How DeepTempo is different

The Detection Layer that reveals what NDRs and SIEMs can't see

DeepTempo adds an intelligent detection layer that analyzes operational telemetry — from flow logs and application behaviors to WAF data and threat intelligence — to surface malicious activity hidden inside what looks like normal operations.

The challenge

Modern attacks evade traditional detection

Attackers hide inside normal looking activity. Slow privilege drift, low-volume movement, and quiet C2 traffic blend into what rules, signatures, baselines, and NDR heuristics treat as benign.

Rules and signatures

Single event triggers miss multi step behavior and timing differences.

Baselines and UEBA

Drift widens thresholds and hides gradual identity misuse.

Correlation and SIEM logic

Fragmented views lose the sequence and distort intent.

Packet and NDR heuristics

Encrypted traffic and low frequency lateral movement produce no anomalies.

OUR approach

Deep learning FTW

DeepTempo delivers a detection layer that transforms operational telemetry into intent signals mapped to MITRE TTPs — exposing attacker behavior long before traditional systems react.

Foundation model for threat detection

The LogLM is DeepTempo's vertical foundation model, purpose-built for security. It projects groups of log records into embeddings that capture structure and meaning. Classifiers then use these embeddings to assign MITRE TTPs.

  • No rules, baselines, or tuning required
  • Embeddings expose relationships hidden in raw flow logs
  • Classifier provides precise TTP labels for faster triage

From rules and anomalies to intent

Most systems either match patterns (rules, signatures) or flag deviations (UEBA, ML). DeepTempo's LogLM interprets what an attacker is trying to accomplish, not whether it looks unusual.

  • Detects intent behind the activity, not surface symptoms
  • Works even when traffic looks normal or rule-compliant
  • Reveals progression early across recon, pivots, and movement

Sees early attacker progression

By turning groups of logs into embeddings and labeling them with MITRE TTPs, DeepTempo exposes attacker movement that blends into normal operations. This makes early-stage activity visible long before escalation.

  • Detects recon, credential use, pivots and lateral movement early
  • No rule packs, signatures, or tuning
  • Reveals malicious intent in normal looking traffic

Learns continuously and adapts

DeepTempo’s detection layer adapts as services, workloads, and identities change, without rules, thresholds, or retraining. Existing detections are augmented with end to end validation and adaptation.

  • Adapts automatically as attack behaviors evolve
  • Measures accuracy of both existing detections and LogLM detections
  • Maintains high accuracy over time

Baselines and UEBA

What they look at:
Behavior drift, thresholds, deviations
What they miss:
Slow credential misuse and low-volume lateral movement
What DeepTempo sees:
Slow credential misuse and low-volume lateral movement

Correlation & SIEM logic

What they look at:
Fragmented events and rule chains

Common questions teams ask

Do we need to change our logging or telemetry?

No. DeepTempo works with the telemetry your environment already produces — flow logs, Layer 7 logs like SQL and WAF, and threat intelligence feeds from major vendors. No agents, sensors, or packet inspection required.

Does DeepTempo replace our SIEM or NDR?

No. DeepTempo operates as a detection layer that sits alongside your SIEM and NDR, adding intent-level signal and end to end validation of detection accuracy. You keep your existing alerts and workflows — they just get smarter and better managed.

How long until we see useful detections?

DeepTempo provides value on day one. The model operates zero-shot and gets sharper as it sees more activity.

Will this add tuning or maintenance work?

No. There are no rules, signatures, thresholds, or baselines to maintain. DeepTempo adapts automatically as environments change and will suggest and make ongoing improvements.

Why do rules and signatures miss modern attacks?

They only match what they’ve seen before. Small mutations, timing variations, or encryption evade them. DeepTempo identifies attacker intent across full activity patterns, not pattern syntax.

Why do baselines and UEBA miss slow or low-volume attacks?

Threshold drift widens what looks “normal,” hiding gradual credential misuse and quiet pivots.
DeepTempo uses stable embeddings that expose subtle misuse without relying on thresholds.

Why does SIEM correlation miss multi-step attacker progression?

Correlation works with fragmented events and must anticipate every variant. Sequence context gets lost. DeepTempo preserves semantics across activity and surfaces recon → pivot → movement early.

Why do NDR heuristics miss attacks in encrypted or low-signal traffic?

Heuristics depend on anomalies. Encryption and subtle east-west movement often show none.
DeepTempo reads flow semantics, revealing technique intent even when traffic looks benign.

How is DeepTempo different from UEBA or anomaly detection?

UEBA asks “Is this unusual?”
DeepTempo asks “What is this activity trying to accomplish?”
Intent-level analysis exposes early-stage behavior that blends into normal baselines.

Can DeepTempo detect AI-powered or rapidly mutating attacks?

Yes. AI-generated attacks mutate timing and structure to evade rules and heuristics.
DeepTempo detects attacker intent, so mutations don’t hide the underlying objective.
