Research origins

SATARK originated as security research and is now being rebuilt as an open-source framework.

Themes carried into the open-source rebuild

  • Automated analysis and ranking of known threats
  • Insider threat and behavioral analytics
  • Transparent / explainable scoring
  • Multi-domain detection on a shared architecture
  • Malware analysis and web application security techniques
