Cyber Maryland is always a superb event! I am looking forward to next Cyber Maryland in 2017. It was great to see so many friends, superb presentations, and cutting-edge technologies.
Maryland is recognized as a cybersecurity leader – nationally and internationally. The state has developed cybersecurity experts, education and training programs, technology, products, systems and infrastructure. With over 10 million cyber hacks a day resulting in an annual worldwide cost of over $100 billion, the United States is at risk.
Last year alone, tens of millions of Americans had their identities and their bank accounts threatened or compromised. Ensuring that our nation has the workforce, technology and resources to protect our citizens, businesses, infrastructure, intellectual property and more is of paramount importance. Maryland continues to be a leader on this front.

CYBERBIT – Defeating the Unknown
The cyber security market has been going through tremendous changes recently. Exponential increase in the number of attacks and their severity has caused a drastic decrease in the relevance and effectiveness of current generation security tools which are, by nature – signature based.
CYBERBIT confronts these challenges by protecting high risk, high value enterprises, critical infrastructures and governments against these advanced, signature-less threats.
We in CYBERBIT understand that in order to detect and respond fast and efficiently to advanced threats organizational security has to go through major changes. Detection and response cycles must become optimal and short, leveraging past knowledge and experience, automating processes and capabilities, and allowing the organization to be agile, alert and prompt.
