About CyberKord

CyberKord sells a service that answers security alerts day and night, without waiting for a person. CyberKord starts from what a SOC already produces: an alert, a ticket, or a message in Teams or Slack.[1][2]

EDR, XDR, SIEM and exposure tools already raise the alert. After that, an analyst triages, scopes the blast radius and agrees the change, and until someone acts the attacker keeps moving. CyberKord works between the alert and the action.[2]

CyberKord uses a live map that shows which assets are affected and reachable. Only what is exploitable in the customer's environment is kept. The change runs on a copy first, to show what changes and what breaks. A rule set by the customer decides whether CyberKord acts now or asks first.[2]

Each use case starts from an alert, a ticket or a message that the team already receives. CyberKord checks exposure, simulates the containment and applies it, and the report is waiting in the morning.[2]

CyberKord can run with no write access, so the team sees what it would have done on real alerts. With approval, CyberKord proves the change on the simulation, the team signs off and CyberKord applies it. After enough safe outcomes on record, CyberKord can act on its own, with no human bottleneck unless the customer wants one.[2]

One container reads the customer's tools and alerts. CyberKord produces reports on real alerts from the SOC, with no production changes. The customer decides which alerts CyberKord acts on, and when. CyberKord is backed by 360 Capital, Plus Partners, Addendum Capital and Vento (Exor).[2]
