Kroll joins “Bit9 + Carbon Black Connect” Alliance Program

Kroll uses Carbon Black to rapidly detect and respond to attacks and accelerate remediation efforts for enterprise customers.

Bit9® + Carbon Black® says that Kroll, the global leader in risk mitigation and response solutions, has joined the “Bit9 + Carbon Black Connect” Alliance Program as an incident response partner.


As a “Connect” IR partner, Kroll uses the Carbon Black solution to help enterprise customers remediate cyber attacks and breaches. As the Kroll team identifies malicious files used to execute an attack, Kroll uses Carbon Black to pinpoint each endpoint and server on which malware has landed and reveal the entire “kill chain” of the attack, so responders can quickly see where and how the attack started. This enhanced visibility enables Kroll to move rapidly to contain attacks and accelerate remediation efforts.


“Equipping our expert teams with Carbon Black streamlines the response and recovery process more than ever before,” said Timothy P. Ryan, Kroll’s managing director and head of the cyber investigations practice. “By joining this program, we are combining the best people and best technology on the market to battle against advanced attacks and targeted malware.”


Kroll is recognised as an industry leader for its seamless end-to-end capabilities, extending from proactive assessment and intrusion testing to data breach notification and identity theft monitoring. With its incident response services, Kroll leverages a global network of certified security and forensic experts to respond quickly to security incidents, whether the incident is the result of a malicious attack or internal security issues. Able to be onsite within hours, Kroll’s response team quickly helps an organisation contain a breach and determine the next steps.


“Incident response is no longer a ’post-mortem’ process of determining and trying to remediate the damage done by a cyber attack after it occurs,” said Tom Barsi, vice president of business development for Bit9 + Carbon Black. “Today, incident response is a continuous process of proactively preparing for a breach by detecting, responding to and remediating threats—as they happen—before major damage is done. The combination of Kroll’s in-depth investigative and incident response experience with Carbon Black’s innovative ability to detect and respond to threats in real time will provide companies with a unique defense against cyber attacks.”
