Who we are

Built by people who spent fifteen years defending nations.

Cartalys is an early-warning intelligence platform. We detect malicious infrastructure in its formation phase — before it reaches your users, your brand, or your network.

Our story

Four chapters that explain why we exist.

01

A truth we kept hitting.

For fifteen years our founders worked inside national security — CERTs, intelligence units, telecoms. The pattern was always the same: attackers arrived with better reconnaissance than defenders had about their own perimeter. Post-incident reports kept saying the same sentence: the infrastructure was visible, weeks in advance, if anyone had been looking.

02

The platform we wished existed.

We tried to buy it. Every vendor sold us indicators of compromise — trailing signals, useful only after the damage had started. Nobody was watching the formation phase. So in 2024 we started building the platform we always wanted.

03

Proprietary probes, one datalake.

Cartalys runs its own global collection fabric. Our proprietary probes feed a 150B-event datalake that ingests roughly 500M new events a day. We don't resell public feeds; we don't depend on anyone else's telemetry. The signal is ours, and it's early.

04

Built for defenders, shipped with defenders.

Every customer deployment starts with an operator walkthrough. We measure our precision publicly because alert fatigue is the product bug that matters most. Our job is to give defenders a 7–30 day head start — and then get out of the way.

What we value

Six principles we actually operate by.

01

Foresight

Every decision asked: does this give our users more time to act?

02

Trust

Transparent reasoning, source citations, audit-ready deployments.

03

Intelligence

Evidence over opinion. Signal over narrative. Numbers, named.

04

Precision

We measure our precision publicly. Alert fatigue is a product bug.

05

Control

Your data stays where you put it. Sovereign deployments, by default.

06

Scale

500M+ events absorbed daily into a 150B-event datalake. Global.

Intelligence that exists before the threat does

You can react faster.
Or you can already be ready.

Cartalys operates ahead of disruption by analyzing early digital signals and emerging patterns — so risks can be understood and addressed while they are still theoretical, not operational.
