Corelight is a network detection and response (NDR) company founded by the creators of the open-source Zeek (formerly Bro) network security monitor. Its Open NDR Platform transforms network traffic into high-fidelity security evidence — logs, alerts, and metadata — powering threat detection, hunting, investigation, and incident response across on-premises and cloud environments. Corelight Sensors expose a comprehensive RESTful API for remote configuration and control, driven by the open-source corelight-client command-line client, with a Fleet Manager for centralized fleet management. Backed by Accel and General Catalyst, Corelight is listed on the FedRAMP Marketplace (In Process, Moderate).
