Broadcom Announces "Symantec CBX" at RSAC Conference 2026

TD SYNNEX Corporation (Headquarters: Tokyo, President: Shigetaka Kunimochi), a designated sales distributor for Broadcom Inc. (hereinafter "Broadcom"), is pleased to announce that Broadcom has unveiled "Symantec CBX," a new cloud-based Extended Detection and Response (XDR) platform that integrates Symantec and Carbon Black technologies.

Based on the concept of "Enterprise-Grade Security For All," this product is designed to enable organizations without large security operations centers to utilize enterprise-level defense and real-time visibility. The announcement and exhibition took place at the company's booth during "RSAC Conference 2026," the world's largest cybersecurity event, held from March 23-26, 2026, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, USA, where attendees experienced the features of Symantec CBX.

TD SYNNEX is the designated sales distributor in the Japanese market for all enterprise security products under the Symantec and Carbon Black brands.

Background With the advancement of digital transformation, the number of devices, cloud services, and networks owned by organizations has rapidly increased, expanding the "attack surface" targeted by attackers. Meanwhile, Security Operations Centers (SOCs) are overwhelmed by a vast number of alerts and signals, making it difficult to quickly identify critical attacks. The proliferation of multiple tools and products, and the dispersion of data and telemetry, lead to "tool sprawl," where analysts analyze the same information multiple times or fail to grasp the full picture of an attack.

Furthermore, teams with limited resources find it challenging to build and maintain their own SOCs, making it difficult to ensure sufficient enterprise-grade defense and real-time visibility. This often results in delayed responses even when attacks are detected, increasing the risk of expanded business damage.

Symantec CBX was developed to address these common industry challenges by integrating and correlating multi-layered telemetry from endpoints, networks, clouds, and data on a single platform, aiming to reduce alert fatigue and enable rapid response. By prioritizing and responding to truly critical alerts based on AI-driven insights, organizations can achieve advanced defense even with limited resources.

About "Symantec CBX" Symantec CBX is a cloud-based XDR platform that combines the development capabilities of Symantec and Carbon Black. Its purpose is to provide enterprise-level protection and real-time visibility even to teams without large SOCs. At RSAC Conference 2026, Jason Rolleston, Broadcom's VP and GM of the Enterprise Security Group (ESG), officially announced Symantec CBX, stating, "Symantec CBX provides enterprise-level security and real-time insights even to small security teams."

Key Features ・Enhanced Endpoint Security Provides powerful endpoint security combining Symantec's robust defense and Carbon Black's EDR. ・Integrated Telemetry Correlation Collects and correlates telemetry from endpoint, network, cloud, and data layers with a single agent, providing a comprehensive view of threats. ・Reduced Alert Fatigue and Rapid Response Eliminates the vast number of alerts and tool sprawl from various products, reducing costs and operational burden. AI automatically prioritizes threats, shortening response times. ・Dynamic Prevention AI detects abnormal behavior of legitimate software and proactively blocks attacks using unknown methods. ・Incident Prediction and Intuitive Investigation Visualizes threat progression, predicts attacker's next moves, and suggests defensive measures. It also provides intuitive investigation features to help SOC analysts easily understand the full scope of an attack. ・Adaptive Protection Detects and automatically blocks abnormal usage in attacks that exploit legitimate tools, such as Living Off The Land (LOTL) attacks. ・Threat Tracer Provides a visual view that allows even junior analysts to trace the entire attack chain, enabling rapid response.
