Castlepoint Systems

Castlepoint Systems provides an Explainable AI (XAI) platform for data governance, security, and compliance. The platform uses AI-powered auto-classification to identify, manage, and protect data across organizational systems. The solution analyzes data to detect sensitive and high-risk records, applies legislative retention rules, and ensures compliance with regulatory requirements. The company serves government agencies, higher education institutions, financial services, corporations, defense and national security organizations, and critical infrastructure providers. Two-thirds of Australian federal government portfolios use the platform. The system currently manages over 776,000 systems, 539 million items of data, and has identified over 250 million sensitive and high-risk records requiring protection. Castlepoint's technology matches records to geographic locations and regulations, supports enforcement activities and investigations, and helps organizations manage cyber security risks. The platform operates across complex information environments including emails, file systems, and various data repositories. The solution provides transparency, explainability, and contestability in AI-driven decision-making, addressing responsible AI requirements. The company focuses on helping organizations reduce data spill risks, ensure lawful data destruction, and maintain compliance with data protection regulations. Their approach emphasizes "white box" AI models that can be subject to scrutiny, contrasting with traditional "black box" machine learning systems.
