Unveillance has developed the first software-as-a-service (SaaS) botnet intelligence platform. Leveraging completely passive monitoring, without the use of any on premises hardware, software or agent install, Unveillance’s platform is able to assess whether an organization, country and/or government’s network is actively compromised by malware and thus participating in a botnet infrastructure at a 100% zero false positive rate. The intelligence platform is able to provide alerting and metrics on severity, frequency and scope of infection as well as display successful remediation efforts.

Flooved is the world’s first online-only textbook platform providing university students with access to their entire academic content for a monthly subscription.
