As part of the Summer 2020 release, Ava now includes decision support capabilities that allow analysts to ask for help with an investigation and receive answers to important, yet potentially unsolicited questions they may not even know to ask. This allows security teams to make faster decisions based on a comprehensive view of an attack. The Awake Platform processes billions of signals from an organization’s network, open-source intelligence, and other relevant sources in real-time. Through federated machine learning, Awake preserves privacy and does not force a choice between data sovereignty and cloud scaling.
“Our IT team wears many hats, including security, so it’s critical that the tools we use strengthen our security posture without slowing us down,” said Drazen Vamplin, Director of Information Technology at Semmes Murphey Clinic, a leader in caring for patients with neurological and spine disorders. “We are confident these latest innovations will drive strong and positive business outcomes, especially when combined with Awake’s managed network detection and response expertise.”
