SafeBreach

SafeBreach was founded in September 2014 by CEO Guy Bejerano and CTO Itzik Kotler in Tel Aviv.[8] Prior to founding the company, Bejerano had worked as a chief information security officer and Kotler had spent time in the Israel Defense Force's technology unit as a hacker.[1] In July 2015, the company raised $4 million in seed funding from an investor group led by angel investor, Shlomo Kramer, and Sequoia Capital.[8][9][10]

In July 2016, the company raised an additional $15 million in series A funding from existing investors along with participation from new investors Hewlett-Packard Enterprise, Deutsche Telekom, and Maverick Ventures.[1][11] By this time, the company was operating in both Sunnyvale, California and Tel Aviv.[1] Around 70 percent of the company's personnel works at the Tel Aviv office (largely on research and development).[2]

SafeBreach's primary product is a continuous security validation platform that constantly runs breach simulations on a client's network to theoretically and proactively locate and remediate security issues. The platform simulates hacker breach methods such as brute force, exploits, and malware.[4][5] Using a library of hacker breach methods called the "Hacker's Playbook,"[12] SafeBreach develops potential breach scenarios specific to a client's environment and runs simulations to identify whether or not the security defenses that are in place can defend itself. There are thousands of different possible breach scenarios depending on a client's unique network setup.[1][4][6]

In February 2020, SafeBreach announced the release of two new capabilities, Risk-based Vulnerability Management Integration and Cloud Native Container Security - designed to address problems that face Security and Development teams.[13]
