Threat Prevention Toolchain

Cyware is a cybersecurity company founded in 2016 that provides an AI-powered Cyber Fusion platform for enterprises, managed security service providers (MSSPs), and information sharing communities. The company's cloud-based platform integrates threat intelligence, security orchestration, automation and response (SOAR), and collaborative threat response capabilities. Cyware's solution aims to transform traditional security operations centers (SOCs) into Cyber Fusion Centers by breaking down data silos and enabling security teams to correlate threat intelligence with detection, threat hunting, vulnerability management, and incident response operations.
The Cyware platform consists of four core modules: Intel Exchange for threat intelligence ingestion and sharing, Collaborate for alert aggregation and advisory sharing, Orchestrate for workflow automation, and Respond for case management and incident response. These modules can be used together or individually, offering flexibility to customers. The platform facilitates automated threat intelligence sharing and analysis for over 30,000 enterprise members and government entities through Information Sharing and Analysis Centers (ISACs), Information Sharing and Analysis Organizations (ISAOs), and Computer Emergency Response Teams (CERTs).
Cyware's technology emphasizes proactive engagement and aims to optimize security operations by eliminating organizational silos. The platform can trigger automated actions in response to threat information, such as running antivirus scans on systems showing unusual activity. For complex incidents, Cyware's algorithms can alert cybersecurity team members when manual intervention is required. The company has reported a six-fold growth since its Series A funding in 2020. Cyware has also achieved FedRAMP Ready status for its Cyber Fusion platform in January 2023 and was recognized in the 2022 Deloitte Technology Fast 500 as one of the fastest-growing technology firms in North America.
Key customers and partnerships
Cyware's customer base includes Fortune 1000 companies, financial services firms, healthcare organizations, energy companies, and retail businesses. The company has also gained significant traction within the ISAC community, with more than 20 ISACs using its platform. Cyware's solutions power the majority of ISAC, ISAO, CERT, and other threat intelligence sharing communities, delivering critical threat alerts to over 25,000 member organizations. In September 2021, Cyware became a contributor sponsor of the US Cyber Games, supporting the development of cybersecurity talent and the formation of the first US Cyber Team to compete in international competitions.

Cyware provides cyber fusion solutions to help businesses detect and stop advanced cyberattacks. Cyware offers the technology organizations need to build a virtual cyber fusion center. With separate but integrated solutions including an advanced threat intel platform (TIP), vendor-agnostic security automation (SOAR), and security case management, organizations can increase speed and accuracy while reducing costs and analyst burnout. Cyware's virtual cyber fusion solutions make secure collaboration, information sharing, and enhanced threat visibility a reality for enterprises, sharing communities (ISAC/ISAO), MSSPs, and government agencies of all sizes and needs.
