W E L C O M E T O T H E C Y L A N C E ® B R A N D

Cylance’s mission is to protect every endpoint under the sun. Our brand reflects our commitment to lead cybersecurity technology with an understanding of the mentality and motivations that drive hackers and the challenges IT security teams face in defending their organizations from cyberattacks.

In 2003, a group of the world’s most dedicated scientists announced the completion of a 20-year project to map the entire human genome with 99.9% accuracy. Their work has led to many of the scientific breakthroughs we benefit from today. The same vision that drove these pioneers and luminaries is what drives Cylance. By unlocking the DNA of malware and applying artificial intelligence techniques, machine learning and algorithmic science, Cylance is forging a new path and redefining what it means to be secure. Through this approach, Cylance is able to provide enterprises around the world with an unparalleled ability to prevent advanced threats and malware from causing harm.

Our industry leadership and ability to detect and prevent malware and advanced persistent threats is reflected in our brand style. The Cylance brand is more than a logo, a tagline or a typeface. Our brand is our voice. Consistency in communications is critical to each touchpoint along the customer journey. As outlined in this guide, the consistent use of branding and messaging builds recognition and trust in the Cylance brand. This guide serves as a

resource for Cylance team members and outside resources assisting with content creation. Please adhere to the branding and messaging guidelines provided within when creating content and materials for Cylance.

While the style and messaging rules are fixed, they are not designed to be limiting. Creativity within the Cylance community is encouraged within the context of the guidelines, provided that consistency in branding is maintained.

Content creators should always feel compelled to reach out to their Cylance representatives for advice and style guide support as questions and concern arise — and for approval to use the Cylance logo and messaging in any format not covered within this guide.

Please note that all communication materials using the Cylance brand must be proofread and approved by the Cylance Marketing team before final production. For support in the creation of marketing and communications materials, please reach out to those contacts listed on the next page.

By using Cylance brand and messaging materials, you agree to adhere to these Cylance branding guidelines and all Cylance rules and policies, which may be updated from time to time. You also acknowledge that Cylance is the sole owner of Cylance trademarks, promise not to interfere with Cylance’s rights in them, and acknowledge that goodwill derived from their use accrues only to Cylance. Cylance may review use of the branding materials at any time and reserves the right to terminate or modify any use.

Cylance communications are made up of the multiple elements. The logo is the focal point - an instantly recognizable symbol of the brand. That’s why it’s important to use the logo exactly as specified in these guidelines. Our logo is the combination of a simple and modern wordmark with the Icon. The icon combines a shield and a DNA strand. The shield represents protection which is at the heart of what Cylance does. The DNA strand represents how we analyze malware at the molecular level. We are very proud of our logo, and would appreciate it if you could follow these guides to ensure it always looks its best.

The Cylance brand is heavily supported by the use of imagery. There are various types of images which can be used to support any form of content. Cylance imagery should never be contrived, trite or cliché. We use a blend of photography, textures and rendered visuals to convey the image of Cylance. We love our brand and care a lot about how it appears in the world. All imagery should be taken from our asset library and never from outside sources. Please reference the following guidelines when expressing our brand visually.

Company Overview

About CylanceCylance uses artificial intelligence to deliver prevention-first, predictive security products and specialized security services that change how organizations approach endpoint security. Cylance’s security solutions provide full spectrum predictive threat prevention and visibility across the enterprise, combatting threats such as malware, ransomware, fileless malware, malicious scripts, weaponized docs, and other attack vectors. With AI based malware prevention, application and script control, memory protection, device policy enforcement, root cause analysis, threat hunting, automated threat detection and response, coupled with expert security services, Cylance can protect endpoints without increasing staff workload or costs.

Company OverviewCylance is transforming the cybersecurity market with proactive, preventive antivirus technology based on artificial intelligence, machine learning, and algorithmic science. Headquartered in Irvine, California and with offices around the world, Cylance was founded in June 2012 by a distinguished team of security industry professionals and scientists to redefine the endpoint standard of protection by preventing threats from ever executing. Cylance investor partners include DFJ Growth, KKR, Dell Ventures, Capital One Ventures, Blackstone Tactical Opportunities, TenEleven Ventures, ThomVest, Draper Nexus, Khosla Ventures, Fairhaven Capital, and Citi Ventures.

