Company mission
Aware's mission is to adopt the latest advancements in cognitive computing, artificial intelligence and behavioral analytics to amplify enterprise value by monitoring the social graph.
Our take
Data analysis is invaluable to businesses of any kind, but the risks associated with inadequate security can lead to expensive compliance failures. This risk is increased greatly when data is collected from and shared between many sources, yet this is precisely what businesses need to maximize the value and scope of the data insights they can gain.
Aware provides an AI-driven data collaboration and governance platform for businesses, facilitating the maximization of data by automatically searching, monitoring, and analyzing all sources of information within data networks. These sources include conventional datasets in addition to data scraped from digital conversations and documents, helping businesses to access otherwise invisible data whilst ensuring it is accessed compliantly.
Whilst data compliance platforms are already commonplace, Aware has taken a unique approach by leveraging AI to scrape alternative sources for data that would otherwise be too time-consuming to utilize. The platform's AI-enriched data governance technology also ensures that despite maximizing data visibility, it is always achieved compliantly in a way that is easily searchable by all relevant parties.
