Google Cloud and Cybereason team up to power XDR Innovation

Cybereason and Microsoft have announced a partnership to develop and sell unmatched Extended Detection and Response (XDR) spanning endpoints, networks, cloud, and workplaces at breakneck speed.

“Google Cloud’s ability to hunt through petabytes of data at the speed of search, combined with Cybereason’s revolutionary correlation capabilities and behavior-based detections, delivers unparalleled speed and accuracy in the prevention, detection, and response of advanced attacks,” said Cybereason CEO and co-founder Lior Div.

He added, “We founded Cybereason with a mission  to reverse the attacker’s advantage and return the high ground to the defender, and we are excited to have Google Cloud partner with us in furthering the success of this mission.”

“Google Cloud is dedicated to delivering the industry’s most trusted cloud to accelerate customers’ digital transformation efforts with security products that meet them wherever they are. Cybereason continues to disrupt the market and delivers on their vision for a future-ready extended detection and response defense platform,” said Thomas Kurian, CEO, Google Cloud.

He added, “We’re excited to partner with Cybereason to help customers quickly secure their hybrid and cloud environments with the combined capabilities of Google Cloud and Cybereason’s XDR services.”

Cybereason provides the complete protection currently available on the market, evaluating more than 23 trillion security-related events per week, five times the amount of any other solution. Cybereason shows the whole assault story across every device, user identity, application, and cloud deployment using its patented Malicious Operations (MalOpsTM) engine. Meanwhile, Google Cloud’s cybersecurity analytics platform Chronicle ingests, normalizes, and analyses petabytes of data from the whole IT environment on planetary-scale infrastructure.

The combination of these capabilities delivers a cloud-native XDR solution, Cybereason XDR powered by Chronicle, that automates prevention for common attacks, guides analysts through security operations and incident response, and enables threat hunting with precision at a pace never before achieved.

Cybereason has been acknowledged as a leading innovator by renowned third-party organizations for successfully protecting clients and seeing outstanding growth over the last year. Cybereason saved customers from high-profile assaults like SolarWinds, Microsoft Exchange Server attacks, and catastrophic ransomware attacks from DarkSide, REvil, and other ransomware gangs, where many other solutions failed. Because of this level of security, Cybereason was named to the CNBC 2021 Disruptor 50 list and achieved high marks in every category’s MITRE Engenuity ATT&CK Evaluations.
