Statement regarding LockBit claims

Earlier this morning we became aware of tweets from LockBit, the cyber-criminal gang, claiming that they had compromised Darktrace’s internal security systems and had accessed our data. Our security teams have run a full review of our internal systems and can see no evidence of compromise. None of the LockBit social media posts link to any compromised Darktrace data. We will continue to monitor the situation extremely closely, but based on our current investigations we are confident that our systems remain secure and all customer data is fully protected.

Leading Billing and Payment Provider Billtrust Selects Darktrace

August 25, 2016

Darktrace, the leader in Enterprise Immune System cyber technology, today announces that Billtrust has chosen to deploy its innovative, self-learning technology.

Based in Hamilton, New Jersey, Billtrust, the innovator of Payment Cycle Management solutions, selected Darktrace to monitor and defend its systems, including the sensitive banking information of 4.5 million users.

Following a thorough market review, Billtrust has deployed Darktrace’s Enterprise Immune System technology at the heart of its network to detect potential cyber-threats in real time. The company’s security team was immediately impressed by the easily-accessible visualization into the network, and the ability to deal with emerging anomalous activities, before they escalate.

Powered by machine learning and mathematics developed by specialists from the University of Cambridge, Darktrace works by modeling the behaviors of every device and user, as well as the network as a whole, building an understanding of the organization’s ‘pattern of life’. Unlike traditional defensive security tactics that rely on rules and signatures, Darktrace can identify novel, evolving threats, including insider threats, without any prior knowledge.

“When we first heard of Darktrace, we thought it was too good to be true,” commented Laura Whitt-Winyard, Director of Information Security at Billtrust. “However, the day it deployed, we saw immediate return on investment. Darktrace started mapping our network and understanding what was normal and what was not. In a rapidly-evolving threat landscape, the Enterprise Immune System is absolutely critical to detect new types of attacks and to visualize our network in real time.”

“We are thrilled to be working with Billtrust to help defend its customer information and network,” said Rob Sass, Darktrace Managing Director of North America. “We are in a new era of cyber-threats where all companies are at risk of infiltration. The Enterprise Immune System is the only technology that truly addresses this challenge, by evolving with our customer’s environments, and staying ahead of new cyber-threats from inside the network.”
