Kenna Security and ReversingLabs Partner to Identify and Prevent Malware Threats

San Francisco, December 13, 2017 – Kenna Security, a leader in vulnerability and cyber risk management, today announced results from its partnership with ReversingLabs, a leading provider of threat intelligence solutions that accelerate and broaden an organization’s ability to detect threats, respond to incidents, and gain visibility into advanced attacks.

The technology partnership integrates ReversingLabs’ real-time malware threat intelligence into the Kenna Security Platform. Kenna customers benefit from:

  • The ability to identify which of a company’s vulnerabilities are targeted by malware; their Kenna risk scoring will elevate accordingly.
  • Additional intelligence, including real-time telemetry about “in the wild” malware attacks, their volume (increasing use) and velocity (exploit frequency) that further informs Kenna Security’s real-time prioritization analysis.
  • Visual tagging of malware targeted vulnerabilities, with respectively increased risk scores, and prioritized using Kenna Security’s unique data-science driven risk analysis.
  • The ability to identify malware hashes to identify if and where malware strains exist across their network, enabling them to quickly and proactively both remove malware instances and remediate malware-targeted vulnerabilities.

These powerful enhancements are available immediately to all Kenna customers.

“We are excited to partner with ReversingLabs. Malware is an important and dangerous attack vector that threatens all of our customers,” said Ed Bellis, co-founder and CTO at Kenna Security. “ReversingLabs’ threat intelligence enhances the Kenna Security Platform with the critical link between malware and the vulnerabilities they exploit. This enables our customers to work across IT to effortlessly prioritize malware-targeted vulnerabilities and reduce cyber risk together.”

“It’s been a pleasure working with the Kenna Security team to successfully deliver this integration which enhances the ability to detect and defeat advanced cybersecurity threats,” said Mario Vuksan, CEO at ReversingLabs. “This effort is a great example of how our technology can be applied to help Kenna Security’s customers identify and prioritize vulnerabilities targeted by malware, as well as making their threat hunting tools more effective.”
