Binalyze is a private cybersecurity company focused on investigation and response automation for modern security operations. Founded in 2018, it develops software that brings digital forensics into day-to-day SOC, threat hunting, and incident response workflows so teams can move from alert to evidence-backed action much faster.
Its core positioning centers on Binalyze AIR, a forensic-powered platform built to automate evidence collection, triage, analysis, and collaborative investigation across endpoint, cloud, and hybrid environments. Binalyze has expanded that platform with newer capabilities for AI-assisted investigation, cloud evidence collection, investigative eDiscovery, and browser-based threat intelligence workflows, serving enterprises, MSSPs, and incident response providers that need faster, more conclusive investigations.
Offerings, Capabilities, and Integrations
Binalyze delivers investigation automation built around rapid remote evidence collection, automated compromise assessment, threat hunting, alert validation, and collaborative case management. Its approach emphasizes forensic-level visibility rather than relying only on telemetry, helping analysts validate incidents, understand scope, and support response and recovery with greater precision.
The platform operates across Windows, Linux, macOS, and hybrid environments, with support for large-scale hunt and triage using YARA, Sigma, and osquery. Binalyze also supports automated workflows through APIs, custom webhooks, evidence repositories, and integrations with security operations tooling.
Verified integrations include Microsoft Sentinel, Microsoft 365 Defender, Splunk, IBM QRadar, Wazuh, Cortex XSOAR, ServiceNow, Cisco XDR, CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Carbon Black Cloud, Rapid7 InsightIDR, Dynatrace, Slack, and Microsoft Azure SSO and Azure cloud platform integration.
