the first real cybersecurity breakthrough in over a decade," states Stiennon. "ATI is a true game changer that equips analysts with a stunningly fast and remarkably powerful investigation capability. In my line of work I see hundreds of products every year and rarely do I get this excited."
"We are honored to work with Richard and gain his insights and endorsement as we bring our solution to market", adds Spyderbat CEO Marc Willebeek-LeMair. "Combining Richard's input with what we are learning from our ongoing Design Partner program, we are set up well to tackle the complexity of security operations and come to market with a solution that has immediate impact and value for security analysts."
Spyderbat's Spydertrace is the first and only to fuse ground-truth operation data with security context based on their causal connections to pinpoint and preempt attacks at extraordinary speed. According to Stiennon, "ATI is not incremental technology. The Spydertrace technology goes far beyond machine learning and AI. It pre-maps all your computing processes, network connections, and file access by their causal connections so that all preceding activity related to an alert is immediately available for fast remediation."
