Custocy partners with Enea for AI-based network threat detection and response

Custocy is set to enhance its AI-powered network detection and response (NDR) platform by integrating Enea Qosmos' deep packet inspection (DPI) and intrusion detection (IDS) software libraries. This collaboration aims to boost the platform's accuracy, performance, and product differentiation through enhanced traffic visibility and efficient data inspection.

Custocy, known for its innovative use of layered, multi-temporal AI in cybersecurity, is distinguished by its ability to detect both immediate threats and ongoing attacks. This approach simplifies the work of security analysts by offering attack path visualisation, prioritisation, workflow support, and a significant reduction in false positives. With the integration of Enea’s software, Custocy gains access to detailed traffic data, enabling them to accelerate their innovation and meet the high-performance demands of modern cybersecurity.

The Enea Qosmos ixEngine, a leading DPI engine in the cybersecurity industry, is recognised for its extensive protocol recognition and metadata delivery, which are critical for AI-driven advancements like those at Custocy. Additionally, Enea’s Threat Detection SDK optimises product performance by eliminating redundant packet processing, thereby improving resource efficiency and reducing overheads. This integration allows Custocy to expand traffic insights and speed up threat detection, positioning the company to address the growing demand for high-performing NDR solutions.

As cyber threats evolve, particularly with the use of AI by threat actors, NDR solutions like Custocy’s are crucial for identifying unknown and advanced persistent threats (APTs). Custocy’s AI-driven technology has already garnered several accolades, including the "Product of the Year" award at Cyber Show Paris, underscoring its capability to meet the challenges faced by both private and public sector organisations.

Jean-Pierre Coury, SVP Embedded Security Business Group, applauds Custocy’s vision and achievements: “Custocy has developed their solution from the ground up to exploit the unique potential of AI to enhance advanced threat detection and security operations. AI is truly woven into their DNA, and I look forward to the additional value they will deliver to their customers as they leverage the enhanced data foundation delivered by Enea software to support their continuous AI innovation.”

Custocy CEO, Sebastien Sivignon, states: “We are thrilled to join forces with Enea to offer our customers the highest level of network intrusion detection. The Enea Qosmos ixEngine is the industry gold standard for network traffic data. It offers a level of accuracy and depth conventional DPI and packet sniffing tools cannot match. Having such a rich source of clean, well-structured, ready-to-use data will enable us to dramatically improve our performance, work more efficiently and devote maximum time to AI model innovation.”
