Comodo and CybrHawk Announce Technology Partnership – CybrHawk Integrates Comodo’s OpenEDR Into XDR Solution Set

Clifton, NJ – December 15, 2020 – Comodo, the world’s leader of next-generation cybersecurity announced a technology partnership with CybrHawk, which operates the world’s most advanced enterprise cybersecurity threat intelligence tools.

CybrHawk, a provider of XDR solution sets, recently integrated Comodo OpenEDR into its SIEM platform. “Comodo’s OpenEDR is a ‘gamechanger’ for the Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) market because it’s just as capable as competing products like Crowdstrike’s, but open source and free,” said Jacob Thankachen, CEO & Co-founder at CybrHawk. He continued, “Plus, its modular approach gives customers the flexibility of replacing traditional antivirus for endpoints.”

Comodo’s OpenEDR is the world’s most sophisticated and effective endpoint detection and response (EDR) available as open-source. It allows you to analyze what’s happening across your entire environment at a base-security-event level. OpenEDR has full-blown EDR capability and comes with seven days of log retention for free with the purchase of AEP.

Jacob continued, “Comodo’s OpenEDR will be integrated with our ‘pluggable’ agent. The OpenEDR output will be shipped to CybrHawk XDR platform and will be used to monitor and alert on the activities. Based on the testing we’ve done, OpenEDR has accurate detection, with a low number of events, and is very lightweight. It has detected activities from the Atomic Red Team scripts and known viruses and the rate is 95%, same as Crowdstrike.”

Comodo’s EDR provides continuous real-time visibility of endpoints with detection and response. With the Open Source EDR product, an organization’s IT team can identify attacks with the accurate root-cause analysis for effective remediation intelligence. It is a sophisticated endpoint agent that uses adaptive event modeling and allows logs to be sent to an elastic database and connect to systems like Kibana for visualization and reporting. In addition, a set of Indicators of compromise (IoCs) will be available and open for the community to create and deploy their own IoCs.  An extensive rule engine will also be provided for collection of endpoint events, enrichment, and detection.

Alan Knepfer, President and Chief Revenue Officer at Comodo commented, “We are offering our EDR as open source because we feel strongly that as cyber-threats increase, every company should have access to this capability regardless of budget or ability to purchase it.” He continued, “We are putting an end to charging for multiple layers of security by open sourcing the world’s most sophisticated EDR.”
