Akash Mandal — Co-Founder
At Aurva, we are building an AI-powered data security co-pilot for the modern, cloud-native world where data is always in motion. Unlike traditional tools that only protect static storage or raise alerts after the fact, we provide real-time visibility into the entire data lifecycle—so organizations can see what data they have, how it flows, who is accessing it, and where risks emerge. We bring together data, identity, and AI security in a single runtime-first platform. By leveraging eBPF for low-latency, kernel-level monitoring, we capture every event without slowing systems down. Each action is mapped back to identity, giving teams precise context on who did what, where, and why. This context makes it possible to detect threats as they happen, enforce compliance automatically, and simplify incident response with clarity and confidence. We are reimagining data security for an era defined by distributed systems, generative AI, and complex data flows. Our mission is to give organizations the tools to not only protect their data, but to truly understand it—in real time, at scale, and with the intelligence required to stay ahead of tomorrow’s challenges.
