Cylance has used artificial intelligence to enable today’s enterprise and government organizations to prevent cyber attacks on the endpoint. Cylance’s award-winning next-generation antivirus product, CylancePROTECT™, is being rapidly adopted by organizations seeking to rip and replace legacy antivirus solutions that are no longer able to prevent execution of malware in modern cyber attacks.

CylancePROTECT stops what others don’t, without requiring a cloud connection or frequent updates, all while using a fraction of the system resources traditionally associated with antivirus and endpoint security software.

Standing apart from a cybersecurity industry reliant upon outdated detection and response models, Cylance secures through prediction and pre-response at the enterprise endpoint, preventing malware and advanced persistent threat breaches before they cause harm.

We also offer CylanceV, an incident response and forensics tool that enables enterprises to seamlessly integrate the power of the Cylance engine into the SOC, CSIRT, Helpdesk and everywhere in-between. In addition, we offer professional services that provide pre-attack penetration and vulnerability testing, compromise assessments and post-attack incident response. Cylance specializes in securing critical infrastructure and key resources for education, energy, financial services, government, healthcare, heavy industry, and oil.
