ZeroFox acquires Vigilant to enhance dark web intelligence capability
By MYBRANDBOOK
Cybersecurity firm ZeroFOX Inc. has acquired “dark web” intelligence research firm Vigilante ATI Inc. for an undisclosed amount. As part of the deal, Vigilante’s team will join ZeroFox, integrating its capabilities into the company’s platform for detecting threats on social media and on digital channels.
Founded in 2003, Vigilante offers business-focused security monitoring solutions through a combination of consulting, managed services and threat intelligence.
ZeroFOX will add Vigilante’s global team of analysts to enable access to unique data sets and exotic threat research that it claims is “unattainable by any other provider.
Vigilante co-founder Mike Kirschner said, “The combination of our otherwise inaccessible datasets, our team of researchers and operatives, along with ZeroFox’s scale and artificial intelligence, now powers the industry’s only truly complete dark web intelligence service.”
The company is best known as an expert in threat intelligence on the dark web. It also supports threat hunting and cyber persona cultivation in the underground economy.
Commenting on the deal ZeroFox CEO James C. Foster said, “The dark web and criminal underground are critical requirements of modern threat intelligence programs. Our customers need a clear view of the underground economy, how bots may be attacking them or if their credentials, credit cards, personally identifiable information and other information could be traded there, as well as understanding emerging tactics, exploits and vulnerabilities.”
Vigilant provides services for various companies across a diverse array of industries, including many of the Fortune 50.
