Mimic

Mimic is a completely new technology that defends enterprises against ransomware-based cyber extortion – zeroing in on ransomware with early detection, deflection of corruption attempts, and swift, automated recovery, no ransom necessary. Cyber extortion is the most destructive and fastest-growing breed of cybercrime, demanding fundamentally new technical approaches to combat it. Mimic brings together a highly specialized team of security industry veterans from Citibank, Walmart, Vodafone, Raytheon, F5, and the U.S. Department of Defense as well as funding from leading VCs to solve one of the industry's most complex challenges.
