Gem Security has emerged from a period of stealth, launching its Cloud TDIR platform and landing $11m in seed funding from Team8.
The company launched its Threat Detection, Investigation and Response platform enables organisations to optimise coverage through a continuous incident readiness dashboard and combines real-time cloud-native threat detection based on behavioural analytics and tactics, techniques and procedures.
The platform also enriches context across the entirety of cloud infrastructure for instant root cause analysis and isolates risks swiftly using cloud-native entity quarantine capabilities.
Gem Security helps organisations implement a continuous, risk-based program to manage their threat exposure.
The firm offers a platform that leverages existing infrastructure and solutions while offering unique automated detection, investigation and response capabilities purposely-built for cloud environments.
Gem Security supports all major infrastructure platforms – AWS, Azure, Google Cloud and Kubernetes. Gem’s platform integrates with leading platforms like identity providers, source code repositories and secrets managers, leveraging the additional data for context analysis. Gem Security is already working with companies ranging from mid-market to Fortune 500.
Arie Zilberstein – Gem Security co-founder and CEO – said, “Most cloud security solutions focus on building a wall that is as tall as possible to make sure the bad guys stay out. That sounds good in theory. In practice, however, no wall is ever going to be tall enough.
“We offer a more realistic approach, starting from the fact that cloud environments are and will remain imperfect. If it’s perfect, it’s only for five minutes, and then it’s going to be imperfect again.
“Minimizing the potential for intrusion is only half the story. When someone jumps over the wall, we don’t just raise an alarm. Gem’s platform will empower your team to find and stop the intruder, automating your incident response and ensuring there is no escalation. Where others end, we begin.”
Sentra, a cloud data-focused security company, has scored $30m in a Series A funding round led by Standard Investments.
