Ramat Gan, Israel

Cymptom proactively measures the impact of cyber risk by mapping all attack paths before they happen. The company's platform maps critical risk to the MITRE ATT&CK framework by using agentless data collection technology to continuously visualize all viable attack paths (on-prem and cloud). This technology intentionally avoids installing agents or running simulations to provide organizations with simple deployment, immediate value and always-on, pre-emptive cyber resilience to support business initiatives. Once empowered with visibility to high probable attack vectors, organizations can adopt a factual, data-driven, adversarial-based approach to mitigate security gaps. Cymptom was formed in 2019 and is based in Ramat Gan, Israel.
