For example, this capability will be introduced as a new module in the Prevent product family, feeding organisation-specific web data to Darktrace’s Attack Path Modeling technology. See additional information on Darktrace’s Prevent Product suite and Attack Path Modeling technology here.
Through this acquisition, Darktrace gains a second European R&D Centre in The Hague, Netherlands, joining forces with its world-class, Cambridge-based mathematicians and software engineers. Cybersprint’s employees bring a deep understanding of how to continuously model real-time internet data as well as ethical hacking expertise.
Are you in a similar Cyber Boat?
Similar Cyber Boat?
These phrases are coming up as Hybrid work continues into 2022:
-
We’re lean on resource; if anything gets through our stack 24/7 real-time detection and response isn’t possible.
-
Alerts are everywhere across Endpoint, Email and 0365/Cloud, we want one prioritized pane of glass
-
What if the next Log4j hits us? How do we mitigate impact?
-
End users remain our biggest risk
If any resonate, a conversation with our partner, Darktrace, could make sense.
They’re able to have 24/7 detection and response for their hybrid workforce by using self-learning AI that understands ‘on the job’ normal business activity. It means they stop sophisticated cyber threats (ransomware, zero-days, social engineering, account compromise) in real-time while preventing operational disruption.

Major bank: Acunetix scans multiple applications automatically
Major bank: Acunetix scans multiple applications automatically
We can detect more vulnerabilities with Acunetix than other scanners.
The challenge: Too many applications, not enough time
This Acunetix customer is a Spanish multinational financial services company serving nearly 18 million customers. Their business relies on many web applications, and keeping them safe is difficult. There are also regulations to follow, including PCI DSS, GDPR, and more.
The bank’s cybersecurity team must prevent web security issues at all costs. However, scanning every application manually is not possible. There are too many web assets to protect. One mistake could hurt the bank’s reputation.
The solution: Acunetix Premium
The bank used a different web application scanner before Acunetix. After comparing the scanners, they decided to go with Acunetix Premium.
Today, the bank uses Acunetix Premium to scan websites, web applications, and APIs. Acunetix Premium then passes results to the bank’s vulnerability management system. There, developers can decide how to fix any issues.
Acunetix gives indications to areas which will require further manual testing.
Acunetix Premium’s automatic scanner can also handle a big workload. It can scan all of the internal and external applications for the cybersecurity team.
It would be impossible to do all the automatic scans in a manual way. As we are a bank with many regulations, it is a must to do automatic scans in all websites and applications.
Finally, Acunetix Premium is always improving. The bank is notified immediately of new features or product updates. The security team also enjoys Acunetix’s training webinars.
We have experienced an improvement over the course of the last few years in customer support and in product development.
Benefits
- Thorough scanning: Acunetix helps cybersecurity teams identify issues in even the most complex applications
- Pentesting support: Acunetix automatically finds all typical vulnerabilities so that penetration testers can focus on more complex issues
- Automation: Acunetix makes it possible to scan many more applications in much less time

I Gaming Case Study - Darktrace
HBG Gaming
Business Background
HBG Gaming is a leading gaming company, providing a host of games to Italian consumers including traditional slot machines, video lotteries, bingo, betting and importantly online games – poker, casino and skill games. The company works closely with the Italian government to ensure the safe management of a large customer base with a combined 4,800 VLTs and 36,000 slot machines in 2015.
By leveraging innovative machine learning, Darktrace’s solution puts businesses like ours ahead in this new age of harmful threats.
Marcello David, Head of IT Security & Compliance
Challenge
As broadband services expand and Internet gaming diversifies across smartphones, tablets and other devices, the industry is increasingly exposed to sophisticated cyber attacks. Securing customers’ personal and financial details is vital for HBG Gaming to provide a reliable gaming service and maintain it’s position as a trusted brand.
Criminals are continually innovating new ways to execute internal and external attacks, adopting increasingly intelligent technologies to breach networks. To better defend against this next-generation risk and identify emerging threats early, HBG Gaming requires in-depth visibility of its digital infrastructure. The company possesses a number of standard border securities including anti-virus software, web gateways and event management tools, but has found none of them provide adequate analytics and are often complex and time-consuming to install.
Solution
HBG Gaming chose Darktrace’s Enterprise Immune System in order to understand its network’s ‘pattern of life’ and identify abnormal behaviors, before they cause business damage. The company decided to deploy a ‘Proof of Value’ over a four-week period to test how Darktrace’s unique self-learning technology could alert its security team to real, emerging threats already in its network. Powered by machine learning and mathematics, Darktrace has the capability to monitor the behaviours of every network, device, and user to detect even the subtlest anomaly. Unlike traditional defenses that rely on rules and signatures to recognise attacks, Darktrace models a network’s ‘pattern of life’ and is able to distinguish suspicious behaviors that deviate from the norm. Thus, in this new era of pernicious attacks, Darktrace equips HBG Gaming with an advanced solution able to detect unfamiliar threats that would otherwise go unnoticed by legacy systems.
Benefits
Within weeks Darktrace could identify suspicious behavior in HBG Gaming’s network, like ransomware, with potentially serious implications. The Enterprise Immune System alerts the business’ security team early, allowing them to take
action and mitigate risk before it becomes a serious issue. The immune system approach is now fundamental to HBG Gaming’s cyber security strategy. Darktrace only flags the genuinely suspicious events rather than bombarding security personnel with false positives, allowing HBG Gaming’s teams to prioritize and optimize its resources more effectively. Darktrace’s Threat Visualizer provides a 3D display of all network activity in real time. This intuitive interface enables nontechnical senior executives – the most vulnerable to attacks –
to gain meaningful insight into their network behaviours and implement stronger defenses across the company. “By leveraging innovative machine learning, Darktrace’s solution puts businesses like ours ahead in this new age of harmful threats.”
“Darktrace enhances our cyber security strategy beyond protecting our company borders, and has already detected potentially damaging threats inside our networks,” said
Marcello David, Head of IT Security & Compliance, HBG Gaming.
