Conceal Unveils MSP Community Program

Conceal, the leader in browser security for managed service providers, today announced the launch of its Conceal MSP Community Program. A significant highlight of this initiative is the offer of a free NFR license for Managed Service Providers (MSPs), demonstrating Conceal's commitment to strengthening its partnerships within the MSP community.

Conceal continues to build on its significant traction within the MSP ecosystem, always responsive to partner feedback and striving to simplify and enhance the effectiveness of its deployment process. The Conceal MSP Community Program marks a new chapter in this ongoing dialogue, with the free NFR license aimed at enabling MSPs to fully experience and understand the power of the ConcealBrowse solution, thus facilitating its integration into their service offerings.

“Our partnership with Conceal has empowered us to offer a comprehensive cybersecurity package that's second to none," declared Dave Thompson of TeamLogic IT of San Ramon, CA. "Their ConcealBrowse solution, with its cutting-edge isolation technology, has been instrumental in defending our clients against malware and ransomware. The fact that it can be easily integrated into our existing security offerings has enhanced the overall value we deliver to our clients. We're proud to work with a partner who shares our commitment to cybersecurity resilience.”

Furthermore, Conceal recognizes the cybersecurity challenges small to mid-sized companies face, notably ransomware and credential theft. Through the Conceal MSP Community Program, MSPs will be in a stronger position to offer innovative solutions to these threats. ConcealBrowse can easily be integrated into existing security packages or function as a standalone solution for companies lacking protection, thereby increasing overall cybersecurity resilience within limited budgets.

BlackBerry Announces Generative AI Powered Cybersecurity Assistant

PR Newswire | October 23, 2023

BlackBerry Limited (NYSE: BB; TSX: BB) today announced its new Generative AI powered assistant for Security Operations Center (SOC) teams. The enterprise-grade solution acts as a SOC Analyst providing Generative AI based cyberthreat analysis and support to enhance CISO operations. It leverages private large language models (LLMs) for greater accuracy and data privacy. The solution, which will be available to BlackBerry's Cylance AI customers, predicts customer needs to proactively provide information rather than requiring users to manually ask questions and compresses research hours into seconds. Fully integrated in the Cylance Console, it produces a natural workflow instead of an inefficient chatbot experience. Cylance launched as the industry's first AI cybersecurity solution and the industry's first predictive cybersecurity solution. Predictive cybersecurity is a must for emerging cyber risks and seen as the future of cybersecurity. BlackBerry pioneered the AI cybersecurity market and our commitment to innovation means we are once again at the forefront of the industry as we unveil our Generative AI powered cybersecurity assistant, said Nathan Jenniges, SVP & GM Spark, Cybersecurity Business Unit, BlackBerry. This new solution will enable our customers to modernize their SOC operations helping them to stay a step ahead of the adversary. It will be invaluable to CISOs in overcoming the challenges they face, including an evolving threat landscape and resource constraints. BlackBerry has delivered transformative innovation for almost forty years and continues to set a standard in the technology industry. In the field of AI this is evidenced by the company today having more than five times the AI/ML patents than competitors and AI being integrated across the company's product portfolio. Furthermore, BlackBerry earlier this month was one of the first signatories of Canada's voluntary Code of Conduct on the responsible development and management of advanced Generative AI systems. "Generative AI has the potential to deliver tremendous economic value, making it an area of focus for BlackBerry. Our patent portfolio already includes Generative AI," said Charles Eagan, Chief Technology Officer, BlackBerry. "Throughout our innovations we take our commitment to delivering enterprise-grade solutions seriously – innovations that deliver value rather than react to hype – as demonstrated by today's announcement and our being one of the first signatories of Canada's voluntary Generative AI Code of Conduct." BlackBerry's Generative AI powered cybersecurity assistant will initially be made available to a select group of customers. For more information register for BlackBerry Summit, taking place on October 17, where leaders from government, enterprise and BlackBerry will reveal the future of IoT, IT and Cybersecurity and showcase the latest BlackBerry innovations.

As a result, businesses gain the ability to more effectively prioritize and respond to security risks that could impact revenue and reputation in real time, leading to a reduction in overall organizational risk profiles. As organizations strive to provide smooth digital experiences, IT teams have faced growing demands to transition to modern, distributed applications. According to a recent study by Cisco, 92% of global technologists acknowledge that the urgency to innovate and adapt to evolving customer needs has often resulted in compromised application security during software development. As a consequence, organizations have become susceptible to security vulnerabilities and threats. They face broader attack surfaces and gaps in their application security layer due to the isolation of teams. These teams face challenges in obtaining adequate visibility and the necessary business context for prioritizing vulnerabilities. Consequently, organizations are witnessing a surge in security incidents within the modern environment, thereby jeopardizing customer data and the reputation of their businesses. Mark Leary, Research Director, IDC, stated, Cisco's extensive domain experience across multi-cloud and hybrid environments and comprehensive full tech stack oversight positions the company well to assist customers bring business risk observability, application observability, and security intelligence data together.
