Bold Security for Manufacturing

Real-time data protection for the modern endpoint

Protect the designs, process data, and supplier terms your margin depends on.
Bold runs AI on the device to classify data by meaning and stop risky actions before data leaves.

Why the endpoint

In the AI era, more and more work happens directly on the device. Especially engineering and program work.
Drawings get downloaded, process data gets reworked, and design packages move between suppliers, creating exposure.

An engineer uploads a CAD assembly into a public AI tool to speed up a design review.

A program manager copies supplier pricing to a personal drive before a plant visit.

A process engineer leaves for a competitor with tooling specifications already copied.

A buyer emails a drawing package to the wrong contact at a contract manufacturer.

The endpoint is the one layer where data sensitivity, intention, and the action itself come together.
Controlling risk there is what makes prevention possible before a design reaches a competitor.

Where Bold fits

Bold runs alongside the security investments you already have and reaches the data risk those tools cannot.

Replace legacy DLP
Regex-based tools catch part numbers and miss CAD assemblies, process recipes, and tooling specifications. False positives at that volume force teams to turn blocking off.
Consolidate insider threat tooling
Behavior, data sensitivity, and the action itself arrive in one view instead of three.
Unify forensic context
Investigation-ready evidence is captured as it happens and stored in your own cloud tenant.
Establish a foundational AI control
Govern how designs, process data, and supplier terms are accessed, copied, and shared into AI and productivity tools on the device.

What Bold delivers

Real-time prevention

Accidental exposure, insider misuse, and email misdelivery stop at the moment of action, not after.

‍

Find every copy, prove it is gone

When a program closes out, Bold answers from the fleet instead of from an email asking people to check. Renamed and compressed copies are still found, because lineage follows the file rather than the filename.

Classification for industrials

CAD assemblies, bills of materials, process recipes, tooling specifications, and technical documentation, classified by meaning, not pattern matching.

On-device analysis

No file content is sent anywhere, so proprietary design data is never exposed to a third-party cloud in order to be classified.

Evidence you control

Evidence is encrypted and stored in your own cloud tenant. Your keys, your access.

Full investigation context

Behavioral history, data interactions, and lineage arrive already attached to the incident.

Personal account distinction

Bold distinguishes a corporate account from a personal one inside the same approved AI tool, on the desktop.

How Bold works

Bold runs AI locally to understand data, analyze intention, and prevent risk in real time.

See every drawing and design file

Bold lives on the endpoint and sees everything: every channel, every app, every CAD file, every engineering workflow. No API gaps, no blind spots, including the desktop apps network tools cannot see.

Know what the file is and why it is moving

Bold's AI classifies data by meaning and reads the intention behind every action: whether a file is a released drawing or a working design, where it came from, who is moving it, their role, and their risk profile.

Stop the design package before it leaves

Bold acts in real time, redirecting a drawing set headed for a personal account or blocking a bill of materials on its way to an unmanaged AI tool. Most risk is stopped before it ever becomes an alert to triage.

Investigate without rebuilding the story

When something does need review, Bold has the full picture: what the data was, who moved it, where it went. Investigations that took days close in minutes.

Built for controlled production environments

Even in tightly controlled engineering environments, risk still appears at the moment of action:

Design and process data accessed or shared locally

Approved tools used in ways policy cannot anticipate

New AI tools adopted before security teams hear about them

Exception users operating with elevated or deviated access

Engineers and buyers working with suppliers every day

Misaddressed emails sent under time pressure

The outcome

Bold prevents the most common and most consequential forms of exposure at the moment they happen, gives insider risk investigations the data context they have been missing, and protects design and process data at rest and in motion on every device. Control improves without a cost to performance, privacy, or the controls you already run.
