Overview
Confluera provides a real-time attack interception and defense platform for enterprises to protect their digital infrastructure. It monitors network activity in real time, detects suspicious behavior, and automatically responds to block or contain threats to interrupt intrusions. It differentiates itself with deterministic, automated, real-time interception and continuous protection under a subscription, reducing dwell time and manual incident handling. Its goal is to help enterprises defend against sophisticated cyber threats with ongoing, real-time protection across large networks.
