Eye Security launches Eye Log to close the log retention gap for mid-market companies. April 23, 2026 New log storage solution delivers 12-month EU-stored log retention, addressing forensic readiness and compliance gaps for regulated organisations The Hague, Netherlands, April 23, 2026 - Eye Security, a European leader in managed cybersecurity, today announced Eye Log, a log storage solution that enhances its Cyber Guard platform with EU-sovereign log retention. Eye Log delivers enterprise-grade forensic readiness and compliance confidence to businesses that do not want the cost or complexity of a traditional Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) system. The launch addresses a growing forensic and compliance gap that auditors and insurers are increasingly flagging: most endpoint detection tools capture only a narrow set of logs and retain them for just 14 to 90 days by default, leaving organisations both limited in log depth and forensically blind for the rest of the year. As regulatory requirements tighten across Europe, maintaining proportionate logging and monitoring controls is becoming inevitable. Cyber insurance renewals are also driving urgency. Insurers now frequently require proof of long-term log retention, something many IT teams cannot meet without significant infrastructure investment. Auditors report the same pattern: when an incident is discovered, the first question is always "Do you have logs from that period?" For most organisations, the answer is no, creating forensic gaps that block both incident investigations and compliance evidence. Eye Log closes this gap with two tiers tailored to different retention, retrieval, and forensic investigation needs: * Eye Log Comply: 12 months of cold storage with a 48-business-hour retrieval SLA, designed for organisations that need audit-ready log records without the cost or complexity of running a SIEM. * Eye Log Hybrid: 30 days of hot storage plus 11 months of cold archive, with a 24-business-hour retrieval SLA for hot data and 48-business-hour SLA for cold. Built for higher-risk environments and sectors where active incidents require fast access to historical data for forensic reconstruction alongside compliance coverage. "EYE see most organisations today trapped between two bad options: accept the forensic limitations of 14-90-day endpoint logs, or spend six figures on a SIEM that nobody has the time or resources to tune. But logs tell an important story, and when auditors ask for that evidence, it should simply be there. That's exactly why EYE built Eye Log. EYE understand the realities its customers face, and EYE designed Eye Log to meet their needs without the over-complexity that comes with many traditional solutions. And because it works in synergy with Cyber Guard, Eye Log delivers compliance confidence and investigation readiness from day one. Its goal at Eye Security is to give customers real peace of mind, not burden them with yet another 'fire-and-forget' tool." - Piet Kerkhofs, Chief Technology Officer, Eye Security Eye Log is sold exclusively as an add-on to Cyber Guard, priced by daily log volume.

Eye Security launches complisec, a compliance layer for AI agents in Europe. April 16, 2026 New open-source capability helps AI agents recognise compliance risks, apply guardrails, and escalate to humans in European business environments The Hague, April 16, 2026 - Eye Security today announced complisec, an open-source AI compliance layer designed to help AI agents and agentic workflows operate more safely in European environments. An open-source compliance layer for AI agents In many organisations, AI agents are already writing code, processing data, and making decisions without a clear understanding of what they are allowed to do. Many still lack awareness of the how European organisations operate. This creates a growing risk between what AI systems can do and what they should do. complisec is designed to close that gap. It can be easily activated as a layer on top of existing AI tools and platforms, like Copilot and ChatGPT, without requiring changes to the underlying systems. It enables AI to recognise risks, apply guardrails, and escalate decisions when human oversight is required. Addressing the gap between what AI can do and what it should do For example, an AI agent handling customer data may not recognise when that data should not be stored or moved outside the EU, or when a decision should be escalated instead of handled automatically. Complisec provides that awareness at the moment decisions are made. Based on its current scope, complisec is being designed to support areas such as: * Organisation-specific compliance enforcement * NIS2 gap analysis tools * GDPR data protection & secrets blocking * Audit logging & central compliance records * Incident management within NIS2 deadlines * Supplier & vendor risk assessment * Change management for critical assets Built for European regulatory and operational environments Most frontier AI models from Anthropic, OpenAI and Google, are designed to be broadly useful across markets, but are not built with specific regulatory environments like GDPR or NIS2 in mind. Complisec is designed to add that missing layer of European context on top. The goal is not to replace human oversight, but to enable decision-makers to make faster and better decisions with the help of AI. "AI agents are becoming more capable every month, but capability without context is risky," said Piet Kerkhofs, CTO of Eye Security. "European companies need AI agents that do not just move fast, but understand the operational and compliance environment they are working in. Complisec is an early step toward that future." Designed for practical use across existing AI platforms Eye Security is making complisec available as an open-source contribution to the wider cyber and builder community. The solution is designed for straightforward onboarding by both human users and AI agents across major platforms. By doing so, the company aims to accelerate the development of safer, more accountable AI systems across Europe. "We see a clear shift from experimentation to real operational use of AI," added Kerkhofs. "In incident response, the same questions always come up: what happened, what data was involved, and who made the decision. AI agents need to operate with that level of accountability. That's the gap we're addressing with complisec." Enabling more accountable AI systems across Europe Eye Security believes Europe has a unique opportunity to lead in building trustworthy, compliance-aware AI systems that reflect its regulatory and operational standards. As AI moves from experimentation into daily operations, the next phase of adoption will be defined not just by capability, but by responsibility. Complisec reflects that shift, embedding compliance, accountability, and escalation into AI-driven work. Not a replacement for a CISO, but a practical compliance layer for AI-driven work.

