What is Threat Detection?

Threat detection is the process of identifying suspicious, malicious or abnormal activity that could put your device, data, identity or accounts at risk. A modern threat detection system can combine security checks, behavioral signals, device information and threat intelligence to identify risks that may not be obvious to the user.

CYBX brings threat detection into a simple mobile experience. Instead of expecting you to understand complex cybersecurity alerts, CYBX helps surface relevant risks and tells you what they mean and what you can do next.
