by Cybereason Inc.
Cybereason is a top endpoint detection tool with advanced threat hunting — its operation-centric MalOp (Malicious Operation) engine automatically correlates individual threat signals into complete attack stories, enabling hunt teams to investigate entire adversary operations rather than chasing isolated alerts across thousands of endpoints.
