## About

Based in France and founded in 2021 by its CEO, Francois Khourbiga, COO, Thomas Raffineau Marshal, and CTO, David Fountain, Defants, SAS, operates as a cyber-security software company, that offers collaborative and automated solutions used to automate the forensic data sorting and analysis processes.

As of 2023, the company has a client base that includes companies like Cyber Booster, Oracle, Microsoft, and many more.
