Darktrace Signs Multi-Million-Dollar Deal with Top Global Airline
PR94121
CAMBRIDGE, England, Jan. 19, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --
Darktrace, a global leader in cyber security AI, today announced that one of
the world's largest airlines has signed a major renewal with Darktrace as it
continues to use Self-Learning AI technology to defend against cyber-attacks.
The global aviation company, which operates close to a thousand flights every
day to over 100 destinations, has deployed Darktrace Enterprise Immune System
and Antigena Network to protect the business from sophisticated threat actors –
from the cloud to the corporate network. It relies on Darktrace's AI to
autonomously take machine-speed action against fast-moving, in-progress attacks
without disrupting business operations.
The aviation sector has long been targeted by cyber adversaries due to the high
volume of sensitive data airline companies hold – whether it be Passenger
Manifest data of value to the world's Intelligence Agencies, or data relating
to high value transactions which can be exploited by criminals. With
unprecedented levels of travel disruption caused by the pandemic, the risk of
fraud and abuse has never been higher. The acceleration of contact-free
boarding and other digital services has introduced another level of risk as
attackers seek new entry points to one of the most safety-critical sectors in
the world.
"Darktrace is delighted to be working with this major airline to ensure it
stays protected in today's complex threat environment," said Poppy Gustafsson
OBE, CEO of Darktrace. "As the aviation industry battles new threats targeting
the technologies which are so critical to its business operations, the role of
AI in containing and fighting back against these attacks has never been more
important."
