Techwards Supports PolymerHQ in Building an AI-Powered Anomaly Detection Platform for Enhanced Data Security
PolymerHQ, a leading data loss prevention (DLP) company, provides advanced solutions to protect sensitive corporate data across platforms like Google Drive and Microsoft OneDrive. Their product enables clients to create customizable policies for data control, such as blocking unauthorized file sharing or logging downloads. To enhance their product, PolymerHQ aimed to incorporate AI-driven anomaly detection and advanced analytics. Techwards partnered with PolymerHQ to develop this AI feature and set up the necessary infrastructure, enabling the company to gain a competitive edge in the market.
Problem Statement
PolymerHQ faced several challenges in integrating AI-driven features into their DLP product. While they had a strong core team, they lacked expertise in implementing advanced AI and data engineering solutions. Additionally, they needed to develop a robust anomaly detection system capable of identifying unusual user behavior, such as a significant spike in file downloads, which could indicate a potential data breach. Without the necessary expertise, they were unable to build the required platform and infrastructure on their own.
Solutions
Techwards provided a comprehensive solution, focusing on developing the AI infrastructure and anomaly detection platform:
- AI Infrastructure Setup: Designed and implemented the foundational infrastructure required for AI-driven solutions, ensuring seamless integration with data cloud.
- Anomaly Detection System: Developed an AI-powered anomaly detection system capable of identifying outliers, such as unusual spikes in user activity (e.g., a user typically downloading 2 files per day suddenly downloading 100 files).
- Platform Development: Developed the platform, enabling PolymerHQ to leverage prebuilt capabilities for forecasting, future predictions, and advanced analytics.
- Customizable Policy Management: Enhanced the existing DLP product by adding customizable AI-driven policies, allowing clients to create and enforce complex rules for data control.
Outcome
With Techwards’ support, PolymerHQ successfully transformed their DLP product into an AI-powered solution with advanced anomaly detection capabilities. Key results included:
- Enhanced Security: The anomaly detection system provided real-time alerts for potential data breaches, improving overall data security.
- Increased Market Competitiveness: The new AI-driven feature gave PolymerHQ a marketing edge, positioning them as an innovative leader in the DLP market.
- Efficient Data Management: Implemented advanced data management and analytics capabilities to handle large volumes of data efficiently.
- Scalable AI Infrastructure: Developed a scalable platform providing a strong foundation for future AI-driven features.
