SESAME IT BECOMES JIZÔ AI AND PLACES ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE AT THE HEART OF ORGANIZATIONS' DIGITAL PROTECTION

Paris, January 31, 2025 — Sesame it, a European leader in cyber defense, is officially becoming Jizô AI. This marks a crucial step in the company’s evolution and illustrates its commitment to leveraging artificial intelligence to enhance cybersecurity for organizations. This commitment also materializes with the launch of Jizô AI, its new eponymous solution.

A NAME CHANGE REFLECTING TECHNOLOGICAL EVOLUTION

This rebranding aligns with the company’s long-term vision to redefine the standards of cybersecurity. By highlighting artificial intelligence, Jizô AI positions itself as a key player in preemptive threat detection, harnessing this technology's potential alongside its expertise.

“This new name, more international, will resonate with a global audience and support our strategy to enter new markets,” Audrey Amédro adds.

Simultaneously, this identity change comes with the launch of a new solution, also named Jizô AI.

JIZÔ AI: AN ADVANCED AI SOLUTION FOR PREEMPTIVE CYBER DEFENSE

Jizô AI is an artificial intelligence solution that aligns with the concept of "Preemptive Cyber Defense," defined by Gartner as "an emerging category of cybersecurity technologies designed to anticipate and respond to the most sophisticated attacks, including zero-day attacks, lateral movements, and C2 communications." This technology is distinguished by its continuous deep learning capabilities and real-time behavioral analysis.

Unlike traditional malware database methods, the solution employs proprietary unsupervised AI algorithms that go beyond searching for known threats, analyzing all network traffic to detect any abnormal behavior. This approach not only enables the detection of zero-day attacks and unlisted threats but also reconstructs and visualizes the attack path, providing a better understanding of the threat's progression and paving the way for a new generation of proactive protection.

Jizô AI integrates two AI models:

• A proprietary model that adapts in real-time to each company's specific network, offering an optimal detection level for both ordinary and advanced threats.
• A generative AI model that provides automated recommendations to help security teams understand detected threats, their impact, and the actions needed to neutralize them.

Thanks to its ability to provide clear and detailed explanations, Jizô AI offers operators a precise view of detected anomalies, simplifying decision-making.

A SOLUTION TAILORED TO THE NEW CYBERSECURITY CHALLENGES FACED BY OPERATORS

Jizô AI relies on a deviation index to evaluate network traffic behavior and detect anomalies in real time. This method classifies threats based on their severity, providing a clear and structured view of incidents. Furthermore, the solution continuously adapts to new threats, thanks to its feedback module.

The feedback loop adjusts the algorithms' learning quality. It allows operators to directly feed the AI with their expertise, optimizing its performance and sharpening its detection capabilities.
