Infocyte Launches First Agentless Cloud Workload Protection Platform, Strengthens Check Point Software’s Threat Detection and Incident Response Capabilities in Dynamic AWS Environments

Infocyte announced the availability of Infocyte HUNT Cloud for Amazon Web Services (AWS) — the first solution combining comprehensive detection and IR for high-growth cloud environments, unlike traditional endpoint protection platforms (EPPs) which don’t address cloud workloads. Infocyte HUNT Cloud for AWS features agentless deployment through AWS APIs and artificial intelligence (AI) to quickly identify, categorize and respond to persistent, hidden and other advanced threats and vulnerabilities. Leveraging AWS CloudTrail, Activity Trace™ provides immediate insight into the root cause of threats at the host and cloud management layers, enabling instantaneous IR and remediation. Availability of Infocyte HUNT Cloud on the leading cloud services platforms begins with AWS and will expand to Microsoft Azure and Google Cloud Platform (GCP) later this year.
