DARKTRACE SELF-LEARNING
DETECTION EXTENDED TO SAAS APPLICATIONS

Visibility for Salesforce.com, Google Apps, and Office 365 Now
Available

Singapore, September 14,
2016 – Darktrace, the leader in Enterprise Immune
System technology, has announced that it has extended the coverage of its
self-learning technology to SaaS applications, including Salesforce.com.

As
organizations increasingly embrace cloud applications, significant blind spots
have developed, with critical data and user interactions falling out of sight.
Darktrace’s new SaaS connectors for Salesforce.com, Box, and Office 365 extend
its visibility into critical, yet previously-unmonitored areas of the
infrastructure, which may now benefit from the self-learning capability of
Darktrace’s core Enterprise Immune System technology, based on machine learning
and mathematics developed at the University of Cambridge.

Darktrace
SaaS connectors immediately enhance Darktrace’s visibility, with rich data such
as user logins, data transfers and downloads, and updates, allowing suspicious
behaviors or abnormal activity – whether via a home network, or public WiFi
–  to be detected in real time.

Benefits

§  Complete
visibility of user interactions within SaaS applications

§  Easy
install – less than an hour

§  Early-stage
threat detection

§  Includes
Salesforce.com, Box, Google Apps, Dropbox, and Microsoft Office 365

“It is no
longer viable for SaaS applications to remain a blind spot to security
operators, given the richness of data and the scope for threats to propagate,”
said Nicole Eagan, CEO, Darktrace. “This is a big step forward – our customers
can embrace all the flexibility that SaaS offers, while understanding and
safeguarding those systems using our self-learning technology.”
