In our hyper-connected, cyber-dependent world, data is generated in high volumes and high variety. And it moves at extreme velocities. Analyzing that big data in motion is key to securing critical cyber-physical infrastructures. We are a world leader in developing solutions that process, analyze and correlate big data as it streams, enabling clients to identify and address threats in real time.

Integrated cyber-physical infrastructures generate a wide variety of big data in motion. Our compute appliance, Kairos™, connects to networked infrastructures and collects the data moving across them.

Using the IBM InfoSphere Streams technology platform, Kairos then processes that data in real time at thousands of megabytes per second so that it can be thoroughly assessed.

As the data streams through Kairos' processing core, our code analyzes it in real time — flagging anomalies and threats, correlating those threats and authenticating them.

In less than a second, Kairos then acts on those threats — notifying personnel, shutting down systems and/or launching other counter measures.

Founder Alex Philp discusses why analyzing high-volume, high-variety data as it streams is vital to securing cyber-physical infrastructures.

TerraEchos is an official IBM Premier Business Partner, working closely with IBM on the systemic integration of InfoSphere Streams technology as a core data processing component for the Kairos and Adelos™ systems.

TerraEchos chose Streams to process massive amounts of digital acoustic and associated sensor streams in a robust, scalable and parallel manner.

Streams allows Kairos and Adelos to deliver actionable intelligence across the security horizon.

About Streams:

IBM InfoSphere Streams enables continuous and extremely fast analysis of massive volumes of information-in-motion to help improve business insights and decision-making. InfoSphere Streams radically extends the state of the art in information processing by simultaneously addressing several technical challenges, including:

- Sub-millisecond response times to events.
- Continuous analysis of data at rates significantly higher than existing technologies.
- Support for structured as well as unstructured data forms.
- High availability and strong security and confidentiality.
