About the company
Despite significant investments in cybersecurity, organizations worldwide continue to suffer from cyber breaches. Just in 2023 the number of reported data breaches in the United States grew by 78% despite organizations spending $183 billion to protect their digital services.
We believe that recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) present a unique opportunity to improve the discovery, prioritization, and remediation of vulnerabilities faster than ever before.
Our goal is to empower organizations to stay ahead of cyber criminals and nation-state threats, ensuring a safer digital environment for our community and businesses in the private, public, and government sectors.
Our team has 25+ years of experience in this space and at top tech companies, and we just recently raised our seed round from notable investors.
