Security within the customer’s infrastructure

Regulated institutions can face restrictions on moving security data and operations into the public cloud. Cylake is designing its platform for on-premises and private-cloud environments, bringing infrastructure data and context into a shared foundation for security workflows.

Developing with design partners

The company plans to work with selected customers as it builds the platform. Its initial financing supports that development phase; commercial product availability was anticipated in early 2027 at the time of the announcement.
