    • Looking for network breaches at customers and identifying perpetrators with the help of their huge databases that make up TraceCop. 
    • Savant allows them real-time packet flow analysis, which can be used for stuff like identifying suspect data flows, for instance flows from inside to either an unknown outside destination or one that is known to be suspect. In that way the company can establish where the security breach is located. 
    This forensic work at customers is labor intensive, which is a main reason Intrusion has difficulty growing, but what Shield does is automate the execution with the help of algorithms. This has immediate advantages:
    • Instead of labor intensive, almost no labor is required, it's plug and play and runs automatically.
    • Instead of tools used in forensic work, it's automated execution enables real-time protection. 
    • The forensic work is still important though, as it improves the understanding of, and identification of new breaches, and this can be fed into new rules in Shield.
    Here is Blount on the May 27 CC:
    Quote:Without our database, you couldn't have this product without our technology for a real-time appliance that can look real-time at every packet of information moving, you couldn't do this. So it utilizes the assets this company has developed, has expertise in, adds a little bit of AI to us and makes it so that it is easy to install and configure and does not require a significant overhead or headcount... 

    Again, this is a value-add add-on to everything you already have for cybersecurity, but it does something that you're not getting today. It blocks billions of bad attempts to connect to you that nobody else can block. Almost all other cybersecurity tools are tools that you analyze where you got breached, when you got breached and how you got breached to try and figure out how to stop it next time. This product stops it before you get breached...

    And once you get into an enclave or into an internal of a corporation, you can spread laterally like crazy with no limitations. And that's the place we're spinning the lead talking about because that's where all our patents are getting written up... It's the only product I'm aware of that actually tells you every day what it just protected you from.

    And perhaps most crucially:
    Quote:So I will continue to grow our federal business, our large corporation business and consulting because when we're asked to come in and consult with these people, we'll come -- they bring us in on the hardest problems they can't find or deal with. And they really want our help to be able to focus on that problem. So by doing that, that's where we get the expertise that we build into the AI that makes this product work. So we will continue to grow, focus and make our consulting business critically important for this company, just as been in the past.

  • The stock traded at $5-$6 and only struggled because part of the DoD budget that covered two big orders got shifted away for building the wall with Mexico. Management still expects these orders to renew even if the share price hasn't fully recovered from this.
  • They hired a new sales person a while ago with extensive contacts in the DoD and he is working on 6-7 new orders, 3 of which are already in procurement. 
  • While we don't know how good the new product, Shield, is and how well it will sell, this business is in addition to their existing business.
  • In time, the company is likely to be listed to a proper exchange.
    • So part of the downside is already priced in, while little of the upside is, we quite like this situation.]]>

  • Introducing a CEO with a ton of experience and contacts.
  • It's amazing that a company as little as Intrusion was able to get such a top-notch CEO.
  • It's even more amazing hearing him talk about the open-ended upside of the new product called Shield, which he called a must have, selling itself and facing "the most unlimited market I have ever serviced by far."
  • Introducing a new product (not yet formally, as they are still writing the patent applications)
  • The product will block incoming dodgy traffic and also prevent it from spreading laterally within an organization's network.
  • The new product is based on their existing products TraceCop and Savant and automates these with the help of AI so that it becomes a real-time threat protection that isn't signature based, like most of the competition.
  • Signature based is basically a list, the new product AI leverages the company's experience with identifying dodgy behavior and automates it (with TraceCop, company people go over queries with their customers to identify threats after the fact, which is slow, labor intensive and doesn't prevent threats from coming in and propagating within the organization's network. 
  • Cybercrimes today are mostly written and operated by AI, that is, every time they come at you they are slightly different, a signature based approach is not cutting it, which is why you see so many security breaches despite the billions spend on cybersecurity products. 
  • TraceCop was previously sold almost entirely just to the DoD
  • The new CEO has worked in the Ministry of Agriculture implementing a cybersecurity project, he still has ample contacts there so he could instantly expand the market already for their existing products beyond the DoD
  • But the main market for the new product is commercial, working through 18K channel partners which the CEO (in his previous jobs) helped create and has ample contacts and experience with and distributors like Ingram Micro (he already has an appointment in a couple of weeks). 
  • The commercial market is as good as new (almost all their sales are just to DoD), and much larger for Intrusion
  • The product is SaaS based, in the order of $20 per seat per month + appliance, a turnkey solution.
  • Installation is a simple add-on to the company's network.
  • The share price crashed 10%, we believe some investors were disappointed the company isn't putting itself up for sale or partnering with a big company.
  • We also believe these selling investors have missed the point, and will look up in wonder what they have done in a year or so..
    • Comments, additions, suggestions, questions welcome.. one can join following the instructions here.]]>
