31 CONCEPT (31C), a UAE-based cybersecurity innovator, has announced its acquisition of Canadian firm Xynthor AI Software, a specialist in AI-native Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions. This strategic move is set to create a comprehensive, AI-aware security platform by merging Xynthor’s advanced DLP technology with 31C’s expertise in Deep Packet Intelligence (DPI) and corporate security.
Addressing the AI Security Gap
The acquisition directly addresses the growing vulnerabilities in corporate security created by the widespread adoption of generative AI tools like ChatGPT. Traditional DLP systems are often unable to manage the dynamic and context-rich data flows of modern AI workflows, creating significant security gaps. The integrated platform from 31C and Xynthor is designed to safeguard against these new risks, offering enhanced protection for sensitive corporate data.
A New Category of AI-Native Security
By combining their respective strengths, the companies aim to pioneer a new class of security solutions. Xynthor’s technology brings several key advantages, including NLP-powered detection of sensitive data, a privacy-centric air-gapped architecture, and context-aware intelligence that significantly reduces false positives. The enhanced platform will deliver real-time policy management and adaptive threat detection to mitigate risks associated with both public and private large language models. “Traditional methods cannot manage today’s context-aware AI data flows,” said Misha Hanin, CEO of 31C. “Through this acquisition, we are pioneering an entirely new category of AI-native security solutions.”
Global Ambitions and Operations
The acquisition positions 31C as a global leader in the emerging field of AI-native security. Both companies will continue their operations from the UAE and Canada, creating a synergistic environment to accelerate innovation and expand their global footprint. This move aligns with 31C’s performance-based growth strategy, aiming to provide robust security solutions that can anticipate future cybersecurity challenges in an increasingly AI-driven world.
