“The underlying technology of MixMode is advanced artificial intelligence, which is a behaviour-based system capable of pinpointing traffic and events that are of the highest risk”
Managing threats and achieving cyber resilience in today’s information age is more of a necessity than a choice. However, staying ahead of unknown threats by detecting novel attacks in real-time is a formidable challenge for many organizations. At the forefront of this pain point lies factors such as the skills shortage, increasing expenses, and lack of holistic solutions that execute round-the-clock monitoring and detection. The existing rules-based security systems are not the answer, as they can only detect attacks with known signatures. This is why organizations need a real-time threat detection and response solution like MixMode, which is purpose-built for unknown attacks and based on patented third-wave AI. The MixMode Platform is the only advanced AI cybersecurity solution that uses a dynamic threat detection foundational model to forecast what’s expected to uncover known and novel attacks. “The underlying technology of MixMode is advanced artificial intelligence, which is a behaviour-based system capable of pinpointing traffic and events that are of the highest risk,” says John Keister, Founder, Chairman, and CEO of MixMode.
MixMode is leading the charge to usher in a new era of cybersecurity because it recognizes the urgent need for a paradigm shift. MixMode’s self-supervised learning platform is context-aware and is the answer to new sophisticated unknown attacks, cybersecurity expenses and the crushing number of false positives. For government organizations and large enterprises that have budget constraints, hiring additional talent to cover every permutation of a given attack is an impossible task. “There’s no way security teams can write enough rules to cover all the different permutations of forthcoming attacks,” mentions Keister. When rules-driven security systems fail, MixMode independently extracts patterns and trends from vast volumes of data. This way, the MixMode Platform adds a sophisticated layer of security capable of defending against modern ChatGPT-assisted or other AI-generated and novel cyberattacks. To increase the efficiency and productivity of the security team, this technology also filters the false positives to surface what matters most.
Unlike many old-school security platforms that require months for deployment, MixMode executes a rapid deployment process that gets the client up and running in minutes, delivering actionable results within 72 hours. The MixMode Platform learns and adapts to each individual network on its own, with zero need to hire specialists to tune or maintain the system. “We step in and plug in the platform, and it starts learning from day one, delivering immediate value,” says Keister.
MixMode caters to global entities across commercial enterprises, government sectors and different industry verticals, distinguishing itself through its customer-centric approach, advanced technology and transparent pricing model. For instance, the City of Phoenix’s cybersecurity team approached the company with a long-term modernization goal. The client wanted to reduce costs by replacing their inefficient cyber tool footprint while also increasing the effectiveness of their cyber defense. MixMode worked with the client’s cybersecurity team and deployed a next-generation SOC platform that leveraged self-learning artificial intelligence technology. This helped the client enable round-the-clock visibility into all known and unknown threats and anomalies in their network. Keister recalls that within the first 24 hours of deployment, MixMode provided visibility into real-time attacks, as well as network and configuration inadequacies that had gone undetected by their security team. In addition, the company successfully consolidated the client’s legacy toolset and improved the productivity of their SOC team significantly.
Such success stories stem from the company’s extensive industry knowledge and expertise in effectively detecting and responding to attacks, particularly from novel threats, which account for the majority of today’s successful attacks. Before developing The MixMode Platform, the company consulted with hundreds of industry experts, partners, and enterprises to understand security teams biggest pain points around detection and response. At the core of the MixMode mission lies an inherent desire to help organizations effortlessly secure their environment against sophisticated cyber-attack. Fostering a culture of collaboration and innovation, MixMode empowers its employees to drive meaningful change and deliver exceptional customer experiences. With a shared vision of advancing cybersecurity resilience, the team at MixMode is dedicated to pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in the fight against cyber threats. “To counter sophisticated threats, we need simple, self-learning, and scalable solutions like MixMode,” says Keister.
