Darktrace
Self-learning AI for cyber defense
About Darktrace
Darktrace is a pioneering cyber AI company that uses self-learning artificial intelligence to detect and respond to novel cyber threats in real time. Unlike traditional security tools that rely on known threat signatures, Darktrace's AI learns the normal 'pattern of life' for every user, device, and network in an organization and alerts on anomalous behavior that could indicate an attack.
The company's approach, inspired by the human immune system, enables it to detect threats that have never been seen before, including insider threats, zero-day exploits, and sophisticated supply chain attacks. Darktrace's Antigena technology can take autonomous action to contain threats in real time, neutralizing attacks before they cause damage.
Founded by mathematicians from Cambridge University and former intelligence agency technologists, Darktrace serves over 9,000 customers globally. The company was taken private by Thoma Bravo in 2024 after trading on the London Stock Exchange, and continues to expand its AI capabilities across email, cloud, IoT, and operational technology environments.
