Exciting news from our cybersecurity ecosystem! Aim Security, founded by Matan G. and Adir G., has been acquired by Cato Networks in their first-ever acquisition. We're proud to have backed Aim Security. Aim Security distinguished itself early by recognizing that AI's unique attack vectors couldn't be addressed by retrofitting traditional security tools. Instead, they uniquely built solutions from the ground up to secure AI across all enterprise use cases. What makes Aim Security exceptional: - Elite founding team with deep experience from Google and Unit 8200 - Groundbreaking research capabilities - they discovered "EchoLeak," the first zero-click vulnerability in Microsoft 365 Copilot - Holistic platform securing AI applications you use, build, and run - Enterprise-grade solutions trusted by Fortune 500 companies This acquisition perfectly aligns two market leaders: Cato Networks's industry-leading SASE platform with Aim Security's cutting-edge AI security expertise. Together, they're positioned to secure the next wave of enterprise AI transformation. https://lnkd.in/erHnKmfN Joydeep Bhattacharyya #AISecurity #SASE #Enterprise #Cybersecurity #Investment
