Η Microsoft announced the acquisition of Hexadite, a Boston-based company that works with researchers from Tel Aviv, Israel. The company focuses specifically on the development of automated case management and systems recovery solutions.
If at first reading your company's specialization sounds like a nuclear title scienceς, αυτό που σχεδιάζει να κάνει η Microsoft με αυτή την εξαγορά είναι να βελτιώσει την Προστασία από Προηγμένες Απειλές στο Windows Defender with automatic investigation and remediation capabilities using artificial intelligence, powered by Hexadite technology.
Microsoft's ultimate goal is to provide enhanced security in Windows 10, enhance protection against zero-day attacks, ransomware and other cyberthreats in addition to malware, and whose detection is usually based on past tracking methods.
Entire team of Hexadite will be hired by Microsoft and the company will be integrated into the Windows and Devices Group, which means the focus will be on improving features security in Windows 10.
"Our vision is to offer a new generation of security features to our customers to protect, detect and respond to the ever-evolving and ever-changing landscape of cyberthreats," said Terry Myerson, Executive Vice President of Windows and Microsoft Devices Group.
"Hexadite technology and talent will enhance our existing capabilities and enable us to add new tools and services to Microsoft's powerful business security solutions."
Now that they have seen the "powerful security solutions" I personally do not know; perhaps with the addition of new technologies such as the one mentioned above Windows users can enjoy a more secure environment.
