Kudelski Security Announces Industry’s First Managed Security Services Offering to Feature Illusive Networks’ Deception-Based Technology

llusive's Pioneering Deceptions Everywhere Technology to Enable Kudelski Security’s
Managed Security Services to Minimize Time to Detection and Impact of Breaches
by Forcing Intruders Into an Alternate Reality

Cheseaux-sur-Lausanne, Switzerland and Phoenix (AZ), USA, May 3 , 2017 – Kudelski Security, the
cybersecurity division within the Kudelski Group (SIX:KUD.S) and trusted innovator for the world’s most
security-conscious organizations, today announced that illusive networks’ innovative Deceptions
Everywhere® technology has been integrated into Kudelski Security’s managed security services (MSS)
offerings. This is the first and only managed security services solution to feature illusive’s Deception
Management SystemTM(DMS), creating the most robust enterprise-class protection offering available.

Traditional managed security service providers (MSSPs) offer solutions that do little more than alert
clients to anomalies on the network, often leaving security teams to do the time-consuming work of
identifying real threats. This wastes critical time in the event of a breach and leads clients to question the
value and return on their MSSP investment. In response to this, Kudelski Security has pioneered a new
approach to MSS. Delivered through global Cyber Fusion Centers in Cheseaux, Switzerland and in
Phoenix, Arizona, Kudelski Security’s MSS offerings provide enterprises with the relevant, contextualized,
actionable threat intelligence they need to make better decisions, faster and reduce the time to identify an
attack.

“Kudelski Security distinguishes its MSS offering by adopting cutting-edge technologies and approaches
that better match the security demands created by a continuously evolving threat landscape,” said Rich
Fennessy, Chief Executive Officer of Kudelski Security. “Illusive networks’ Deceptions Everywhere
technology is an important addition to our MSS strategy, enabling us to better protect our clients’ critical
assets by identifying breaches more quickly, slowing attackers down and reducing the damage they can
cause.”

“Illusive’s dynamic cybersecurity solution blankets a company’s entire network with information that
deceives attackers, providing a high detection rate, near zero false positives, plus it is easy both to deploy
and maintain, especially for large organizations,” said Tracy Pallas, vice president, worldwide channels at
illusive networks. “Our industry-leading, pre-emptive deception technology will greatly enhance Kudelski
Security’s market-disruptive approach of providing more effective and valuable managed security
services.”

Typical honeypot networks are easy for experienced hackers to identify, as they are often small and
contain generic file and machine names. Honeypots are passive, placed in the hope that attackers may
stumble upon them. They also lack elements that are present in real endpoints and networks, such as
recent browser histories, logins and other activities. Illusive’s sophisticated approach creates an alternate
network environment that behaves and appears as a real network would. Driven by an advanced machine
learning platform that preemptively identifies attack pathways, best-fit deceptions are autonomously
produced based on continuous real-time environment analysis, deployed agentlessly and set remotely.
By providing an endless source of false information, illusive’s solution mitigates Advanced Persistent
Threats (APT) at the earliest opportunity, enabling clients to detect breaches with real-time forensics and
without disruption to business. If an attacker can determine that they’ve discovered a network guarded
with deception technology, they will move even slower, knowing that any wrong maneuver will alert the
enterprise to their presence and shut them out.

“Illusive keeps intruders guessing even if they’ve managed to penetrate an enterprise’s real network. We
are able to deploy deceptions everywhere, learn how attackers behave and expose their tactics, creating
actionable intelligence for security teams to use in order to fortify their environment against future
threats,” said Alton Kizziah, vice president, global managed services, Kudelski Security. “The fact that
both companies create advanced solutions that provide relevant threat data and reduce time to detection
make this an ideal partnership. Our already robust managed service offering is now made even more
powerful through this integration.”
