Halcyon Closes the Ransomware Gap

Counter ever evolving ransomware risks while boosting the effectiveness of your EPP, EDR and XDR solutions. Halcyon frees your team to focus on what matters most by fortifying your security against risk. Ransomware protection that powers progress.

Prevent Ransomware Execution with Our AI-Driven Engine

Trained with a hyper focus on recognizing ransomware, our AI engine detects and prevents malicious files, apps, and processes, even if it's a brand-new or zero-day threat.

Thwart Vulnerable Driver Exploitation

Kernel Guard Protection blocks attackers from exploiting trusted but vulnerable drivers, stopping BYOVD attacks in their tracks and keeping your system secure from outside threats

Protect Against EDR Tampering and Sabotage

Quickly identify any tampering or sabotage of key security services like Microsoft® Defender, CrowdStrike®, SentinelOne®, and Palo Alto Networks® Cortex®, so attackers can’t slip in undetected.

Deter Living off the Land Attacks

Detect and stop ransomware attacks launched through PowerShell®, WMIC, and other tools neutralizing their efforts, and automatically protect your volume shadow services (VSS) from being corrupted.

Uncover Data Exfiltration Efforts

Spot and identify data theft attempts by monitoring suspicious IPS, DNS activity, and data volumes protecting you from ransomware’s now common ‘double-extortion’ tactics.

Detect and Disrupt Encryption Attempts

Automatically capture encryption keys and data attackers use during a ransomware attack so you can rapidly recover your files and skip paying the ransom.
Halcyon Ransomware Detection & Recovery (RDR)

Turn Our Expertise Into Your Defensive Advantage

INITIAL ACCESS
Halcyon detects when attackers use malicious executables, brute force attempts, or command and control (C2) infrastructure to access your environment.
PREVENTION
DXP
After gaining initial access, attackers typically use remote access tools to carry out their attacks more effectively. Halcyon detects this activity, creating alerts for immediate investigations.
PREVENTION
DXP
Halcyon alerts and interrupts an attacker's attempt to escalate user privileges using malicious executables or vulnerable kernel drivers. 
PREVENTION
KERNEL GUARD
Halcyon identifies when an attacker attempts to enumerate your environment for recon and intel gathering, to make their attack ultimately more effective. 
PREVENTION
Halcyon understands attackers' methods to harvest valid user credentials, detecting and preventing their actions automatically. 
PREVENTION
Halcyon detects and prevents when attackers attempt to move laterally across your environment. For example, when using an RMM tool to try and connect to machines in environment, Halcyon can halt their progression. 
PREVENTION
Halcyon employs unique features like EDR Last Gasp and Tamper Guard to protect against attackers' attempts to bypass and disable security products in real-time. 
LAST GASP
TAMPER GUARD
Halcyon Data Exfiltration Protection (DXP) acts as an early warning system alerting you of an attacker's attempt to steal your data, yet to be caught by other security tools.
DXP
Halcyon can detect and disrupt an attacker attempting to gain initial access into your environment using malicious executables, brute force attacks, or command and control (C2) infrastructure.
BEHAVIORAL
DXP
Halcyon's ability to decrypt data using captured key material allows for an alternative recovery path if data is encrypted during a ransomware event.
