“We are excited to promote Cyberstanc as the next Arbiter in the PolySwarm Marketplace. The Cyberstanc Engine has proven itself in the PolySwarm Marketplace to be reliable and accurate for the past 2.5 years. Their unique malware detection and threat intelligence insights will continue to support PolySwarm’s crowdsourced ecosystem of innovative anti-malware engines in their fight against malware.” - Steve Bassi, CEO of PolySwarm.
AI-driven cybersecurity company, Cyberstanc’s Engine joined PolySwarm’s Marketplace on Oct 29, 2020. Since then, their threat detection engine has proven to accurately and reliably detect malware. And as a result, they have earned the role of Arbiter. Cyberstanc’s new role within the platform will be to arbitrate on engine determinations to establish ‘ground truth,’ which means making a final decision on the maliciousness of submitted samples 2 to 3 weeks after first being scanned.
“As pioneers in malware detection and mitigation strategies, our partnership with PolySwarm has led to a more secure digital world. Our exceptional capabilities in detecting and preventing malicious attacks as an arbiter ensure a collaborative ecosystem for malware analysis. Our reliable threat detection engine enables us to make final decisions on tracking APT groups and detecting new malware, providing customers with a rapid response to new and evasive threats.” - Rohit Bankoti, Cyberstanc Founder and COO.
