Company profile

researched Aug 2026

Cyble is a cybersecurity company that provides cyber threat intelligence, digital risk protection and security operations software to enterprises, government agencies and security teams. Its stated approach is an AI-native platform that monitors the open, deep and dark web to identify threat actors, ransomware campaigns, data leaks and underground cybercrime activity, detect exposed credentials, phishing infrastructure and brand abuse, manage external attack surface risk across cloud environments and endpoints, correlate signals across threat intelligence, endpoint, cloud and identity domains, and automate investigation and incident response.

The product line centres on Cyble Vision, the flagship threat intelligence platform (combining CTI, attack surface management and digital risk protection); Cyble Hawk, a platform aimed at law enforcement agencies, governments and federal bodies; Cyble Titan, an agent-based endpoint security product; a Threat Intelligence Platform (TIP); Odin, an internet scanning and attack surface monitoring engine; and AmIBreached, a dark web exposure monitoring and data breach search service. Blaze AI, introduced in 2025, is described as an agentic AI engine that hunts, correlates and responds to threats under human-in-the-loop policy controls, with the company claiming incident resolution up to 60% faster. Cyble Research and Intelligence Labs (CRIL), launched in 2020, publishes threat landscape reports, vulnerability research and case studies.

Founding story

Co-founders Beenu Arora and Manish Chachada met as EMBA classmates at London Business School, where they also met Murali Darapureddy, one of Cyble's first and most significant angel investors, who advised them to focus on their existing strengths rather than a broad range of business ideas. Drawing on Arora's software engineering and cybersecurity background and Chachada's international finance and operations experience, they scoped a plan for an AI-powered cyber intelligence company. Cyble was officially launched in April 2019 and initially bootstrapped, with Arora as CEO and Chachada as COO.

Business model

Cyble sells subscription software and services to organizations, principally through its Cyble Vision threat intelligence platform, Cyble Hawk for government and federal customers, Cyble Titan endpoint security, and managed offerings including MDR, DFIR and AI-assisted security operations. Free or self-serve tools such as Odin and AmIBreached serve as adjacent offerings around the core enterprise platform.

Enterprise and government platform subscriptions and related managed security services; the company reported to Inc. that its annual recurring revenue more than tripled in a little over two years.

Traction

The company reports customers among Fortune 500 organizations and public sector agencies in more than 50 countries, 400-plus customer reviews underpinning its Gartner Peer Insights rating, and by 2023 more than 12 offices and 250-plus employees. Y Combinator lists a team size of 197. Disclosed equity funding includes a $4 million seed (2021), $10 million Series A (2022) and $30.2 million Series B (2023).

Latest developments

Recent activity includes the launch of Cyble Titan endpoint security and Blaze AI (2025), inclusion as a Challenger in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cyberthreat Intelligence, placement at No. 576 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list on more than tripled ARR, wins at the Global InfoSec Awards 2026 and Cybersecurity Excellence Awards, recognition at the Teiss Cybersecurity Awards 2026 for best threat intelligence platform, and continued CRIL research output including the Global Threat Landscape H1 2026 and AI Threat Landscape 2026 reports.

β–ΈFull profile β€” market position, technology, go-to-market, geography, history, risks & controversies

Market position

Cyble competes in cyber threat intelligence, digital risk protection, attack surface management and, more recently, endpoint security. It was positioned as a Challenger in the 2026 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cyberthreat Intelligence (its first inclusion), named a leader in the 2024 Frost Radar for CTI and the 2025 QKS Group SPARK Matrix for digital threat intelligence, and holds a 4.8/5 Gartner Peer Insights rating and a 4.7/5 G2 rating with 36 G2 Summer 2026 badges across seven categories. It ranked No. 576 on the 2026 Inc. 5000 list.

Cyble positions itself as AI-native rather than adding automation to legacy tooling, unifying threat intelligence, attack surface management, digital risk protection, endpoint security and incident response on a single agentic platform with a shared reasoning and memory layer, and claims 14-plus capabilities covering 80-plus use cases across predict, detect and respond stages.

Technology

The platform is built around Blaze AI, an agentic AI engine whose autonomous agents hunt, reason, correlate and act within policy guardrails, with a feedback loop that retrains models on incidents. Underlying data infrastructure spans billions of indexed web pages, hundreds of billions of dark web records and millions of threat indicators across the open, deep and dark web, combined with endpoint, identity and cloud telemetry. Cyble Titan adds silicon-rooted attestation and BlazeAI-based reconstruction for endpoint detection and autonomous response.

Go-to-market

Direct enterprise and government sales supported by a channel program, the Cyble Partner Network, launched in 2023. Demand generation leans on CRIL threat research, threat landscape reports, analyst evaluations and industry awards, conference presence such as the RSA Conference, and demo requests via the company website.

Large enterprises, Fortune 500 organizations, public sector and federal agencies, law enforcement bodies, and security teams; named verticals include finance, aviation, healthcare and telecom. Case studies cite a U.S. consulting organization and an ANZ financial institution.

Geography

Headquartered in Alpharetta, Georgia (earlier releases cite Atlanta, and the company's own timeline cites an initial Cupertino, California base; Y Combinator lists San Francisco), with offices in Australia, Malaysia, Singapore, Dubai, Saudi Arabia and India, engineering roles based in Bengaluru, and customers in more than 50 countries.

History

Cyble was founded in 2019 and launched in April of that year through bootstrapping. The company's own timeline dates its establishment to 2020 with an initial headquarters in Cupertino, California, and records the 2020 launches of the Cyble Vision threat intelligence platform and CRIL. It took part in Y Combinator's Winter 2021 batch, announced a $4 million seed round in April 2021 and launched the AmIBreached dark web search service the same year. A $10 million Series A followed in February 2022, alongside the launch of Cyble Hawk and an acqui-hire of cybersecurity news publication The Cyber Express. In 2023 Cyble released Vision 2.0 and the Odin internet scanning engine, established the Cyble Partner Network, reported 12-plus offices and 250-plus employees, and closed a $30.2 million Series B in two tranches. In 2024 it relaunched AmIBreached 3.0, introduced Vision X at the RSA Conference, upgraded Odin and launched its Threat Intelligence Platform. In 2025 it launched Cyble Titan endpoint security and Blaze AI.

Risks & controversies

Cyble's shares are offered to accredited investors on the EquityZen secondary marketplace, indicating early-shareholder liquidity activity in a still-private company. Its founders have publicly cautioned about investor terms and the difficulty of retaining specialist cybersecurity talent, and expect employees to spin out of the company over time.
