About Index Engines
Founded in 2003, Index Engines specializes in cyber resilience, helping organizations maintain trusted, recoverable data in the face of evolving cyber threats. Its flagship solution, CyberSense, uses patented AI to detect ransomware-induced corruption with a 99.99% detection SLA, enabling organizations to validate data integrity, identify clean recovery points, and restore operations with confidence.
CyberSense advances cyber resilience by addressing a critical challenge in ransomware recovery: determining whether data can actually be trusted. While traditional security tools often rely on encryption signatures, file extensions, or other visible indicators of compromise, CyberSense uses patented AI and deep content analysis to detect corruption that may otherwise go unnoticed.
Built on Index Engines’ petabyte-class indexing technology, CyberSense examines how data changes at the byte level rather than relying solely on surface-level indicators. This approach identifies sophisticated techniques such as partial encryption, low-entropy corruption, and file structure manipulation and had had a major impact on the cybersecurity industry in how it addresses and keeps updated on ransomware in the wild.
At Index Engines, we study how ransomware evolves today, so CyberSense is ready for how it attacks tomorrow. The CyberSense Research Lab detonates real ransomware, studies how it corrupts data, and turns emerging behaviors into stronger detection models by incorporating its findings into its detection models. The Lab has analyzed more than 8,500 ransomware variants, supporting the previously mentioned 99.99% detection SLA validated by Enterprise Strategy Group, now Omdia.
By combining deep data analysis with ongoing ransomware research, CyberSense moves beyond identifying threats to validating data integrity, pinpointing clean recovery points, and helping organizations restore operations with confidence.
Additional CyberSense proof points include:
- Global adoption: CyberSense protects more than 1,600 customers across 50 industries, demonstrating demand for trusted data integrity and cyber resilience capabilities.
- Proven recovery outcomes: Customers can recover up to 80% faster with up to 75% less downtime, according to Forrester’s 2023 findings.
Validated accuracy: CyberSense’s 99.99% ransomware corruption detection SLA was validated against 125,000 real-world samples- and audited by Enterprise Strategy Group, now Omdia. - Technology partnerships: Strategic partnerships with Dell Technologies, IBM, Hitachi Vantara, and Infinidat support CyberSense’s integration into enterprise cyber resilience infrastructure.
- Customer validation: CyberSense holds a 4.9-star rating on Gartner Peer Insights, reflecting customer and partner confidence in its capabilities.
