Cybersecurity Awareness Month Defenders for Children Fundraiser
At CyberMaxx, we believe it is our duty to defend against those committed to wide-scale societal disruption through cyber attacks. We embrace the cyber badge-of-honor that we carry and proudly stand shoulder to shoulder with all other industry cyber-defenders in this noble cause.
In this spirit, we have partnered with Defenders for Children, a non-profit organization dedicated to protecting and advocating for the rights and welfare of children. They work tirelessly to raise awareness about issues such as child abuse, exploitation, and trafficking, specifically through the training and deployment of electronic detection K-9s (dogs) for law enforcement. You can learn more about the electronic detection K-9s here: https://www.defendersforchildren.org/ed-k-9s
We have a shared mission of protecting good people from bad actors and it's our honor to partner with Defenders for Children and raise funds for their worthy cause.

More About the CyberMaxx Threat Hunt
CyberMaxx’s Threat Hunting service is an effective way for organizations to detect and respond to security threats more quickly and effectively.
Our threat hunters scout for signs of unknown compromises that have evaded an organization’s security controls using various technologies and tactics, such as data analysis, machine learning algorithms, and manual checking. By analyzing the patterns generated through these measures, threat hunters can tell when malicious activity is likely.
Common activities performed during threat hunts include:
- Collaborating with the CyberMaxx threat intelligence and research team to prioritize and guide hunts based on threat intelligence
- Performing research to develop new hunt strategies and plans
- Conducting manual investigations of suspicious activity found during hunting
- Collaborating with other security teams to respond to and remediate security threats discovered during hunting
- Engaging with the SOC on mitigating response actions when the customer also subscribed to MaxxMDR
