Accenture has added to its managed security offerings with the release of the Accenture Cyber Intelligence Platform.

The platform marries advances in chip processor technology with artificial intelligence, machine learning and streaming analytics to help organisations identify network-born cyberthreats in near-real time. The platform also examines network flows and DNS data streamed from existing network components to learn, determine and report ranked suspicious behaviours attributable to malicious cyber attack techniques.

Underpinned by Accenture’s as-a-service capabilities and the Accenture Cloud Platform, the product can typically be implemented within one week. Once enabled, it automatically begins to learn ‘what’s normal’ and then continuously improves. Organisations can scale the service as needed while also benefiting from the company’s managed security service professionals, who not only run the platform but also are available to analyse, interpret and respond to security alerts.

The product features a customised version of Open Network Insight, an open-source solution that delivers visibility into operational and security threats facing dynamic data centres, and Cloudera’s enterprise data hub.
