ProQueSys was founded to bring to market a new and powerful data correlation technology, named Process Query Systems. Process Query Systems are generic correlation platforms that enable the user to find patterns in stored data that might not be readily apparent. Specifically, if you have some knowledge of the relationships in the data, a PQS can use this knowledge to find behavioral patterns, and detect changes in behavioral patterns over time, no matter what the data actually is. A PQS is therefore application independent. Currently, ProQueSys is using their technology to create two software products that go hand-in-hand, but can be used independently, for analyzing computer software behavior inside the computer, as well as on the network.
