We’re excited and delighted to present HTCD, a cloud security SaaS that has been built on the backbone of generative AI tech from the first line of code. Our goal was to flip the industry model on its head, providing significant cost savings, a simplified security framework, and natural language queries, all driven by AI and without a single byte of data leaving the user’s cloud.

AI-first, Security for All

That’s our tagline, our motto, our mission, and the words team HTCD lives by. The objective is simple. Cloud security is intricate, and multifaceted, and can get convoluted beyond recognition in the blink of an eye. While other security solutions have baked in AI as an afterthought, a perfunctory cherry on the top of the security cake, we wanted AI to be the key ingredient in this recipe. In the sponge, in the layer of cream that forms the center, folded deep within the ganache, and generously sprinkled as the garnish on the top.

Shortcomings in the Security Space

Different tools for different cloud environments (as Microsoft reports, an average of 75 tools used by enterprises) with little to no cross-cloud observability, a well-documented shortage of skilled analysts (per TechTarget, a 37% shortage exists in the cloud security space) to parse and prioritize threat-hunting results, or generate tool-centric language queries, and the overwhelming spends associated with cloud security (an average of $40 million in spends for solutions based on our research and $4.5 million per data breach as reported by IBM), are just a few of the most pressing problems in cloud security.

The AI-powered Answer

By building our framework with AI integrated from day one, we’re providing a solution that mitigates these issues. Shaan Mulchandani, our CEO has been a mainstay in the cybersecurity industry for over a decade and has been intimately familiar with (and often frustrated by) these industry shortcomings. It’s not surprising to learn that he was the key driver behind this AI-led approach. Backed by a crack team of intelligent and innovative engineers, the approach has gone into overdrive. Generative AI does all the heavy lifting for HTCD’s users, and no one has accused our AI of skipping leg day.

Here are the advantages of taking an AI-led approach to cloud security:

• Observability: A single pane of glass view across cloud service providers without ingesting data helps bring down setup times for weeks and months to fifteen minutes.
• Detection: Natural language querying means security teams don’t need to consist of a battalion of engineers fluent in SQL, KQL, or the ever-growing list of other QL derivatives. These detections can be worded to be as specific as needed.
• Hunting: Threat hunting is automated, with out-of-the-box playbooks mapped to industry-leading frameworks and consolidated into actionable risk reports. The AI also generates insights based on threat-hunting reports and provides mitigation recommendations.
• Response: AI-powered intelligent prioritization helps security teams effectively manage 1000s of daily alerts (relative to the organization’s size) by crawling, sorting, and reporting them based on severity.

In a Nutshell

As we’ve covered in the past, the impact of AI is significant on cloud security solutions. We invoke a 3x boost to analyst productivity, 90% in savings, and of course 100% sovereignty over data. And none of this would have been possible if we merely adopted AI. Instead, HTCD was born in it, molded by it. The results are astounding (even if we do say so ourselves). You don’t have to take our word for it though, we’d be more than happy to schedule a demo so you can get hands-on with the unmatched capabilities of HTCD AI-first cloud security.
