Tell Our Story
It started with a student, a professor and a supercomputing problem.
Nuix started in the year 2000, when a group of computer scientists, including David Sitsky, Founder and Chief Engineer at Nuix, got together with an idea: a processing engine for unstructured data, the New Universal Intelligence eXchange (NUIX).
They probably didn’t realise how important this idea would be in the future. They certainly couldn’t imagine how much data organisations would come to rely on – which now measures terabytes and petabytes. David and his team developed the binary indexing technology and commercialised it in 2006, and then patented the parallel processing technology in 2008.
The Nuix Engine solves a wide variety of data problems
At the heart of many of the world’s most critical issues lies the need to investigate digital information. World- leading businesses and government agencies turn to Nuix when they need fast, accurate answers for investigation, cybersecurity, intelligence, insider threats, litigation, regulation, privacy, risk management and more. Regardless of the size, scope or nature of the situation, dealing with these issues requires timely answers to the basic questions: who, what, where, why, when and how.
How it Works
The Nuix Engine has been optimised for unstructured and semi-structured data across virtually all forms of digitally stored information and for understanding, at a forensic level, the operations of the file and operating systems on computers and other digital devices. Our unique parallel processing and analytics capabilities deliver:
• Velocity: processing data many times faster than competing products.
• Volume: scaling to hundreds of terabytes or even petabytes of data.
• Variety: addressing far more file types, forensic artefacts and storage formats than any other technology; across structured, unstructured
and semistructured data types; and focusing on the most complex formats which often contain the largest volumes of data.
