Current research and development focuses:
  • Glog.AIAutonomous Software Security. Seamlessly identifies and remediates security vulnerabilities within your code, empowering development teams to focus on innovation rather than manual fixes. We are pioneering the shift toward fully automated vulnerability remediation, ensuring security moves at the speed of your business.

  • NetEcho (former INPRESEC) – Advanced Network Security Anomaly Detection. Identifies real-time threats, attacks, and exploits within network traffic using a novel, AI-driven approach. By detecting emerging attack vectors at their earliest stages, it enables organizations to move from reactive defense to proactive, optimized security planning.

  • Security PredictionsAI-Driven Threat Intelligence. By synthesizing high-fidelity data from a diverse range of internal and external sources, our proprietary algorithms calculate the probability of future threats. This enables organizations to anticipate attacks before they materialize, transforming raw data into actionable foresight.

  • vSOC (Virtual Security Operations Center) – A modern, virtualized SOC framework that synchronizes Glog.AI, NetEcho, and our proprietary threat intelligence. It serves as a unified, autonomous command center for full-spectrum security, ensuring continuous protection and rapid response.
