Project description
Sanitizing every file to prevent malware infections
Cyber-attacks are one of the top risks for most of the companies and organizations today, regardless of their size. SMEs (small-medium enterprises) are even more vulnerable as they lack the knowledge, tools and expertise when it comes to cybersecurity. Hackers are also using novel approaches today – from encrypted and distributed malware attacks to zero-day attacks that are delivered via files – from simple emails or removable media and web download. As new attacks and malware created daily, the risk of getting hacked by unknown malware in file-based attack becomes a real threat. Odix 2.0 introduce a new way for preventing malware infiltrate the organization’s network. Instead of trying to detect the undetectable, this Software as a Service (SaaS) solution protects against potentially harmful content by sanitizing every file with its unique, patented malware prevention technology.
Objective
Incoming files present one of the most serious threats to every corporate network. Cyber attackers have the knowledge and resources to implement highly sophisticated attacks using various methods such as encrypted and distributed malware attacks, zero-day attacks and more. These are delivered via files which are introduced into the target network by various channels, including email, removable media, and web download. Malware attacks can create serious damage to the organization but current available defensive measures fail to provide any protection against such attack. The SMEs, accounting for over 95% of firms, require and demand special response to the vulnerability they have against cyberattacks.
Yet, none of the existing solutions in the market, even less those based on military technology, is giving answer to them. ODIX 2.0 is the next generation of malware protection that is revolutionizing the way organizations protect their company from known and unknown threats. While other solutions focus on analysing user’s behaviour and statistical data to try and DETECT the undetectable, our game changing approach is to proactively PROTECT, sanitizing every file (keeping their full functionality) with our unique anti malware technology.
After carrying out a feasibility study considering technical, practical, and financial aspects, we have successfully confirmed
ODIX’s viability as a significant business opportunity.
Through SMEi-Phase 2 we plan to 1) Enrich our solution with innovative features and functionalities, evolving ODIX-2.0 from
TRL6 To TRL9; 2) pave the way towards its successful international market exploitation; 3) develop an operational strategy
to grow our company based on the SME market, the power to easily and cost-effectively protect their files. Thus, in the next
two years, ODI aims to accelerate its global rollout by expanding engagements with existing clients, and gaining new
customers in key areas in Europe, US and Asia.
