Overview

Ziften delivers unprecedented network visibility to enterprise security teams by extending network visibility down to the endpoint. Ziften’s solution reduces threat detection and mitigation time by 70 percent – on average from 14 hours to four hours – with the ability to stop the attack from spreading. This potentially eliminates millions in costs and protects a company’s reputation with their customers, employees, partners, and investors.

Ziften recently won the Red Herring Top 100 Global Award in 2015. Computer Technology Review selected the company as a Most Valuable Product (MVP) award winner in the Security category, CIO Review named Ziften to its “20 Most Promising RSA Security Solution Providers” list, and Ziften was also listed as the top Endpoint Threat Detection vendor on Cybersecurity 500, a directory of the hottest and most innovative cybersecurity companies to watch in 2015 according to Cybersecurity Ventures.

How we are different

• Threats are faster, smarter, and more targeted than ever before, working their way around traditional prevention solutions and often getting straight to the point; the endpoints. Once breached, the endpoints—laptops, desktops, servers, and more—spread their malicious load to additional victims within 60 minutes, and it continues to permeate throughout the organization. According to recent reports: 71% of breaches and attacks involved compromised end-user devices. (2013 Verizon Data Breach Investigation Report). Speed kills in cyber security, and for many security teams it’s their inability to monitor and act fast enough to detect and respond to these attacks. At Ziften we understood this challenge and purpose-built our continuous endpoint visibility solution to be deployed quickly and to immediately amplify the skillset of any security team and the tools they already have in place.
• Ziften architected its endpoint innovation with a solution that provides continuous visibility and high performance; with ultra-low resource consumption Ziften leaves only a negligible footprint in resource usage, maximizes data storage, and scales seamlessly. That allows our customers to focus on the end result: the immediate discovery, analysis, and response to security exposures on their endpoints.
• The existing market is traditional endpoint anti-virus (sometimes referred to as Endpoint Protection Platforms). EPP only knows how to eradicated known malware, and the problem with this approach is that malware exists in organizations’ networks for over 200 days before it is discovered. Ziften is disrupting this model by looking at all processes, good, bad, and the unknown, and analyzing them to determine if they are Indicators of Compromise, vulnerable software that can easily be breached, or if the systems running the processes are compliant with security policies.
