Three co-founders of TheHive Project are pleased to announce the public launch of StrangeBee

TheHive, in combination with Cortex, is the world’s leading Open Source security incident response and active response platform. StrangeBee is the company founded by three creators of TheHive Project (here) to provide its large user base with deep expertise and a unique know-how, while continuously developing these highly popular products as well as their Ecosystem.

It all started in 2014 with three cybersecurity experts working at a major financial institution! we were part of the Computer Security Incident Response team (CSIRT). As any large organisation, this institution has experienced a massive and continuous increase of the number of security events in the recent years.

We initially struggled to find efficient tools to manage and process all those security events. Given that the speed of detection and the response time are crucial, and sometimes vital, to the organisation, we’ve made the decision to create a dedicated open source solution: TheHive.

It’s a unique platform, as it has been created and actively enriched by its own users on a daily basis. Over time, TheHive and Cortex, its sidekick since 2016, established themselves as reference open source solutions used by organisations worldwide.

These organisations express a growing need for support, professional services and advanced features.

TheHive is being used today by 500+ organisations and has been downloaded 1600+ times in the last 30 days.

Nabil, Thomas and Jérôme, three of the four co-founders of TheHive Project, have decided to answer positively to this growing demand through StrangeBee, a company that offers support, professional services as well as additional feature development to meet this growing demand.
