HERZLIYA, Israel,
Jan. 7,
2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BUFFERZONE®, a provider
of next-generation endpoint security solutions that protect
endpoints from advanced cyber threats, and Intel Corp. (NASDAQ:
INTC) industry-leading CPU AI inference manufacturer today
announced their continued partnership in AI PC innovation.
BUFFERZONE® releases two novel AI solutions as part of their Safe
Workspace® solution suite powered by NoCloud™ AI technology. Both
technologies operate on Intel® Core™ Ultra processors, ensuring
sensitive data remains local and never sent to the cloud.
The first solution, SafeBridge® AI, is an innovative zero-trust
Content Disarm and Reconstruction (CDR) solution that now
incorporates Large Language Model (LLM) to identify and explain
potential attack vectors in files downloaded from web browsing,
email, or removable media. The second solution, Safe Data, is a
sophisticated AI-powered file vault that protects users from
Ransomware and other internal threats. It actively scans files for
business and legal confidential information and secures them in a
virtual vault. BUFFERZONE® Protection By Containment™ technology
isolates external threats directly on the host, including those
from removable media, web browsing, and email links or attachments.
Files can be securely accessed within the virtual containment. For
transferring files from the untrusted containment to the
non-isolated environment, BUFFERZONE® employs SafeBridge®, a
zero-trust file handle that utilizes an on-host CDR. This process
sanitizes active or suspicious content within files, delivering a
reconstructed and secure file version.
In cases where certain active components may pose risks but are
also necessary, BUFFERZONE® provides a detailed explanation of
potential threats within the file. This empowers users to
understand hidden dangers and take informed security actions.
When files exit an isolated environment, they can become
susceptible to internal threats like ransomware. The Safe Data
solution enhances security by actively scans data at rest for
sensitive information. The solution automatically secures the
files within a virtual vault upon detecting sensitive data. These
files cannot be moved, copied, deleted, or accessed without the
owner's authentication, ensuring that sensitive data remains fully
protected. Running large language models (LLMs) directly on host
devices can be slow and resource intensive. To overcome this
challenge, BUFFERZONE® has partnered with Intel® to harness the
computational power of Intel's AI PC processors. The Intel® Core™
Ultra processor integrates CPU, GPU, and NPU into a unified
package, delivering a substantial boost in AI performance on
endpoint devices.
The innovative NoCloud™ approach delivers significant
advantages: it eliminates LLM operational costs entirely compared
to cloud-based solutions, while addressing critical customer
concerns around security and privacy. Furthermore, tests on the
Integrated GPU revealed substantial improvements in inference
speed, achieving a reduction of over 60% compared to CPU-based
inference.
"Our close partnership with Intel has greatly advanced our
NoCloud™ AI security capabilities, enabling complex LLM and VLM
operations to run directly on the endpoint with exceptional speed.
The launch of SafeBridge® AI and Safe Data marks a major leap in
endpoint security, delivering innovative anti-ransomware solutions
to our customers. NoCloud™ is transforming cybersecurity by
removing the need to upload sensitive data to the cloud for
analysis. By running advanced AI directly on the host, we ensure
greater privacy, robust security, and reduced latency – addressing
critical concerns about the confidentiality of corporate and
employee data," said Israel Levy,
CEO of BUFFERZONE. "With our NoCloud™ AI technologies, we ensure
sensitive information remains secure on-premises, preserving data
privacy while significantly reducing VLM/LLM operational costs.
Integrating Intel's Core™ Ultra processor technology is a major
step forward in our mission to enhance cybersecurity. The shift
from cloud-based solutions to NoCloud™ began a year ago with our AI
anti-phishing solution, which received excellent feedback and has
now expanded to include innovative anti-ransomware and data at rest
security."
"Intel commends Bufferzone for its innovative AI-driven security
solutions and their collaborative work with our teams to enable two
new features that run on Intel AI PCs. Bufferzone's NoCloud™
approach that runs AI entirely on Intel GPU and NPU accelerators,
offers a compelling alternative to traditional detection-based
security, providing enterprises with enhanced proactive protection
while preserving user privacy," said Carla Rodríguez, Vice
President and General Manager of Client Software Enabling at
Intel.
