Reposify, a leading company in the cyber field that provides a platform for managing and protecting external attack surfaces (External Attack Surface Management), announced today (Tuesday) that it has raised $ 8.5 million. The initial round of funding was led by two American funds, Joule Ventures and First Rays Venture Partners, along with private angels specializing in cyber.
The Reposify platform enables security teams to monitor, prioritize and manage all digital assets exposed to the Internet and potentially linked to intranet networks; The digital assets identified by the platform are scattered throughout the cloud, in subsidiary systems and even in third-party vendor systems. Reposify was announced this year by Gartner as a leading solution and was even included in the 2021 Emerging Vendors list in the field of outdoor attack surface management (EASM).
The demand for monitoring and tracking digital assets exposed to the Internet and their associated vulnerabilities has increased dramatically due to the growth in the use of SaaS software, applications and cloud services. In addition, in recent years the lines of separation between work and home have been blurring and even more so since the outbreak of the corona plague which has brought many workers around the world to take work with them home. The corporate network has become more vulnerable and has many vulnerabilities that are unknown to security teams. Reposify has developed an algorithm that detects digital assets exposed to the Internet and automatically associates them with the organization to which they belong, in real time.
