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.

Darktrace, the leader in intelligence-led Behavioral Cyber Defense, has announced that Sir Jonathan Evans has joined its Advisory Board.

Darktrace brings a fundamentally new approach to cyber security, based on revolutionary new Bayesian mathematics developed at the University of Cambridge and unique expertise in cyber security intelligence and protecting sensitive information.

Sir Jonathan is the former director-general of the UK's Secret Service, MI5, where he spent thirty-three years focusing on internal and domestic counter-terrorism and cyber-threats.

"As cyber-threats become more sophisticated and better-resourced, we urgently require a new approach founded on unique cyber expertise and pioneering technology," said Sir Jonathan Evans. "Darktrace represents a new thinking around the cyber challenge, which embraces the complexity of our environments and works to protect our most important assets."
