Haystax Technology’s Haystax Analytics Platform™ has been named a finalist in the Security Analytics product category for the 2017 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards.

The awards honor individuals, products and companies that demonstrate excellence, innovation and leadership in information security. Haystax received more than 1,500 votes, by far the most votes of any nominee in the Security Analytics category.

Haystax is known for taking a unique model-driven approach to security analytics. The Haystax platform blends qualitative expert judgments captured in Bayesian models with other artificial intelligence techniques to find threat ‘signals’ buried inside multiple data sources, ranking these threats in priority order and instantly displaying actionable information and delivering alerts to those who need to know.

Besides having been chosen for its innovative approach and effectiveness at top-tier financial institutions and large federal government agencies — including successful deployment in the nation’s largest insider threat program — the Haystax platform has also been proven at scale. In the state of Florida, Haystax security analytics help protect some 2.5 million students at over 6,000 schools. And in California, the Haystax-powered Common Operating Picture (Cal COP) for Threat Awareness protects 85% of the state’s population across eight major urban areas.

Winners of the 2017 Cybersecurity Excellence Awards will be announced on February 7.
