Otta's take
Xav Kearney
CTO of Otta
Confluera is a leading provider of cloud cybersecurity response, that is designed to help organizations find security attacks going on inside of corporate infrastructures. In early 2023, Confluera was acquired by XM Cyber, expanding the latter's Continuous Exposure Management platform.
With competitors like Looking Glass Cyber Solutions, Confluera sets itself apart by being the only company that offers real-time sequencing of various attack steps found in modern cyberattacks. This approach is patented, and its machine learning technology provides detection accuracy that has previously not been possible - making it a prominent innovator in the space.
