About
CyActive offers a proactive approach to preventing and detecting threatsby automatically forecasting future malware evolution. Applying bio-inspired algorithms and a deep understanding of hackers' behavior, considerations, and constraints, CyActive solutions predict the evolution of malware and deploy smart detectors to anticipate and block innovative attacks. CyActive's predictive engine forecasts hundreds of thousands of malware derivatives and then trains powerful, future-proof detectors that know what future malware will look like even before it has been created or used. Any detected attack is used as a basis for further predictive intelligence. By actively predicting the advanced threats of tomorrow, CyActive saves companies and organizations from needless financial, operational, and other disasters and reverses the attacker's usual advantage. CyActive was named a cool vendor in "Cool Vendors in Security Infrastructure Protection, 2015" by the Gartner Research Group.
