"L7 Defense Luxembourg SARL is a commercial company that is registered in Luxemburg with the number B. 216222, the company was founded on July 2017 to promote L7 Defense Ammune technology across all EU and become the European HQ.
L7 Defense Luxembourg SARL approached HO2020 SME phase1 at 2018 in order to evaluate the demand for a new web security technology that can face the emerging AI (Artificial intelligence) based attacks, during the project we were brainstorming on the strategy and planning the EU market penetration for the upcoming years. After meeting more than 35 enterprise companies we were able to conclude: the customers were lacking of automation tools that impacts their TCO (total cost of ownership) for existing products and demand many hours of human intervention to keep updating and configuring the systems this impacts dramatically the security expenses per organization. L7 Defense approach of Unsupervised ML capabilities that is based on the Immune system to protect fully autonomously on the online assets was welcomed in two hands both , therefore we partnered with 3 local channels in EU to execute the business plan. We are assure that it's the right time to grow L7 Defense market share in EU and make the companies secured again. L7 Defense received the award recognition from Frost & Sullivan the best practice anti DDoS 2018 and this supports the credibility by customer's decision makers. We are fully committed to the success in the EU market efforts.
The Rising Threat of Automated AI Attacks According to security industry specialists,1 an overwhelming number of cyber attacks are automated, while the human hacker going after an individual target is far rarer. The preferred approach by malicious actors is to automate as much of the attack as possible with everything from scripted Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks to ransomware, criminal chatbots, and so on. Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning techniques are being used to produce complex and highly targeted scripts at a rate and level of sophistication far beyond any individual human hacker, adding additional layers of sophistication to the rapidly growing IoT- botnets2 being used to generate such attacks.
The AI Defense Requirements The adoption of AI and ML techniques to defend against these threats sets the stage for 2018 to be the first year where we will see ""AI versus AI"" in a cybersecurity contexts. For a defending AI/ML system to be truly valuable and effective, it should not require extensive upfront training or rules development and should eliminate the need for any human intervention in the mitigation process. At the same time, an effective system must hold the rate of False Positives near zero to allow the optimal flow of desired traffic.
