Silent Push partners with CDL Cyber Intelligence to bring preemptive defense to the United Kingdom
I’m pleased to share that Silent Push has entered a strategic partnership with CDL Cyber Intelligence, an intelligence-led cybersecurity firm serving organisations across the UK and Europe.
When I first sat down with the CDL team, what struck me was how clearly they had drawn their line in the sand. They built their practice on a straightforward conviction that anticipating threats requires intelligence, not just tooling. Their team includes former intelligence officers, ethical hackers, and security engineers with decades of experience across threat intelligence, incident response, attack surface management, and dark web monitoring.
That depth is why their clients across government, financial services, healthcare, and critical infrastructure turn to them when the threat picture matters most. We built Silent Push on the same conviction, which is part of why this partnership made sense to me so quickly.
The window most tools miss
The most capable threat actors targeting UK organisations spend weeks or months getting ready before anyone sees them. They register infrastructure, age domains, and stand up the hosting they will run a campaign from, all well before they go after a target. By the time a detection tool fires, the attacker has already finished the hard part.
The Context Graph maps that preparation phase. It continuously tracks how infrastructure is created, managed, and connected across DNS, WHOIS, certificates, and hosting data at internet scale, every day. When the management patterns match the operational TTPs adversaries use to build and run campaigns, the Context Graph surfaces those clusters as Indicators of Future Attack®: verified signals that a staging ground exists right now, before it has been pointed at anyone. CDL’s clients get an average of 157 days of lead time before a campaign reaches their perimeter.
Why it matters for the UK
The UK sits at a particular intersection of risk. As a NATO member, a major financial centre, and a jurisdiction with significant government and critical infrastructure targets, it draws sustained attention from state-linked threat actors alongside opportunistic campaigns hitting every sector. Silent Push Traffic Origin adds another layer that matters here. Many of the most capable actors targeting UK organisations route their activity through residential proxies and VPN infrastructure to look local and legitimate.
Traffic Origin identifies the true upstream country of origin controlling a connection, even when the observed IP looks clean. Pairing that with a team like CDL, who already know how to read and act on raw intelligence, gives their clients something I have not seen many teams able to offer.
We built CDL around the conviction that intelligence has to come before the event. That’s why the Context Graph fits the way we work. Our clients want to know what’s being pointed at them before it arrives, and Silent Push is the only platform that gives us that visibility.
