Halcyon partners with BlackLake to combat ransomware threats
Halcyon has announced a strategic partnership with BlackLake Security aimed at enhancing resilience against ransomware attacks.
The collaboration brings together Halcyon's Anti-Ransomware Platform and BlackLake's Clarity Now risk analysis and mitigation services to create a comprehensive solution designed to impede ransomware threats and mitigate extortion risks.
"Halcyon is designed to work in concert with other aspects of the security stack to help companies get maximum return on their security investment," stated Chris Catanzaro, VP of Global MSSP and Channels at Halcyon. "The new strategic partnership between Halcyon and BlackLake will deliver the outcomes that business leaders want in response to ransomware - no business impact. With Halcyon resilience technology and BlackLake mitigation services, we can insulate customers from ransomware and give companies peace of mind."
The Halcyon Anti-Ransomware Platform is specified to insulate organizations from disruptions caused by ransomware attacks. This technology focuses on preventing ransomware operators from triggering harmful payloads through key material capture and automated decryption functionalities. Additionally, Halcyon's Data Exfiltration Prevention (DXP) feature aims to counteract extortion campaigns effectively, ensuring that threat actors cannot exploit stolen data to pressure companies.
BlackLake's contribution comes in the form of its Clarity Now services, which adopt a business-centric methodology for risk analysis. This approach is asserted to deliver outcome-oriented results while simultaneously reducing operating costs, optimising productivity, and enhancing service quality. The combination of both companies' technologies is anticipated to help organisations endure ransomware attacks with minimal disruption to business operations.
Kirk Jones, Founder and President of BlackLake Security, remarked, "At BlackLake Security, we're committed to empowering organizations with the tools and insights they need to stay ahead of evolving threats. Our partnership with Halcyon represents a significant step forward in our mission to deliver comprehensive, business-focused security solutions. By combining our Clarity Now services with innovative Halcyon anti-ransomware technology, we can provide our clients with unparalleled protection and the confidence to operate without fear of disruption."
The joint solution is designed to provide businesses with a sense of security against ransomware by halting attacks in progress and rendering ransomware inoperative. This development reflects both companies' commitment to enhancing cybersecurity measures and offering robust defences against increasingly sophisticated ransomware threats.
