TriagingX Inc was incorporated in 2016 and is headquarterd in Silicon Valley. The company, led by Lixin Lu has developed a solution that automatically analyses the entire endpoint system. The solution consists of three components: TXSANDBOX, TXHUNTER and TXSHIELD. TXSANDBOX analyses files for maximum data protection and confidentiality. It supports on-premise, cloud, and interface deployments for maximum data protection and confidentiality. TXHUNTER is the company’s flagship product that provides detailed forensic investigation and malware detection for the entire endpoint, ensures that every alert is investigated and identifies the security posture in almost real-time. TXSHIELD is designed to provide real-time protection guard for data center servers and endpoint systems against zero-day malware and hacker attacks. TXSHIELD provides adaptive security, automated analysis, advanced protection, is easy to use and reduces the number of false security alerts. The target users for the TriagingX solution are all large enterprises with complex computer networks including all government departments. The technology has already been sold to several big companies such as MAD Security and CISCO Oil and Gas Company. Through this Phase 1 project, TriagingX will adapt the commercial solution to suit AF application by improving accuracy, functionality and detection rates. Our innovation supports the USAF’s Focus Area 4: All-Domain Operations, section 6 – Data security, identity and trusted access. The USAF is a high-priority target for hackers and highly targeted cyber-attacks, aimed at data and intellectual property theft. The protection of military information and network assets is an issue of national security. Through this project, TriagingX presents advanced malware protection tools that decode new attack methods and conduct real-time penetration tests. The solution is perfectly suited to USAF needs for a comprehensive endpoint protection solution. It allows the USAF to be aware of its security posture all times, any time and provides immediate counter measurement for advanced attacks, thereby avoiding catastrophic security breaches. The company has identified the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio, Hanscom Air Force Base in Massachusetts, Moody Air Force Base in Georgia and Tyndall Air Force Base in Florida as potential defense stakehol
