CyberOwl — CyberOwl develops an innovative early warning system for attacks through real-time monitoring of high-value targets for malicious behavior. The technology, based on research shortlisted for the Lloyd’s Science of Risk Prize 2015, is aimed at addressing the challenges of increasingly anonymous and persistent threats to rapidly-expanding globalnetworks, particularly in the wake of Smart Cities and the Internet of Things. The system raises early warning on network assets for possible undesirable activity, by applying a Bayesian-based framework to systematically analyze indicators associated with early stages of such activity. This approach dramatically reduces the processing overheads of monitoring. The benefits to the security operation include scalability to networks exceeding 1 billion devices, providing earlier visibility of risk and improving prioritization and decision-making in deploying countermeasures. CyberOwl is developing its minimum viable product and is looking for two or three strategic industry design partners for validation, verification, and further development. The ideal design partner would provide access to real-world security problems in a large network, high-volume data environment.CyberOwl was founded on 2016 and is headquartered in London, England.
