Dr Karim Ganame

Doctor in computer security, Karim Ganame has 18 years of experience in IT, including 16 in the field of information security.

After working for several years as a senior information security advisor in large companies, he founded the company StreamScan.

With a strong focus on R&D and innovation, StreamScan has brought to market Quebec’s first computer intrusion detection system (SDI). This tool, called CDS, uses Artificial Intelligence (AI) to detect anomalies and next-generation cyber threats that target traditional computer networks (IT) as well as manufacturing/industrial environments (OT, IOT). The cyber threats detected by the CDS are then automatically blocked in order to minimize their impacts.  StreamScan’s CDS has been selected as an innovation by the federal government of Canada.
