2 Nyotron Overview Threat-Agnostic Defense tm is the New Security Paradigm Nyotron is bringing innovation to cybersecurity with a Threat-Agnostic Defense approach to endpoint security products and services. Unlike all other approaches, our patented technology does not rely on the type of threat or the attack vector or technique, allowing us to provide ultimate protection to enterprises by stopping the damage that threats attempt to execute. What makes us different All other security technologies attempt to stop entry into the enterprise, whether at the perimeter or the endpoint, acting like gates that can be bypassed. Nyotron has turned the security paradigm upside down by focusing on the damage stage of the attack. We assume that targeted and unknown threats may bypass your security technologies. Our engine has simply mapped all of the right ways to do things on a computer, so when an attack attempts to delete, exfiltrate or encrypt files, we know the actions aren t legitimate, so we simply stop the damage action from executing. Introducing PARANOID Our flagship product is PARANOID, which consists of an agent at the endpoint and the PARANOID Management Console. It can be deployed apparent or transparent to the user depending upon security policy and can operate in detect or prevent mode to thwart the execution phase of an attack and prevent actual damage. How we help your security team For enterprises that employ cyber security experts or run a Security Operations Center, our Nyotron War Room product provides you unlimited real-time visibility into your endpoints security status. Leveraging a sophisticated 3D presentation, the Nyotron War Room allows you to view your endpoints according to your desired classifications by geo location, by network grouping, etc. Many organizations are lacking cyber security expert people and skills. For these enterprises, Nyotron Managed Defense Services provides the expert resources that are required for 24/7 security defense and the intelligence necessary to protect your data, infrastructure and assets. About Us Founded in Israel in 2012, Nyotron has corporate headquarters in Silicon Valley, California. The product, research and development teams are based in Herzliya, Israel.

3 FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 1. What is the problem that Nyotron solves? The key security issue that enterprises face today is the issue of protecting their critical data from new and unknown targeted attacks. Vendors have been addressing parts of this huge issue for decades, and until Nyotron, have not achieved ultimate protection from all threats across the board. There are many good companies who do a good job at defending against SPECIFIC threats, but no one except Nyotron can protect against ALL threats using ALL techniques. 2. What does Threat-Agnostic Defense mean? It means that our approach doesn t rely on the type of threat (ransomware, exploits, malware, file-less attacks, etc.) or the attack vector (web, , bad USB, etc.) or the technique used. This approach allows us to protect your data from threats that haven t even been invented yet unknown and future threats. 3. Why do organizations need Threat-Agnostic Defense? Studies show that organizations typically have layers of security on their endpoints to attempt to protect their data. Having multiple point product technologies are a huge cost to an organization people, time and overall cost of ownership. Rather than this approach, we suggest leveraging technology that provides the best security from threats across the board, thus saving resources while providing better security while improving cost of ownership. 4. What about Next-Generation Anti-Virus? Signature-based anti-virus leverages decades-old technology to identify a threat from a signature of a known attack. Next-Generation Anti-Virus vendors attempt the exact same approach to security by using more modern technology (machine learning, mathematical algorithms, artificial intelligence, etc.), but the approach is still flawed they attempt to guess if a file is a threat based upon a prediction-model of known threats. Rather than predictive analytics (guessing), Nyotron is deterministic (knowing). 5. Other vendors say they address unknown attacks. How is Nyotron different? Many security companies are threat hunters - we don t need to chase the threats to focus on preventing damage no matter how the attack manifested. In fact, they tout how many hundreds of employees they have researching threats. At Nyotron, we will never have a large threat hunting department because we don't have to. We have a small group of expert hackers who will keep up with new approaches, but never more than that. We protect from within the operating system at the kernel level and ignore threat vectors, infection techniques, spread mechanisms. We use no predictive analytics: no machine learning, no behavioral analysis, no file scanning, no big data analytics, no artificial intelligence. Nor do we use sandboxes or container based scanning engines because all of those are still predictive mechanisms that depend on seeing some sign, some bread crumb from past activity to guess if a threat is bad or good. They must know what bad looks like to guess whether something is good or bad. They are comparative and predictive. We are not. We are deterministic.
