Hilt

Hilt is a cybersecurity startup whose platform monitors how data moves across cloud infrastructure, endpoints and networks. Kernel-level sensors stream activity data to graph neural networks that flag and stop anomalous behavior in real time, even when the actor has legitimate access, with deployment running entirely inside customer environments for teams in regulated or performance-sensitive sectors such as high-frequency trading, banking and healthcare. Founded by CEO William Cielen with CTO Alex Genest and founding engineer Zin Bitar, the company is headquartered in Chattanooga, Tennessee.
