Malware and phishing analysis for banking and financial services, deployed on your terms.
A regulated environment, a relentless alert volume, and automation that only works if the analysis behind it is right. Accurate verdicts your workflows can act on, behavioral depth when an alert becomes an investigation, and a deployment model you choose.
100+ Banking and financial institutions worldwide trust VMRay toEmpower reliable security automation
Accelerate analysis and incident response
Strengthen cyber resilience, and prove it
What makes financial services defense different
Three conditions change what an analysis layer has to do.
VOLUMEAlert volume that makes manual verification impractical
EVIDENCEBoards, auditors, and regulators ask for proof, not assurance
GOVERNANCEWhere analysis runs is a regulated decision
What VMRay provides financial security teams
Accurate enough to automate on, deep enough to evidence, available where your obligations require.
01 / AUTOMATION Verdicts your automation can act on
Automation is only as reliable as the analysis feeding it. False positives put a human back in every loop, and a wrongly blocked email disrupts the business.
- Definitive verdicts: malicious, suspicious, or benign
- Benign verdicts you can act on, so false alarms close cleanly
- Scored IOCs structured for automated use
- Native integrations and REST API into EDR, SIEM, SOAR, and TIP
02 / DEPTH AND INTELLIGENCE Behavioral depth that stands as evidence
Signature-based detection misses what it has not seen before. Observed behavior produces findings you can show to an auditor and reuse as intelligence.
- Full execution chain, including multi-stage delivery
- Malware configuration extraction: C2 servers, campaign identifiers
- MITRE ATT&CK TTP mapping against your detection coverage
- Structured reports readable by junior and senior analysts alike
03 / DEPLOYMENT Four deployment models, one analysis capability
Where VMRay runs is your decision, and it does not cost you capability. Feature parity is maintained across deployment models wherever technically applicable.
- VMRay Cloud: instant to deploy, always current
- European Sovereign Cloud: hosted in Germany, EU law
- On-premises: full control of your infrastructure
- Air-gapped: maximum isolation, no connection required
For cloud deployments, you select the hosting region and the retention period that applies to your data.

How financial security teams are using VMRay
Three organizations, three starting points. Stack consolidation, investigation speed, and the move from reactive to proactive.
FEATURED CUSTOMER STORYHow a major financial services organization empowers its SOC and streamlines its stack
A 50-plus-person security organization covering several thousand endpoints across North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific set out to consolidate: use Microsoft Defender to its full potential for both Office and Endpoint, and divest from another significant investment. That move required a validation layer accurate enough that the team could block with certainty and close false alarms without hesitation.
- Definitive benign verdicts filtering false positives from existing tools
- VMRay output surfaced directly in the Microsoft console for daily triage
- Faster SOAR playbook activation and automated ticket enrichment
VMRay significantly accelerates our triage and SOAR playbooks. My analysts can work faster and block with certainty, knowing they aren’t disrupting legitimate business communications.
