Why We Made Crogl Available as a Free Download

Co-Founder and CEO, Crogl

I spoke with more than 30 organizations last week across government and commercial sectors.
Every one of them is trying to determine how AI will change their risk profile and their security operations over the next several years.
They are evaluating technologies and identifying partners that understand the realities of operating in highly constrained environments.
The conversation has shifted to implementation.
Crogl is an AI platform for security operations, built to run on-premises, in air-gapped networks, and inside the environments where it matters most. We made it available as a free download. This is why.
Many of Crogl's customers operate some of the most important infrastructure in the world.
Security leaders are looking for measurable outcomes that reduce risk, accelerate their teams, and manage costs. Organizations now face more choices than ever before for AI SOC platforms. Evaluating those technologies should not require a lengthy procurement process.
Security practitioners are trying to understand how AI can be applied to the problems they face every day.
These questions cannot be answered through product demonstrations, analyst reports, or secondhand opinions. They require direct experience.
Everyone who downloads Crogl has direct access to the Crogl engineering team through our community Slack channel.
I have worked in the nuclear weapons complex. I have worked at one of the largest banks in the world.
The organizations carrying the greatest responsibility have often had the fewest options.
We reject that idea.
Now they have a choice.
We built Crogl on a belief: technology should work the way our customers work.
We believe organizations with the highest operational constraints should have access to the most capable and most secure technologies available.
