Cybersecurity Deep Tech: In-Depth Interview with Anter Virk on Shepherd & Subconscious Compute

Why Cybersecurity Automation is Essential

Cybersecurity has become more complex, with threats evolving at an unprecedented rate. Anter Virk emphasized how Cybersecurity Automation helps businesses manage this complexity by automating routine tasks like monitoring, threat detection, and response. This not only frees up security teams to focus on high-level strategy but also ensures a faster response to attacks.

“Automation is a game changer. It allows us to deploy robust defenses without manual oversight, reducing the room for error and speeding up response times,” Virk explained.

How Subcom is Leveraging Cybersecurity Automation

Subcom’s approach to Cybersecurity Automation is centered around its innovative platform, Shepherd. Shepherd automates several key security functions, from threat hunting to incident response. Anter elaborated on how Shepherd utilizes artificial intelligence to detect anomalies in network behavior and responds in real-time, significantly reducing the risk window.

Virk explained that the future of cybersecurity lies in smart systems that can independently manage threats: “Automation helps us handle thousands of alerts that would otherwise overwhelm human analysts.”

Benefits for Businesses

With cyberattacks on the rise, Cybersecurity Automation is becoming a critical investment for companies of all sizes. Anter discussed how automation not only reduces operational costs but also ensures scalability. Companies can protect vast amounts of data without the need to continuously expand their security teams.

“Automation scales with your business. Whether you’re a startup or an enterprise, Cybersecurity Automation can ensure your security infrastructure grows as you do,” said Virk.

The Future of Cybersecurity

Looking forward, Virk emphasized that Automation will play a key role in the future of the industry. Automation will enable businesses to implement predictive security measures, using AI to anticipate potential threats before they materialize. As cyber threats become more complex, automation provides the agility and intelligence necessary to stay ahead of attackers.
