xorlab is a Swiss cybersecurity company providing specialized, machine-intelligent defense against highly engineered, sophisticated and targeted email attacks. Founded in 2015 and spun out of ETH’s Laboratory of Software Technology, xorlab has grown to a team of 14 dedicated security professionals and passionate software engineers. The company, with its ActiveGuard Defense Platform, now already protects more than 50k mailboxes from leading financial service providers, hospitals and high-tech industrial companies in Germany and Switzerland, and processes more than 1.5 million emails per day.
xorlab empowers its customers to detect and stop emerging attacks at first sight, resulting in a smaller risk of breach, fewer incidents and lower operating cost overall. Integrated with Microsoft 365 Exchange Online (using Exchange connectors), ActiveGuard’s contextual threat detection engine continuously monitors incoming and outgoing email traffic correlating hundreds of signals from every email in real-time. Complemented with a cutting-edge sandbox environment for dynamic file analysis, the platform detects and stops targeted spear-phishing and evasive zero-day and exploit attacks at first sight.
