AT&T Cybersecurity offers a paid security platform, called Unified Security Management, that integrates threat detection, incident response, and compliance management into one application.[1] Threat applications are offered via hardware, virtual machines, and as a cloud service.[2] Other services that AT&T provides include network vulnerability scanning, vulnerability assessment, and vulnerability management. The Open Threat Exchange (OTX) allows security experts to research and collaborate on threats, compare data, and integrate threat information into their security systems.[3] A big data platform, OTX uses natural language processing and machine learning.[3]
AT&T Cybersecurity also runs the Open Source Security Information Management (OSSIM) project, which provides computer security, intrusion detection, and response services.[4][5]

The company added 300 to 400 new clients each quarter, and it hired a Chief Financial Officer to help it prepare for a possible initial public offering (IPO).[2]
