The lack of specific, verifiable evidence and realistic business metrics places the project in the minimal traction category.

Description
We Deliver Intelligence-Driven Threat Management! Today’s businesses are at a cross roads. We’re in the era of the Dark Web and sophisticated cyber attacks that can evade network defenses, adapt and even disguise their behavior as normal activity. Adversaries can also ‘play dead’ for months to run sustained, long-term operational efforts against targets. The choice is clear. It’s either proactively hunt and destroy cyber attacks or fall prey to them. M4 Award Winning Cyber Threat Hunting Platform At Mantix4, we turn the hunted into the hunter. Mantix4’s M4 Cyber Threat Hunting Platform accelerates the hunt and actively defends against cyber threats. The one-of- a-kind platform meshes critical human intuition and analysis with advanced machine learning to proactively and persistently analyze, hunt, disrupt and neutralize the most dangerous cyber threats.
