BforeAI launches PreCrime Guarantee offering tenfold reimbursements

Thu, 30th May 2024

BforeAI, a provider of predictive attack intelligence and digital risk protection solutions, has introduced a significant new initiative aimed at cementing trust in their cybersecurity technology.

The New York-based company announced the launch of the PreCrime Guarantee, a breach protection pledge that promises to reimburse customers up to ten times the value of their service contract if they suffer a cyberattack due to an incorrect prediction by BforeAI's systems.

Luigi Lenguito, CEO and Founder of BforeAI, remarked on the new programme: "PreCrime is often thought to be 'too good to be true'. With our new guarantee, we are providing sceptics a win-win situation with our proven security solution, and in the process, helping them improve their risk management posture. Because security teams face continuous cost challenges, we want them to have peace of mind when deploying our predictive technology."

The PreCrime platform developed by BforeAI uses advanced artificial intelligence to predict, block, and preempt malicious cyber campaigns before they can impact organisations. Boasting a false positive rate of only 0.05%, the system promises rapid and reliable attack interception, ensuring that threats are neutralised within minutes.

The PreCrime Guarantee was formulated following a rigorous nine-month validation process conducted with a leading global cyber insurance provider. The insurer closely examined BforeAI’s AI models, scrutinising their performance against the company's market claims. Developing AI systems that deliver dependable, business-friendly results is critical, and the extensive validation process reinforced the credibility of BforeAI's technologies.

According to Gal Messinger, Chief Security Officer at Signify, customers are already realising the benefits of this added layer of protection. "We were already a very satisfied client of BforeAI and their PreCrime platform, having avoided multiple attacks thanks to their predictive and preemptive solution over the past two years. The Guarantee programme offers additional leverage when allocating the budget. Having this safeguard in place helps ensure that our cyber insurance premium will also stay manageable," Messinger said.

This launch aligns with BforeAI's recent successful funding endeavours. The company secured USD $15 million in a Series A funding round led by SYN Ventures, with continued support from initial investors Karma Ventures, Karista, Addendum Capital, and new backing from the Partnership Fund for New York City. The additional funds are poised to support further expansion in the U.S. market throughout 2024.

BforeAI's advanced solutions, rooted in behavioural AI, seek to redefine cyber defence by transitioning it from a reactive to a preemptive stance. Their PreCrime platform, known for its speedy and precise automation, is designed to protect against online fraud through enhanced brand protection and threat intelligence services. The new PreCrime Guarantee underscores the company's confidence in its technology and promises a radical shift in how organisations approach their cybersecurity strategies.

The PreCrime Guarantee is expected to play a pivotal role in attracting new clients and solidifying relationships with existing ones. As cyber threats continue to evolve, BforeAI’s pioneering solutions and substantial indemnification pledges aim to reassure companies that they can navigate the digital landscape with heightened security and reduced financial risk.
