BlackFog

BlackFog provides anti data exfiltration (ADX) technology designed to prevent unauthorized data transfers from endpoints and networks. Rather than focusing solely on perimeter defense or intrusion detection, the company's approach centers on stopping data from leaving an organization's devices or network, which it identifies as the critical stage of ransomware and other cyberattacks. The company's product suite includes several offerings: ADX Vision, which detects Shadow AI usage and enforces governance across endpoints and applications; ADX Protect, an enterprise-level exfiltration protection product using behavioral profiling and AI-driven analysis; ADX Agility, built for managed security service providers (MSSPs) operating in multi-tenanted environments; and ADX Instinct, a virtual CISO service offering strategic guidance, risk management, and compliance support. BlackFog also offers a lightweight privacy and ransomware protection product aimed at individual consumers. BlackFog's technology uses AI-based behavioral analysis intended to detect both known and previously unseen (zero-day) threats, including AI-based attacks. The company targets enterprise customers, MSSPs, and individual users, and publishes research including quarterly ransomware trend reports and statistics on global ransomware and data exfiltration activity. BlackFog operates as a hybrid business, combining software products (the ADX suite and consumer protection tools) with advisory services (the vCISO offering).
