Darktrace

Darktrace was founded in 2013 by experts in AI and cyber defense, with headquarters in Cambridge, UK and a second R&D center in The Hague, Netherlands. The company has over 2,400 employees and serves approximately 10,000 customers across 110 countries. The company provides the Darktrace ActiveAI Security Platform, which uses self-learning AI technology to detect and respond to cyber threats. The platform operates across multiple environments including cloud, email, identities, operational technology (OT), endpoints, and networks. The AI learns from each organization's specific digital ecosystem to provide customized security based on continuous visibility. The platform offers three main capabilities: preemptive visibility into security posture, real-time detection of known and unknown threats, and autonomous response functionality. The technology is designed to identify threats without relying on predefined signatures or rules, instead learning normal patterns of behavior for each customer environment. Darktrace's AI Research Center has developed technology backed by over 200 patents and pending applications. The company serves organizations across multiple sectors including critical infrastructure, public sector agencies, healthcare, financial services, education, and media. Darktrace maintains partnerships with AWS and Microsoft, and was named 2024 Microsoft UK Partner of the Year. The company is ISO/IEC 27001:2013 certified and has published guidance on responsible AI use in cybersecurity. Darktrace offers training and certification programs through Darktrace Academy, delivered in over 10 languages.
