Qevlar AI #Qevlar
Qevlar AI, a cybersecurity company founded in Paris in 2023, is developing autonomous AI-powered solutions for Security Operations Centers (SOCs) to address challenges like alert fatigue and the shortage of skilled professionals. Their platform utilizes "agentic AI" built on a proprietary knowledge graph and LLM stack to autonomously investigate security alerts, integrate with existing tools, and automate Level 1 and 2 analyst tasks. Qevlar AI highlights benefits such as significantly reduced investigation times, increased analyst productivity, improved alert accuracy, and autonomous closure of benign alerts, ultimately aiming for faster threat detection and response. Backed by $14 million in funding from investors like EQT Ventures and Forgepoint Capital International, and incubated by Meta and Microsoft, Qevlar AI is led by co-founders Ahmed Achchak (CEO) and Hamza Sayah.
