Confluera is a cybersecurity company that is interested in providing an autonomous detection and response platform that stops attackers from navigating personal infrastructure. The company was founded by Abhijit Ghosh, Bipul Sinha, and Niloy Mukherjee in 2018, in Palo Alto, California, United States.
The company was started to provide cyber kill chain tracking that deterministically stops and remediates cyber-threats in real-time. The company looks to provide their platform in order to connect malicious activities. Their platform watches across a customer's infrastructure, locate issues and recommends ways to mitigate the attack. This technology can be used for audit trailing, blocking attacks.
