Why Qevlar AI is a startup to watch
SOC teams are overwhelmed by both the volume of alerts they must handle and the lack of context around those alerts. This not only wastes time and resources, but also increases the likelihood of false positives and negatives.
Qevlar AI intends to streamline this process through AI and automation. The startup’s autonomous alert investigation platform ingests alerts from security information and event management (SIEM) and endpoint detection and response (EDR) tools and uses built-in generative AI to analyze that data, replacing much of what is traditionally a manual process.
