“As a patent attorney and early investor in Cyber Crucible, I've had the privilege of working closely on the cutting-edge technology that drives its cybersecurity solutions. In an era where cyber threats are escalating alarmingly, the need for robust data protection has never been more critical. Ransomware attacks, data breaches, and other forms of cybercrime are increasing in frequency and sophistication, threatening businesses and individuals alike. Having personally developed Cyber Crucible's portfolio of US and international patents that safeguard against ransomware attacks, I can attest to the innovation and effectiveness of Cyber Crucible’s solutions, which were found to be inventive by patent offices in different countries. The company’s technology addresses one of the most pressing challenges of our time—cybersecurity—and provides a proactive defense against threats that could cripple entire industries. In fact, Cyber Crucible has substantiated reasons to believe that other well-funded cybersecurity companies may be publicly claiming to be using Cyber Crucible patented technologies, serving as further confirmation of Cyber Crucible's inventive value in the marketplace. With governments, corporations, and even small businesses urgently seeking advanced protection, the market for cybersecurity solutions is rapidly expanding. I firmly believe Cyber Crucible is uniquely positioned to meet this demand and that investment in this company represents a timely and rewarding opportunity for those looking to be part of the future of data security.”

Ransomware & Identity Hijacking Are Killing Businesses. Cyber Crucible Stops It INSTANTLY.

The Problem: Ransomware attacks are on the rise

Current cybersecurity tools are struggling to defend against modern attacks. With the market for stolen data in decline, cybercriminals have shifted focus to ransomware, a more profitable and disruptive tactic.

These hacking groups operate like businesses, using AI and machine learning to automate attacks, identify vulnerabilities, and outsmart defenses. Their organized structure and advanced tactics make traditional EDR tools, which can only prevent a previously seen attack, increasingly ineffective and unable to keep up.

As a result, businesses are paying the price, with ransomware hitting an all time global high in 2023.

Automated prevention of data and identity cyberattacks

Cyber Crucible is the first and only autonomous, kernel-level security solution designed to detect and neutralize threats in real time, specifically targeting data-focused attacks. Using novel kernel data sources, deception technology and advanced analytics powered by an AI-driven behavioral engine, Cyber Crucible provides unparalleled defense against emerging threats. 

Our patented edge computing analytics engine and unique telemetry sources enable Cyber Crucible to counter zero-day attacks instantly. With laser-focused accuracy and speed, this fully autonomous tool eliminates human latency and errors, detecting, determining and neutralizing threats in under 200 milliseconds.

Cybersecurity solutions that inspired the need for Cyber Crucible

Cybersecurity vendors sometimes combine their Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) tools with Network Detection and Response (NDR) to create an Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solution. Regardless of setup, these solutions’ limited ability to prevent attacks require a blended managed detection response (MDR) services offering along with their primary software offering, in an to attempt to ease the pain of recovering from successful attacks.

In most cases, security analysts are combing through multiple customers’ event logs, looking for common patterns among the customers with a cyberattack in progress. Once enough attacks with the same patterns appear, analysts task the security tools to begin blocking that attack. Cyber criminals now use Robotic Process Automation to automatically create different patterns for every attack. Because of this, analysts can’t find strong patterns between cyberattacks. Now, all they have is a list of victims.


What makes Cyber Crucible different?

Cyber Crucible AI agents detect, decide, and respond to complex data and identity attacks in real-time. Leveraging novel telemetry sources and our patented analytics engine, Cyber Crucible instantly counters zero-day attacks.

The Solution: Cyber Crucible

Cyber Crucible is new innovation that delivers true “left of boom” preventative attack defense. 

Our patented, fully automated software suspends ransomware, data theft, and identity theft attempts without human or cloud analytic dependencies. In other word, Cyber Crucible is not cloud dependent nor does it require security teams staffed with people. 

Cyber Crucible effectively suspends attacks in less than 200 milliseconds and immediately alerts SOC teams that attacks have been stopped. Regardless of the type of malware or how attacks find their way to data, Cyber Crucible simply sees them as a rogue process attempting an action—and very quickly suspends that process. Cyber Crucible has repeatedly discovered, analyzed, and defeated waves of zero day attacks to the great benefit to our clients and partners.

Cybersecurity that’s easy to deploy, easier to manage

  • Microsoft Server Catalog Certification.  The certified for Window server badge demonstrates that a server system meets Microsoft's highest technical bar for security, reliability and manageability: and with other certified devices and drivers, it can support the roles, features and interfaces for Cloud and Enterprise workloads, as well as business critical applications. www.windowsservercatalog.com
  • Runs quietly on endpoints with no disruption and no performance impact where it’s deployed. Workers continue to do their jobs, and servers continue to do theirs. 
  • Attack countermeasures are tailored and targeted. When stopped, they have no impact on an organization’s operations. Users are typically never aware an attack was stopped, allowing IT and security team notifications to be handled calmly and discretely. 
  • Notifications: News of stopped attacks are For Your Eyes Only. End users and employees receive no indication Cyber Crucible action taken, and no productivity interruption. IT teams and security teams alike receive notifications that attacks have been stopped and can take their time to understand how an attack bypassed perimeter defenses. 
  • Meanwhile, data and identities are safe from theft, and business-impacting ransom attacks cannot happen. With Cyber Crucible, it’s business as usual.

What makes Cyber Crucible Different?

Cyber Crucible avoids using backup-based simulations as a form of preventive defense: 

✓ Genetic Algorithm & Reinforced Learning Artificial Intelligence

✓ Autonomous “No Humans Needed” Detection & Response Agents

✓ 100% Effective Without Network Access to Cyber Crucible Servers
