Cylance to open offices on Cork city's South Mall

An international anti-virus and cybersecurity company, Cylance, is to open offices on Cork city’s South Mall: a formal jobs announcement and commitment is due within days. It’s one of several new office moves on the South Mall, with Irish Life Health also taking space on the street from next week.

In advance of the fast-growing artificial intelligence company Cylance’s statement of Irish intent, its branding has just gone up this week on 89-90 South Mall, the former Norwich Union office block acquired a year ago by John Cleary Developments (JCD) for c€4m and which is being significantly upgraded.

California-based Cylance was established by ex-McAfee / Intel CTO Stuart McClure, and established an EMEA presence in London earlier this year, and has Irish partnerships in Sandyford, Dublin, with a company called Threatscape.
