  • New York, NY (1888PressRelease) March 27, 2021 - Established in 2018, RevBits is a comprehensive cybersecurity company that provides clients with superior protection and service. The company delivers protection against the most sophisticated cyber threats by offering four advanced security tools composed of ten different modules. Technological developments continue at RevBits with the new offering of an integrated platform to manage and control all four solutions in one single sign-on dashboard, RevBits Cyber Intelligence Platform and the coming offering of RevBits ZTN (Zero Trust Networking).

    Below is the conversation that CIO Applications had with Mucteba Celik, the founder and CTO of RevBits.

    How did you recognize the need for a refreshed look at cybersecurity software?
    Having worked in various cybersecurity roles with companies such as BNP Paribas and Protiviti and private consulting work, I had the opportunity to see how different cybersecurity products worked. Most importantly, my prior experience allowed me to see the weakness and gaps that existed not only in individual products but also in solution classes such as endpoint security. When I set out to build the RevBits product suite, my top priorities beyond product effectiveness were to reduce vendor load and eliminate tiered products. For example, when I designed RevBits Endpoint Security , I wanted to ensure that the solution would not fail in detecting a malicious executable under any scenario. To accomplish this goal, I designed the product to conduct a three-phased analysis on all new executables: signature analysis, machine learning, and behavioral analysis.

    Additionally, within our behavioral analysis engine, we designed some unique capabilities that practically ensure a 100 percent detection rate. To provide both vendor reduction and eliminate the tiered product effect, RevBits Endpoint Security delivers all modules immediately upon purchase. Administrators have access to the most robust detection capability in an endpoint product. This equips administrators with an advanced exploit detection engine and the most thorough EDR module on the market, which is actionable through a complete GUI interface or fully actionable through a command-line prompt.

    As a customer, there is no need to upgrade the product to receive higher-level product modules; from purchase, all the product benefits are immediately available.

    In your interactions with CIOs of leading companies, what are the challenges they face now in the Cyber Security space, and how is RevBits effectively addressing these issues?

    When discussing our solutions, the common theme we hear is that the current cybersecurity environment where administrators work has multiple gaps that are being exploited by malicious actors. These gaps do not necessarily mean that other solutions are ineffective; it means that the actor is growing in sophistication to overcome the security arrayed against them. For example, email security is one of the oldest cybersecurity protections an organization can deploy and is in some respects the most significant; however, year after year, research shows that malicious emails remain the primary vector for incidents and breaches. The traditional Secure Email Gateway remains tried-and-true email security, which organizations have added to by supplementing email security with a cloud-based email security analysis solution. Nevertheless, malicious emails are bypassing these solutions and landing in employee inboxes. Studies indicate a bypass or miss-rate of more than 20 percent for sophisticated phishing emails that escape detection by current solutions.

    The email security architecture deployed by organizations has a security gap, which is the unprotected employee inbox. Once a sophisticated phishing email bypasses deployed email security solutions and lands in the employee inbox, an organization can only rely on the employee to detect the malicious email and hope they do not click on links or attachments. We developed RevBits Email Security to protect the exposed employee inbox by creating a dedicated email security solution that protects the inbox and defends against malicious emails that have bypassed other email security products in the network.

    To further understand the need to cover this gap, consider the reason for the high escape rate for malicious emails that land in the employee inbox. All other email security solutions are conducting analysis on a mass volume of emails coming into the solution. The problem with this design and the exploitable vulnerability of these solutions is "time" based. All mass email analysis solutions need to analyze each email quickly to avoid latency and ensure prompt delivery to the inbox. Malicious actors understand the time element in email analysis and exploit it by developing sophisticated phishing emails capable of bypassing email security solutions. When an escaped malicious email lands in the user inbox, the organization relies on the employee to determine if the email is malicious, report the email, and not click on a link or open an attachment.

    With RevBits Email Security, each workstation becomes an analysis engine, and it is only concerned with a single employee inbox. The analysis can take the time necessary to detect the most sophisticated malicious emails and block them from a user's actions.

    Adding RevBits Email Security to the existing email security stack, an organization's email system is fully protected.
