The company said the tracker would help companies continuously identify, organise, track and protect information assets, including undermanaged, unstructured and dark data.

Using AI, and a small number of exemplar files, MinerEye learns, detects and categorises unspecified types of information – for example, it can detect and group sensitive contracts, customer complaints, log files, corporate videos, or legacy employee information.

It claims this can reduce data storage costs, fast-track cloud migration, continuously protect against security breaches and ensure regulatory compliance such as for GDPR.

MinerEye CEO and co-founder Yaniv Avidan said: "Companies cannot protect, manage or use information they can't find. Using our Interpretive AI^TM, MinerEye fuses computer vision and machine learning to track information at the byte and pixel level, which no other solution has achieved."
