Our team is building a high-scale, exabyte-scale data platform to help enterprises: • Inventory and map their entire digital estate: From devices and users to permissions, data systems, and virtual machines, we help organizations discover and gain visibility into every asset. • Integrate and normalize data: By pre-integrating security data from disparate sources and standardizing it, we empower customers to store, retain, and use security logs more efficiently and affordably. • Answer critical security and governance questions: From identifying what systems exist and what's in them, to ensuring compliance with legal and corporate policies, we provide customers with insights and control over their security landscape. By leveraging an advanced security graph, built using AI and machine learning algorithms, we enable organizations to detect patterns, uncover threats, and make informed decisions about their digital estate's security posture in real time.
