Titan IC Licenses Its Helios RegEx Processor to LookingGlass for Network-Based Threat Mitigation

Billington Cybersecurity Summit, Washington DC, USA – Sep 13, 2016 – Titan IC Systems (Titan IC) today announces that LookingGlass Cyber Solutions (“LookingGlass”) has signed a multi-year strategic partnership to further advance their state of the art network–based threat mitigation with the Titan IC Helios regular expression (RegEx) processor.

LookingGlass threat mitigation solutions will take full advantage of the Helios RegEx processor to assist in threat detection by implementing tens of thousands of complex regular expressions in network data at speeds up to 40 Gb/s.  Titan IC has developed this ground-breaking technology and has implemented it on a Xilinx Kintex Ultrascale Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), so it can be specifically customized for each customer’s needs.  The technology can be easily updated while in full operation allowing the addition of new complex regular expressions during run time.

“This breakthrough Titan IC technology allows us to continue delivering state-of-the-art high-performance threat mitigation solutions,” said A.J Shipley, VP of Products at LookingGlass.  “The Titan IC Helios RegEx processor will further enhance our threat mitigation product line to easily scale to the tens of thousands of prioritized rules being delivered from our threat intelligence platform to our threat mitigation system”.   

Regular expression processing has mainly been executed in software up until now and has thus suffered inherent throughput difficulties that require vast amounts of host processing.  However, with the introduction of the Titan IC Helios RegEx processor, many of these issues can be eradicated by hardware offload acceleration on FPGA.  The Helios RegEx processor is proficient in analysing data at full network throughput rates reaching 40 Gb/s and can implement up to 1 million complex regular expressions in parallel.

“We are delighted to have signed this new license agreement with LookingGlass and we welcome them into the Titan IC RegEx ecosystem.  We congratulate them for their vision and innovation in being one of the first companies to recognise the benefits of RegEx offload acceleration on FPGA,” said Noel McKenna, CEO, Titan IC.  “With ever increasing cyber security threats and even higher network data speeds, there is a real necessity for the combined technology that LookingGlass and Titan IC are bringing to the market.”
