“COVID-19 has forced organizations to implement work from home policies virtually overnight, leaving them no time to change and deploy new controls for securing data accessed by remote workers and to protect against third party risk. This has created many new security challenges including a massive attack surface of personal use devices that have access to confidential corporate resources,” said Saryu Nayyar, CEO of Gurucul. “Using our free cloud-delivered security analytics services, organizations can instantly protect their most sensitive data from threats that attempt to exploit employee and third-party service provider identities and devices.”
The company has assembled a dedicated “Gurucul COVID-19 Threat Research Lab” or “GC-Lab” composed of analysts and data scientists who are researching COVID-19 cyber risk threat patterns in collaboration with a customer consortium. GC-Lab has built a solution package specifically to address COVID-19 threats to remote workforces and third party risk, which includes a dedicated dashboard and supervised models trained on the changes in behavior patterns seen over the past several weeks.
