## What does HYAS do?

HYAS provides cybersecurity solutions focused on adversary infrastructure intelligence to detect and prevent cyber attacks. The company specializes in monitoring DNS communications to identify when systems are communicating with malicious infrastructure, enabling organizations to detect and block attacks before they cause damage.

HYAS operates on the principle that 90% of cyber attacks use DNS as a communication tool. Rather than focusing solely on inbound threats, HYAS monitors outbound communications to identify connections to known malicious infrastructure. This approach allows organizations to detect compromises and prevent data exfiltration or command-and-control communications even after initial breach attempts.

The company's solutions provide infrastructure intelligence that helps organizations maintain operational and business resilience during security incidents. HYAS serves enterprise clients including Fortune 5 companies and law enforcement agencies worldwide. Their technology is designed to adapt to evolving threats by leveraging deep knowledge of cybercriminal infrastructure patterns.

HYAS emphasizes proactive defense rather than reactive blocking, recognizing that determined attackers will eventually find ways to breach perimeter defenses. Their platform focuses on ensuring that breaches do not result in catastrophic outcomes by providing visibility into malicious communications and enabling rapid response. The company has received recognition from CISA and maintains high efficacy ratings in the industry.
