Comcast
recently
acquired
BlueVector, the technology company spun off from defense contractor Northrop
Grumman two years ago which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning
to provide cybersecurity services to companies and government agencies.
This was shortly followed by Verizon announcing the addition of BlackBerry Cylance's AI-driven antivirus
security solutions to its industry-leading Managed Security Services (MSS)
portfolio. Blackberry Cylance, a business unit of BlackBerry Limited (NYSE:BB)
(TSX:BB),
was recently recognized as a leader in five distinct categories at the
2019 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards: Best Cybersecurity Company, Most Innovative
Cybersecurity Company, Endpoint Detection and Response, Endpoint Security and
Best Cybersecurity Podcast.
"Businesses of all sizes are
suffering alert-fatigue generated by other endpoint solutions. Many are turning
to managed security services to gain holistic, expert-level management across
their endpoints, gateways and networks on a round the clock basis," said
Stuart McClure, co-founder of Cylance and President of BlackBerry Cylance.
"By offering BlackBerry Cylance's AI-powered endpoint protection,
Verizon's MSS customers will now have access to a powerful antivirus technology
with the ability to prevent known and unknown threats, reducing the strain on
other security controls, and alerts that must be tracked, processed and
audited."
Cyberfort
Software, Inc. (OTC:
CYBF), a
cyber security technology company, announced new features to its
recently acquired Just Content App, including the imminent release of its
integrated artificial intelligence (AI) solution.

from online threats such as unsafe links, adult content, phishing sites and
inflammatory hate speech found on the Internet. The recent upgrades ship with
the highest security as default, a smooth onboarding experience and data usage
features that provide the best protection for both new and experienced users.

SMSes and robo calls. We are delighted to say that our spam filtering solution
is extremely close to release. At the same time, a content moderation platform
for businesses and enterprises is currently under development,” shares Krishna
Kumar, Senior Developer at Cyberfort Software and Founder of Just Content.
VIQ Solutions Inc. (TSXV: VQS), a
global expert providing cyber-secure AI technology and services has also put
some focus into “on the ground” security, having announced last year its acquisition of Net Transcripts, Inc., a
leading provider of secure multi-speaker documentation services to law
enforcement and criminal justice organizations.
“The acquisition of Net Transcripts, a
market and trusted leader in law enforcement, is a substantial milestone in
VIQ’s growth strategy to expand our portfolio of services, opening up a
significant and growing market in the USA. This highly fragmented market is
undergoing major disruption due to artificial intelligence, which is
encouraging customers to look at innovative ways to unlock the value in their
digital media,” said Sebastien ParĂ©, VIQ President and CEO.
AI
has many obvious uses in the world of cybersecurity but that doesn’t mean it
can’t be applied to real world security situations just as well.
Quest
Solution, Inc. (OTC:
QUES),
a provider of Supply Chain and Artificial Intelligence (AI)-based Machine
Vision solutions, announced that it was
selected to install a state-of-the-art AI-based safety and security system on
the campus of a Pre-K – 12 preparatory School in South Florida. This system
will provide enhanced safety for students, faculty and visitors to the school.
For safety reasons the name of the school is not disclosed.
The
Quest Safe School System is based on technology from Quest’s recently acquired
subsidiary HTS Image Processing and offers real-time, automated vehicle
recognition via machine vision. In a school setting, the system is hosted on a
cloud-based platform integrated with campus intelligence, tracking vehicles,
students, staff, deliveries and campus visitors. The Safe School System has
whitelist and blacklist capabilities to immediately identify vehicles upon
arrival, allowing the admittance of authorized cars or a real-time alarm for
any unauthorized and/or suspicious vehicle.
AI
implementation is fast becoming a necessary security feature, as large tech
firms such as Palo Alto Networks Inc. and Microsoft Corp. are
showing,
which is good news for customers and consumers as these new features allow for
tireless protection in an age of information fatigue.
