About This Resource

The mission for this site is to be THE “go to” resource for all things AI in the cybersecurity space. It features profiles of vendors who have been curated by Richard Stiennon as being “truly AI” — to the exclusion of those who have tacked “AI” onto a legacy product for marketing purposes.

All of the vendors included in this resource are in some way foundationally or fundamentally AI. Many profiles include interviews, demos, and other broadcast quality video that provides an in depth view of who they are and what they do.

The resource also includes ongoing discussions via both vendor and practitioners panels intended to tease apart the complex challenges in this new world.

This is the most complete market analysis of a cybersecurity sector ever produced. This site will serve as an ongoing reference for info on every moving part of AI Security.
