Our take
Multi-cloud and cloud-first workloads have brought about modernisation for software developers, but security features for these workflows often have to play catch-up. Anvilogic bridges an enterprise's legacy data and information with the new landscape of the cloud. Through this, it transforms security operations for enterprises making the switch.
The company delivers cyber threat detection and hunting through a client's company’s Security Operations Center (SOC), utilising security knowledge-trained generative AI. It pitches itself to enterprises that are digitising their core functions, and can use Anvilogic’s platform as a bridge towards an updated security system.
Anvilogic especially stands out because it is a multi-data platform, capable of detecting threats for security data across Splunk, Azure and Snowflake. This approach is turning heads, with the company completing a Series C round of $45 million. The launch of the second gen of its Monte Copilot product also indicates that Anvilogic is innovating as fast as its clients are digitising.
