About

Formal builds a protocol-aware data security platform. It functions as a reverse proxy to secure access to databases, APIs, and infrastructure, providing visibility and control over data flows within a network.

The Formal Platform parses over 15 wire protocols and evaluates security policies in real time. It is designed to operate with sub-10ms of overhead and requires no modifications to existing applications or the integration of an SDK. The company's work involves deep technical domains including reverse proxy architecture, wire protocol parsing, and real-time policy evaluation.

Formal targets modern companies seeking to enforce data security controls at the network layer. The platform is built to intercept and analyze traffic without disrupting existing application architectures, positioning it as an infrastructure-level security solution.
