About Darktrace
Darktrace sells an AI cybersecurity platform built on Adaptive AI. The platform learns the normal behaviour of each organisation and flags deviations, rather than relying on static rules or threat data from other firms. It covers AI systems, people and infrastructure, including networks, cloud, OT, email, identity and endpoints. The company says it has 10,000 customers across 110 countries. Its main products are Darktrace / SECURE AI, Darktrace / HYBRID NETWORK and Darktrace / EMAIL. These address AI deployment and development, network, cloud and OT visibility and response, and email threats such as phishing and account compromise. Darktrace also offers managed services, including a 24/7 SOC, managed detection and response, managed threat detection, security operations support and proactive health optimisation. It holds ISO 27001, ISO 27018, ISO 42001, IRAP and Cyber Essentials certifications.
