Defendis, a Moroccan cybersecurity startup, has officially launched its innovative AI-powered threat intelligence platform designed to help organizations proactively combat cyberattacks and data leaks.
The platform goes beyond traditional methods by providing organizations with the ability to anticipate cybercriminal activity before an attack occurs. This is achieved through AI that scans for a variety of threats, including leaked credentials and payment card information, vulnerabilities in assets, phishing attempts, fraudulent domains, and online brand impersonation.
