ThreatDown

ThreatDown is the corporate business unit of Malwarebytes, providing cybersecurity products aimed at small and medium businesses, mid-market organisations and managed service providers with limited IT resources. Its work spans machine learning, AI-driven threat detection and response, endpoint detection and response (EDR), managed detection and response (MDR), email security, patch management, and protection against ransomware, malware and phishing. The engineering effort draws on nearly two decades of machine learning security research carried out within Malwarebytes.

The company's core product is the ThreatDown platform, a unified, lightweight system that combines EDR, MDR, patch management and email security. It is designed to install in minutes and to work immediately, and is built for SMBs, mid-market organisations and MSPs. A central technical claim is that the platform analyses, classifies and responds to threats at machine scale.

Alongside the platform, ThreatDown offers an EDR component for endpoint protection and an MDR service providing 24/7 oversight by security operations analysts. The MDR team operates around the clock, and the broader research and operations function underpins the machine learning models used for threat detection and response.

Product recognition includes Product of the Year honours and consistent ranking as a leader in endpoint protection, with citations from MRG Effitas, Gartner Peer Insights and G2. The stated design emphasis is on effective, easy-to-use tooling for IT teams with constrained resources.