Eye Security and The S-Unit partner to bridge the gap between detection and offensive security. April 14, 2026 The Hague, April 7, 2026 - Eye Security, a European leader in 24/7 threat detection and incident response, today announced a strategic partnership with The S-Unit, a Netherlands-based specialist in offensive security, delivering penetration testing and red teamings to simulate advanced threat actors. The partnership reflects a broader shift in cybersecurity from isolated controls toward integrated security models that combine continuous detection with proactive exposure of unknown risk. From reacting to threats to understanding exposure Cybersecurity has entered a new phase. Across incident response engagements, threat actors are no longer breaking in through technical exploits alone. Instead, they operate within trusted environments and leverage valid credentials, misconfigurations, and overlooked vulnerabilities. In this context, the distinction between defensive and offensive security is increasingly artificial. "Most incidents we investigate today do not begin with sophisticated exploits. They begin with access that should not have been possible in the first place," said Piet Kerkhofs, CTO of Eye Security. "If you cannot see where you are exposed, you cannot defend it. This partnership is about closing that gap." By combining Eye Security's real-time detection and response capabilities with The S-Unit's offensive testing expertise, organisations gain both visibility into active threats and insight into the weaknesses that enable them. Introducing a structured approach from signal to action Under the partnership, Eye Security acts as the primary security partner and advisor to customers. When a need for penetration testing is identified, requirements are qualified and transferred to The S-Unit through a structured referral model. This ensures clear scoping based on real-world risk, fast alignment between detection insights and testing priorities, and frictionless handover from advisory to execution. The S-Unit then delivers penetration testing engagements across domains including network infrastructure, applications, cloud environments, and human-centric attack vectors. Crucially, the model maintains continuity. Findings from offensive testing can be directly translated into improved detection, monitoring, and response strategies. Addressing a structural gap in modern security The partnership targets a growing disconnect in cybersecurity programmes. Whereas many organisations invest heavily in prevention and monitoring, fewer have a clear understanding of their actual exposure, particularly in complex, cloud-first environments. This gap is widening as identity becomes the primary attack surface, attack paths increasingly involve legitimate access, and traditional security signals become less reliable "Cybersecurity today is about understanding how threat actors think and operate. By integrating offensive and defensive capabilities, we move from reactive security to informed resilience," said Job Kuijpers, CEO of Eye Security. Local expertise, real-world impact The partnership is initially focused on the Dutch market, where regulatory pressure, digitalisation, and sector-specific risk, particularly in healthcare, finance, and critical infrastructure, are driving demand for more mature security practices. The S-Unit brings over a decade of experience in offensive security, conducting more than 200 penetration tests annually across a wide range of industries. "We are often brought in to uncover what organisations cannot see themselves. Our role is to think like a threat actor, but act in the interest of the organisation. Combined with Eye Security's detection capabilities, this creates a much stronger security posture," said Marko van Zwam, Managing Director at The S-Unit. Towards a unified model of cybersecurity As organisations adopt AI, SaaS platforms, and interconnected systems, the attack surface continues to expand, often faster than visibility can keep up. The partnership reflects a broader industry direction. Security must evolve from fragmented controls into a continuous, feedback-driven system where exposure, detection, and response reinforce each other. In that model, penetration testing is no longer a periodic compliance exercise but a strategic input into how organisations detect, respond, and adapt.
