Stairwell

Stairwell is a cybersecurity company that provides a threat analysis and detection platform for enterprise security teams to investigate, hunt, and respond to attacks across their environments.

• Threat analysis and hunting platform for Security Operations (SecOps) and incident response teams (threat detection and response).
• Ingestion and long-term storage of security-relevant data and files for retrospective analysis and investigation (security data management).
• Automated and human-driven malware analysis, enrichment, and classification workflows (malware analysis).
• Support for enterprise security workflows such as threat hunting, compromise assessment, and post-incident investigation (security operations).
• Integration with existing security tools and data sources to correlate findings across an organization’s infrastructure (security integrations).

More About Stairwell

Stairwell focuses on enterprise cybersecurity by providing a platform that allows organizations to retain, analyze, and search security-relevant data and files over time. Its tools are designed for SecOps centers, incident response teams, and threat hunters that require visibility into historic and current activity across endpoints and other assets. The company emphasizes the ability to revisit past events using newly available threat intelligence so that enterprises can detect and validate threats that were not recognizable during the original event window.

The Stairwell platform (threat detection and response) supports workflows such as malware triage, threat hunting, compromise assessment, and forensic-style investigation. Security teams can upload or ingest files and related telemetry, perform automated and manual analysis, and pivot across datasets to explore Indicators of Compromise (IOC). The platform stores security artifacts for extended periods, which enables retrospective analysis when new indicators or attack techniques become known. This approach aligns with enterprise detection and response practices that depend on long-term context, including Post-Incident Review (PIR) and continuous threat hunting.

From a technical perspective, Stairwell’s offering relies on a combination of large-scale storage, indexing, and search across security data, paired with automated enrichment and classification. The platform uses techniques associated with malware analysis, static and dynamic inspection, and correlation against threat intelligence sources. These capabilities support investigation across files, hashes, and related observables, and help security teams understand where and how a particular threat may exist or may have existed inside the environment.

In enterprise environments, Stairwell is positioned alongside categories such as Endpoint Detection And Response (EDR), Extended detection and response (XDR), and threat intelligence platforms, but is oriented toward long-term file-centric analysis and threat hunting rather than only real-time alerting. Organizations can integrate Stairwell with existing security stacks so that alerts, logs, or endpoint artifacts from other tools can be preserved and analyzed in one environment. This supports use cases such as validating whether a newly disclosed malware family or campaign was present in the enterprise at any point in the retained history.

Within a directory or marketplace taxonomy, Stairwell fits into threat detection and response, malware analysis, and SecOps tooling. Its focus on historical analysis, file-centric workflows, and integration with existing security tools makes it relevant to teams that manage incident response, threat hunting, and ongoing monitoring in complex enterprise infrastructures.
