BOSTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Allure Security has been selected as the “Overall Incident Response Solution Provider of the Year” by the Cybersecurity Breakthrough Awards, an independent organization that recognizes the top companies, technologies and products in the global information security market.
Allure’s active breach defense solution is a significant departure from current enterprise security offerings that rely on data loss prevention and incident response through the monitoring of network endpoints, honeynets and data encryption. By deploying patented decoy documents -- highly convincing deceptive documents embedded with beacons -- within the organization’s real operational environment, Allure provides actionable intelligence on malicious access to and sharing of corporate documents. Its proprietary technology gives enterprise security teams the ability to detect and immediately respond to early-stage data breaches, and to reveal the identity of leakers and hackers.
“Prevention alone won’t stop data loss, just as installing locks on doors and windows won’t keep determined burglars out of your home. Homeowners rely on alarm systems as a practical line of defense; enterprises can realize the same peace of mind from our patented decoy documents, which act as an alarm system with GPS for confidential data,” explained Salvatore J. Stolfo, chief technology officer and co-founder of Allure Security. “We’re honored that the expert judges at Cybersecurity Breakthrough recognize the value and innovation in our approach.”
