Can you please give an overview of Corelight’s operations and offerings?

Corelight provides solutions based on an open-source software project called “Zeek” formerly known as Bro.

Created by co-founder Dr. Vern Paxson more than two decades ago, Zeek is being used by thousands of organisations around the world; taught by technology firms such as SANS and Cisco as part of their security training curriculum; and incorporated into dozens of commercial security products.

As an open-source software, many people contribute to the project. However, all of the core developers on the Zeek project work for Corelight, which gives us a strategic advantage in the market.
