The NHS operates one of the largest IT infrastructures in the UK, supporting millions of endpoints, including legacy systems and medical IoT devices (IoMT). However, escalating cyber threats, ransomware attacks, and the high cost of patching and upgrades expose NHS services to operational and financial risks. This whitepaper introduces Abatis, a deterministic, proactive cybersecurity solution that prevents malware execution at the kernel level, eliminating reliance on patches, updates, and behavioural detection. With the NHS undergoing governance changes and budget reallocations, integrating Abatis ensures long-term resilience, operational security, and financial sustainability. By deploying Abatis across NHS Trusts, GP practices, and critical care facilities, the UK can enhance cybersecurity, safeguard patient care, and achieve substantial cost reductions, securing the future of its healthcare infrastructure.

The shift to digital battlefields has made software a critical component of military operations, driving communication, navigation, and fire control. Software must be exceptionally stable and power-efficient to ensure mission success in this demanding environment. Abatis, born from military-specific development, directly addresses these requirements, offering a platform built for the reliability essential in operational deployments.

In the face of increasing digitalization in metro systems, like São Paulo’s Line 6-Orange, robust cybersecurity is paramount. Abatis provides a unique solution to this challenge. Its deterministic endpoint security protects against modern cyber threats, including malware and ransomware, without the need for frequent updates or external threat intelligence. This lightweight and proactive approach ensures the integrity and security of critical OT and IT infrastructure.

Unlike traditional security tools that depend on signatures, heuristics, or behavioural analysis, Abatis operates on a fundamentally different principle. It ensures absolute security by preventing undesired changes to the system’s integrity. This makes Abatis ideal for high-assurance environment such as pharmaceutical manufacturing and bioinformatics research, where system stability and data confidentiality are paramount.

This white paper delves into the modern attack strategies targeting ATMs, showcasing real-world incidents that underscore the urgency of the issue.

This white paper examines how Abatis, an advanced cybersecurity solution, enables organisations to effectively comply with the Digital Operational Resilience Act (DORA) mandates. Abatis enhances the resilience of financial institutions against the backdrop of evolving risks by providing exceptional operational integrity, proactive threat neutralisation, energy efficiency, cost-effective compliance, and compatibility with legacy and contemporary systems. 

This whitepaper explores the unique capabilities of Abatis, a cybersecurity solution that moves beyond traditional “detect, respond, and mitigate” models to offer proactive, deterministic protection. Supporting all operating systems from Windows NT4 to Windows 11 (including servers) and all Linux variants, Abatis addresses critical security challenges for financial institutions, including the cadence patch gap, immutability, and AI-driven threat acceleration. With its lightweight footprint, energy efficiency, and ability to prevent malware persistence, Abatis provides a scalable, zero-maintenance solution for diverse IT environments. Real-world use cases demonstrate its value in application servers, vendor appliances, ATMs, and more.

Aegis is data protection software with a revolutionary approach—proactive prevention that does not rely on detection, heuristics, or updates. This zero-knowledge methodology ensures robust protection by focusing solely on safeguarding data files, making it impossible for ransomware to perform malicious encryption.

This whitepaper explains how Abatis can be best used when a system is known to have already been compromised. The primary use case for Abatis is to prevent exploiting a known-good system. However, Abatis can also help prevent further exploiting an already compromised system.
