Cyvore is a cybersecurity company focused on protecting digital workspaces against advanced threats, with a primary emphasis on proactive defense against phishing, fraud, and social engineering attacks that target modern communication channels beyond traditional email. Founded in 2024 and based in Tel Aviv, Cyvore addresses the rapidly evolving threat landscape where attacks increasingly exploit human trust across platforms like Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Slack, WhatsApp, CRM systems, and more, rather than just targeting networks or endpoints.
What makes Cyvore different?
- Centralized Workspace Security: Cyvore provides a unified security layer that covers the entire spectrum of employee digital interactions, including messaging, video calls, and collaborative workspaces—not just email.
- AI-Driven Technology: The company employs a set of proprietary technologies that leverage artificial intelligence for real-time, preemptive detection and neutralization of threats.
Key Technologies
- Optical Phishing Recognition (OPR): Uses AI-powered visual scanning to mimic human perception, detecting and blocking zero-day phishing threats, including those that evade traditional security tools.
- Threat Intelligence Autonomous Operation (TIAO): Continuously monitors cybercriminal activity to identify compromised credentials, leaked data, and interconnected attack campaigns before attacks materialize.
- Data Analysis NLU (Natural Language Understanding): Analyzes communication patterns to detect fraud and social engineering by recognizing psychological manipulations and subtle behavioral cues that signal possible breaches.
Why does this matter?
- Attackers now exploit any digital channel where employees can be manipulated, including through deepfakes and voice impersonation during video calls.
- Traditional security solutions, such as email filters and endpoint protection, are no longer sufficient, as business communication is increasingly happening outside email and adversaries are innovating faster than legacy defenses.
- Cyvore’s proactive approach aims to detect threats before execution (zero-day), reducing the risks associated with reactive, post-breach responses.
Who does Cyvore serve?
Cyvore targets mid-to-large enterprises, particularly in financial services, healthcare, and high-tech sectors—industries highly impacted by phishing and fraud, where business-critical communication happens on diverse platforms. The company’s solution has already been deployed across both public and private organizations, with expansion into key banking and financial institutions in the US and Europe.
Who are the founders?
- Ori Segal (CEO): Serial entrepreneur, previously with EY and founder of MUGO (acquired in 2020).
- Yiftach Rotem (CPO): Expert in threat detection, phishing, and fraud prevention.
- Yoav Rotem (CTO): Software engineer and specialist in AI-driven security.
