Chorology, Inc.
Chorology, Inc. is a San Jose-based data security and compliance startup that uses a Deep-AI 'knowledge encoding' engine - rather than conventional machine learning - to automatically discover, classify, and map an enterprise's sensitive data across structured and unstructured repositories. Its flagship platform, CAPE (Compliance and Posture Enforcer), aims to give organizations a continuous, mandate-agnostic view of where regulated data lives so they can enforce data security posture and meet frameworks like GDPR, CCPA, and HIPAA. Founded by serial cybersecurity entrepreneur Tarique Mustafa, the company emerged from stealth in July 2024 with $9M in funding and a roster of early Fortune 500 users.
