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
