Security vendors who offer a comprehensive security platform comprised of prevention, detection and response capabilities will lead the transition from prior generation solutions,&#8221; said Doug Cahill, senior analyst at Enterprise Strategy Group. With the addition of Confer, Carbon Black is offering such a next-gen platform to address the ever-evolving threat landscape.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">For more information on the acquisition and Cb Defense, check out Carbon Black&#8217;s announcement video, embedded below.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Carbon Black acquires Confer; Delivers most powerful NGAV solution - Archive\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/3cv66VV3-kY?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Waltham, MA-based endpoint security firm Carbon Black has announced its acquisition of Confer, a\u00a0Southborough, MA-based next-generation antivirus (NGAV) company. \u00a0Financial terms of the deal were undisclosed.
