Cynet Updates CyAI Engine to Improve Threat Detection Accuracy and Reduce False Positives

Cynet has rolled out a major update to CyAI, the artificial intelligence engine embedded in its All-in-One Cybersecurity Platform. The upgrade is designed to strengthen threat detection accuracy and dramatically reduce false positives—by up to 90%—a move that underscores Cynet’s continued focus on helping MSPs and SMBs manage cyber risk more efficiently with the support of a 24/7 SOC.

The enhanced CyAI engine builds on machine learning models trained on millions of files and behaviors. By scanning every executable across all protected endpoints, CyAI identifies both known and zero-day threats earlier in the attack cycle. As part of the upgrade, Cynet has implemented a continuous feedback loop—branded as Deep Analysis—that captures insights from real-world detections to fine-tune the AI models over time.

This update comes on the heels of Cynet’s performance in recent third-party evaluations, where the platform achieved full protection and visibility without generating false positives. Now, with CyAI’s reengineered core, the platform is positioned to deliver broader and more precise threat coverage for partners managing high volumes of security events.

With the latest CyAI upgrade, Cynet is also sharpening its focus on how artificial intelligence can reduce alert fatigue while improving detection precision—especially for service providers managing cybersecurity on behalf of SMBs. According to Aviad Hasnis, Chief Technology Officer at Cynet, the enhancements were purpose-built with channel partners in mind.

“The latest enhancements to CyAI were designed in-house with service providers in mind — particularly channel partners supporting SMBs that can’t afford high rates of false positives or missed threats,” Hasnis said. “By further improving detection accuracy and reducing alert fatigue, CyAI helps Cynet partners deliver more responsive support and confident guidance — without scaling headcount.”

That level of efficiency, Hasnis noted, helps MSPs and MSSPs accelerate service-level agreements while reinforcing their role as trusted security advisors in a competitive and resource-constrained market.

As AI becomes more embedded in Cynet’s platform strategy, the company is also expanding partner support to help providers translate new capabilities into client-facing value. “Automation has always been central to Cynet’s approach,” Hasnis explained. “Alongside the deployment of CyAI, we’re focused on enabling partners to translate the full potential of AI-enabled detection, investigation, and response into tangible value for clients.”

This includes operational guidance from Cynet Success Managers, who are trained to help partners integrate CyAI insights into daily workflows and reporting. It also includes go-to-market resources like playbooks and white-label collateral to show how CyAI reduces risk, complexity, and cost.

“Ultimately, our goal is to make security an engine of growth for Cynet partners and a strength for their SMB clients,” Hasnis added. “AI is only a game-changer to the extent it can be seamlessly integrated and effectively operationalized. That’s what the Cynet Partner Program is delivering.”
