What does BforeAI do? BforeAI autonomously maps and predicts malicious infrastructure by ingesting massive datasets, analyzing Internet metadata, and setting up baselines to detect anomalies and deter them before they become attacks. This capability gives customers a preemptive active defense posture, allowing security teams to stop attacks before execution.

BforeAI specializes in predictive attack intelligence and automated digital risk protection services. The company’s goal is to proactively safeguard data, IT/OT networks, digital assets, customers, employees, and brand reputation. Using behavioral predictive intelligence, PreCrime monitors over 96% of the Internet to stay ahead of cyber threats, empowering organizations to effectively preempt risks days to weeks before the attack.

The BforeAI PreCrime subscription offering features Intelligence and Brand solutions designed for predicting, preempting, and deterring malicious campaigns before they impact your business. Munich Re guarantees a 10x contract value performance guarantee. This learning technology constantly improves anomaly identification to reduce false positives below 0.05%, enabling organizations to stop attacks in less than seven minutes.
