Powering the next generation of cybersecurity applications thatDot presents a highly scalable streaming graph event processing engine that spun out of a DARPA project for advanced persistent threat (APT) detection. Creators of the Quine open source project, with funding from Crowdstrike, thatDot is rapidly becoming the most critical infrastructure for cybersecurity applications. thatDot Streaming Graph, the commercial version, is an event stream processor that interprets multiple simultaneous data streams as a graph, so it can do instant complex pattern detection on categorical data without having to turn it into bloated, sparse numerical data first. Standing queries allow you to ask questions of the past, present, and future at once, letting those answers flow in over time, with no time window limitations. No matter how long bad actors remain dormant, the moment they act, if your application is powered by thatDot, you’ve caught them. thatDot Novelty is a further advance with a pattern learning AI built in, so it finds anomalous event patterns without you even knowing what to look for. This advanced shift left style of event stream processing can do a lot more than just take cybersecurity to the next level, from real-time risk analysis and fraud detection to super-efficient data pipelines to IoT infrastructure optimization. Come check out where data processing is going next.
