Sometimes, one plus one is three.
Back in 2021, McAfee’s Enterprise business merged with FireEye to form Trellix. Today, the net result is a company that generates $1.2 billion globally and $400 million in the public sector.
In today’s interview, Ken Karsten details how federal leaders can use Trellix to improve cybersecurity in a federal world with rapidly increasing end points.
Setting the stage, Ken Karsten reviews an Executive Order 14028 from 2021 that encouraged federal agencies to aggressively protect endpoints, sometimes called Endpoint Detection and Response.
In four short years, AI has transformed the way malicious actors attack end points and the defense had to be improved. Enter, Extended Detection and response.
During the interview, Ken Karsten gives listeners an overview of XDR’s continuous monitoring, advanced analytics, and rapid threat assessment and response capabilities. Advances in AI have allowed Trellix to deliver EDR and XDR capabilities at a drastically reduced cost.
Topics in the discussion include Operational Technology, 5G, and Trellix’s recent DoD IL5 authorization.
