Such an acquisition is part of Arctic Wolf's efforts to strengthen its Aurora open-XDR platform, which will be gaining additional capabilities provided by the AI-based endpoint security technology of Cylance, with Arctic Wolf CEO Nick Schneider noting the importance of an integrated platform in combating cybersecurity risks.
Once integrated, the Business Applications sensor enables organizations to monitor security events, establish behavior baselines, detect anomalies, and restrict access to suspicious users within a cloud environment.
Such a purchase deal would strengthen N-able's integration of Adlumin's XDR platform, which not only determines potentially malicious network activity patterns through artificial intelligence but also identifies and prioritizes security vulnerabilities, as well as facilitates breach analysis and remediation through a managed detection and response service.
The deal will add another prominent cybersecurity company to Cisco’s portfolio. In the past eight months alone, the company has acquired email and AI cybersecurity firm Armorblox, cloud security firm Lightspin and network security business Valtix.
