What We Do
Cogility Software is a leading continuous intelligence platform that has gained recognition for its ability to turn low level data into “meaning” and to accurately predict if unwanted events are about to occur. The platform is used by our customers to stop attacks, protect data and save lives.
Cogynt:
Our product, Cogynt, is a no-code, analyst-friendly platform used to author patterns, investigate connections and create rich, real-time visuals. Cogynt is the only platform to commercialize (and patent) Hierarchical Complex Event Processing (HCEP). HCEP is the workhorse that enables Cogynt to analyze pertinent behaviors of all entities, or scenarios, over very long periods of time. This ability to track entities at scale allows Cogynt to monitor 100% of the risk surface giving operational leaders the broadest and most granular “whole picture” view of risk available on the market. We leverage the full capabilities of Apache Flink and Kafka, wrapped in a fully-supported, enterprise-grade platform.
Our History:
Cogility traces its history back to 2003 when it was founded to solve complex problems for the US military. The company was early to embrace open source technologies and in 2019, under new ownership, the company launched Cogynt. Cogynt, now the sole focus of the company, could not have achieved commercial maturity so quickly, were it not for the 20-years of “in the field” experience solving highly-complex problems. We are proud of the progress we have made so far, but we are just getting started.
Why Work With Us
At Cogility you will be seen and have your contributions matter. We are highly skilled, dedicated, and take pride in our work. We understand that success is measured by not only the individual but also by the team. We are united by our drive to succeed.
