CyberCube, a provider of cyber risk analytics, has announced the debut of CAERS, a new cyber incident response service for customers of the company's SaaS products.
CyberCube will join with Kroll, a renowned provider of data, technology, and insights linked to risk, governance, and growth, to deliver information and assistance on important cyber aggregation events to CyberCube's clients through the Cyber Aggregation Event Response Service (CAERS). Kroll will give frontline threat intelligence derived from its tens of thousands of incident response cases each year.
After a big cyber event, the CAERS team will give CyberCube's clients the most up-to-date information, and CyberCube's SaaS solutions, such as Broker Manager, Account Manager, and Portfolio Manager, will help with any impending cyber disasters.
Darren Thomson, CyberCube’s Head of Cyber Intelligence Services, expressed, “With cyber events becoming increasingly common, the speed and accuracy with which organisations respond to them is critical. That’s why we’ve launched this response service, specifically tailored to CyberCube’s growing client base. The pressure on our clients during a major cyberattack can be extreme. With CAERS, our team—comprising data scientists, actuaries, engineers, economists, and cyber security experts—will become an extension of our clients’ teams, providing the updates they need and sharing both our expertise and data.”
We’re pleased to be contributing to CAERS because effective incident response depends on the most current and relevant threat intelligence available. In our most recent Threat Landscape Report, we saw a 356% growth in the number of attacks quarter-on-quarter where the infection vector was a zero-day or freshly-announced software exploit. Ransomware groups have also been found to be leveraging newly announced vulnerabilities just days after release. It is only with access to frontline intelligence that firms can prioritize resources, mitigate the risk of a cyberattack and react appropriately if the worst happens.”