Using Math To Fight Malware: No Need for SignaturesCylance’s next-generation endpoint threat-prevention product, CylancePROTECT ®, is the only technology that completely eliminates the need for traditional antivirus software, anti-exploit products, whitelisting solutions, and host-based intrusion detection and prevention systems. The transformational detection and blocking offered by CylancePROTECT is based on a radically different technological approach than the signature-based technology in legacy antivirus products.

Unlike reactionary signature, heuristics, and behavior monitoring, all of which require an Internet connection, Cylance applies artificial intelligence to analyze a file’s characteristics and predict whether it’s safe or a threat that should be prevented from running on the local host.

Simple, Lightweight, Hands-Off Endpoint SecurityCylancePROTECT is delivered as a simple, lightweight agent that offers complete protection from system- and memory-based attacks, spear phishing, zero-day malware, privilege escalations, scripts, and malicious and potentially unwanted programs, all without the high false-positive rates, operational overhead, and management complexity of other solutions. With CylancePROTECT, it’s now possible to set and meet much higher standards for endpoint security. Cylance technology stops threats that others can’t.

Cylance Consulting: Smarter Security — Faster ServicesCylance’s expert consulting team has one goal in mind: secure Cylance clients as quickly as possible and maintain a higher level of security via prevention using artificial intelligence based technology. The team is comprised of industry-leading experts in all the most advanced security technologies for industrial control systems, enterprise security services, Internet of things (IoT)/embedded systems, incident response, compromise assessments, training, threat analysis, and threat elimination.

Using the Cylance brand on the web consists of many elements that greatly differ from other mediums. Our visual approach is much stricter on the web and requires a high level of detail. With that being said, approval must be given before any use of the Cylance name and/or brand.

Here are some samples of how we use buttons, tables and headers on the web.

Our email templates are straight forward and should consist of simple elements that follow a similar content path: header, main image, headline, content, CTA, and footer. All emails should use only Arial or Arial Narrow, not Titillium, as this will allow all operating systems and mail clients to properly display content.

Editorial Guidelines Messaging

Our mission, which is to protect everyone under the sun, and our brand, which centers upon using artificial intelligence and machine learning to analyze the DNA of malware to stop it before it ever executes, provide the central theme for all communications. Each marketing or messaging deliverable should be based as much as possible on the foundation provided by our mission and our brand.

Support messaging can address particular product or service benefits and address the specific requirements of each medium’s intended purpose and audience, but the mission and brand foundation should still be reflected in all final deliverables.

Cylance’s communications style is clear and direct. A good example of this style is that we would rather write Cylance secures endpoints than write Cylance provides the ability to secure endpoints. We want to showcase the advanced technology upon which our products are based, but do so at a high level without diving too deep into technical jargon and in-depth details in our marketing materials. Our marketing communications should focus on the benefits clients experience from the use of our technology, and should use short sentences and simple language whenever possible.

Following our messaging guidelines ensures consistent and effective written communications across the Cylance brand. Publishers and organizations tend to use a particular stylebook or reference manual as the basis for their editorial guidelines, which outline the use of grammar, punctuation, and style to achieve consistency in communications and messaging.

Following the Cylance Messaging Guidelines, outlined in a separate document, ensures consistent and effective written communications across the Cylance brand. Publishers and organizations tend to use a particular stylebook or reference manual as the basis for their editorial guidelines, which outline the use of grammar, punctuation, and style to achieve consistency in communications and messaging.

Cylance has based our messaging guidelines on the Associated Press Stylebook, though we have created Cylance-specific exceptions, which are outlined in the Cylance Messaging Guidelines. When in doubt, please refer to the Cylance Messaging Guidelines, defer to the AP Stylebook, or reach out to a Cylance representative.

You can obtain a copy of the latest version of the Cylance Messaging Guidelines by sending an email to [email protected].

In addition, over the following pages, we have provided standard, approved descriptions of varying length for Cylance, CylancePROTECT, and CylanceOPTICS. Please feel free to copy and paste these descriptions to use in branded content or to provide to vendors.
