Giving malware analysts an edge against adversaries
We started Threatray to create the world’s most advanced and effective malware threat search and analytics engine. We achieved this mission by combining data-based and algorithmic technologies to go beyond the limitations of existing malware analysis solutions. We empower enterprise security, threat intelligence and incident response teams to rapidly detect, investigate and disrupt attacks that others miss.
Practical tools, grounded in research
Threatray’s core technology is the result of years of advanced research into the nature of malicious code. By diving deep into the data and applying machine-learning technology, we developed methodologies to make massive malware repositories and feeds searchable, correlating relationships between known and unknown threats. So human analysts can act quickly, efficiently and effectively.
European innovation, global Impact
Threatray is based in Switzerland, recognized as a center of technological research and innovation. Our team includes malware experts with extensive, front-line experience combatting threats to enterprises of all sizes. While our infrastructure is based in Europe, our technology gives organizations worldwide a powerful tool for defending against the growing, global malware threat.
Guided by a group of INFOSEC innovators
Threatray is led and advised by a team of accomplished professionals with extensive experience in information security, technology development and commercialization, and enterprise management.
