Silent Push Launches Chrome Extension That Preemptively Stop Cyberattacks

Silent Push, a leading preemptive cybersecurity intelligence company, has announced the launch of its new Google Chrome Extension, providing immediate access to information about indicators discovered through a user’s browser and new controls to action on them.

Ken Bagnall, CEO at and Co-Founder of Silent Push, said: “We are committed to providing our customers with the solutions and resources they need to protect themselves from an attack and maintain business resilience”

Silent Push Pushes for Enhanced Cyber Defence

As part of the company’s continuing efforts to level up security teams’ cyber defences, Silent Push has introduced new integration partner Filigran, the developer of OpenCTI. The firm’s partnerships, including with ThreatConnect, continue to improve the customer experience and enhance company-wide security stacks with enriched data from the Silent Push platform.

“The Silent Push Chrome Extension makes it a lot easier to access actionable, and high-quality threat intelligence. It’s easy to use and improves our ability to detect and respond to threats including quick pivots into the Silent Push platform for a deep dive into adversary infrastructure,” noted Simone Filiaggi, Sr. Threat Intelligence Analyst at Box.

“Our Chrome Extension is bidirectional and makes it easier and faster to action. It acts as an integration into any of your SaaS platforms. By working directly in your browser through our extension, security teams now have the power to pivot control anywhere on the Internet,” Bagnall added. “Through our integration partnerships and upcoming Abuse Reporting service, we are strengthening our capabilities and commitment so that security teams have the resources they need to identify adversary infrastructure before an attack is launched.”

Providing a Modern Approach to Cybersecurity

Traditional IOC-based security models are such a reactive approach that limit security teams from proactively stopping an attack that is yet to launch. Attackers are faster, more automated and increasingly leverage modern techniques to evade detection. A more modern approach is needed.

Indicators of Future Attack (IOFA)™—only available from Silent Push—replace the traditional model providing an cyber early warning system. And, now with its Chrome Extension, Silent Push empowers Incident Response, Threat Intelligence and SOC teams to swiftly act and protect their organization with preemptive technology accessible with a simple click.

Jan Johansen, SVP Global Alliances, Filigran, the Developer of OpenCTI, added: “As a new integration partner, our joint customers will benefit from our better together offering of leading threat intelligence from Silent Push leveraged through our OpenCTI platform featuring comprehensive visualisations and analytic tools. This is the best of both worlds to fully enable security teams to protect their organisation.”

Andrew Pendargast, Chief Product Officer at ThreatConnect, commented: “Our longstanding integration partnership with Silent Push enables our joint customers to further their journey towards a fully threat and risk-informed cyber defence. The new Chrome Extension, which offers defenders a far faster time to detect emerging threats, is a great example of the innovation the industry has come to expect from Silent Push.”

Currently, the new Chrome Extension is available to enterprise customers only and downloaded here within the Chrome Web Store.
