Meet Resistine 

Let's make the world safer and more free by revolutionizing the availability of Enterprise-level Cyber-Security for everyone.

Resistine's founder Petr began his career as a researcher in the faculty where Large Language Models (LLMs) first came to life. During this time, he excelled in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and got top honors in multiple NIST Challenges. His last venture, GreyCortex, addressed Network Traffic Analysis to enhance network visibility for cyber-security professionals, but the amount of information inadvertently overwhelmed the cyber-analysts. It was time to change the way companies access cybersecurity solutions.

Petr spent time facing attacks from sophisticated hackers, partly due to his involvement in NATO CCDCOE Exercises, and was inspired by his award-winning technology achievements at NVIDIA and AWS AI Challenges, to initiate "Project Resistine."

This newest venture aims to refine the analysis of cyber threats and corresponding actions into an easy to understand Assistant, helping not only cyber-security professionals effectively identify and address cyber threats, but also companies without sophisticated in-house cyber resources to leverage this functionality to protect their information and IT infrastructure.

It is not common at all that a company’s goals are coded as an EU directive, but the NIS2 (Network and Information Security) EU Directive says it surprisingly clearly:

“(89) Essential and important entities should adopt a wide range of basic cyber hygiene practices, such as zero-trust principles, software updates, device configuration, network segmentation, identity and access management or user awareness, organise training for their staff and raise awareness concerning cyber threats, phishing or social engineering techniques. Furthermore, those entities should evaluate their own cybersecurity capabilities and, where appropriate, pursue the integration of cybersecurity enhancing technologies, such as artificial intelligence or machine-learning systems to enhance their capabilities and the security of network and information systems.”

The NIS2 Directive not only promotes artificial intelligence (in the article 51 and 89 above), but it also promotes Open-Source technology as the way to more transparent security solutions:

“(52) ... Member States should therefore be able to promote the use of open-source software and open standards by pursuing policies relating to the use of open data and open-source as part of security through transparency. Policies promoting the introduction and sustainable use of open-source cybersecurity tools are of particular importance for small and medium-sized enterprises facing significant costs for implementation, which could be minimised by reducing the need for specific applications or tools.”

Reading the NIS2 Directive for the first time was a welcoming validation of the concept for Resistine, this is exactly what we do, why and how we do it.
