MixMode AI Cyber Defense

MixMode provides AI-powered cybersecurity solutions using a patented third-wave, context-aware artificial intelligence approach. The platform delivers self-supervised, real-time threat detection for both known and unknown threats across cloud, hybrid, and on-premises environments. The company's technology automatically learns and adapts to dynamic environments without requiring pre-defined rules or signatures.

The platform is designed for large enterprises with big data workloads, including organizations in critical infrastructure sectors such as water utilities, as well as the US Department of Defense and US Intelligence Community. MixMode's third-wave AI was developed by co-founder Dr. Igor Mezic, a professor of mechanical engineering at UCSB who has worked with DARPA and the DoD on autonomous AI systems. The technology uses operator theoretic, data-driven approaches to dynamical systems theory.

MixMode's solutions address operational technology security challenges, including protection of SCADA systems, PLCs, and Human Machine Interfaces (HMIs) in industrial environments. The platform operates at scale to handle large data volumes and provides continuous monitoring capabilities. The company is backed by PSG Equity and Entrada Ventures and is headquartered in Santa Barbara, California.
