WILMINGTON, Del., May 14, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- HumanFirewalls, a leading cyber security firm, today announced it has joined the "Bit9 + Carbon Black Connect" Alliance Program as an incident response (IR) partner. Bit9® + Carbon Black® is the leader in endpoint threat prevention, detection and response.
As a "Connect" IR partner, HumanFirewalls uses Carbon Black to help its customers remediate cyber attacks and breaches. As the HumanFirewalls team identifies malicious files used to execute an attack, they use Carbon Black to pinpoint each endpoint and server on which malware has landed and reveal the entire "kill chain" of the attack, so responders can quickly see where and how the attack started. This enhanced visibility enables HumanFirewalls to move rapidly to contain attacks and accelerate remediation efforts.
"For a comprehensive security program to flourish, you need the right people, processes and technologies in place," said Roberto Rodriguez, head of HumanFirewalls. "With Carbon Black, our team is better equipped than ever before to protect our customers."
"Putting Carbon Black in the hands of the HumanFirewalls team will enable them to detect and respond to threats and attacks faster and more effectively than with any other IR solution," said Tom Barsi, vice president of business development for Bit9 + Carbon Black. "We're looking forward to seeing the results HumanFirewalls will deliver to its customers."

About HumanFirewalls
HumanFirewalls is an organization that prides itself on offering top-of-the-line security services such as: security awareness, threat intelligence, network security monitoring, compliance management, vulnerability management, integrity controls, and cloud-based Web and e-mail security.
HumanFirewalls understands that small/midsized companies rarely have the in-house expertise, the time, or the budget to implement the right security controls that could protect their organizations from threats that are now capable to avoid detection and bypass traditional security controls. Therefore, we have developed different strategies that will fit their budget, reduce the risk of getting compromised and highlight their company's ROI.
We firmly believe that cyber security must be addressed proactively with next-generation continuous endpoint monitoring in order to identify, respond, contain and recover rapidly from advanced attacks. In addition, we agree that with the implementation of the proper cyber security education and high level of awareness, we can establish a powerful form of defense against advanced cyber attacks at the primary level.
