Company profile
researched Aug 2026Semperis is a privately held B2B cybersecurity vendor focused on identity threat detection and response (ITDR), hybrid identity protection and cyber crisis management. Its Identity Resilience Platform is built around enterprise identity providers—Microsoft Active Directory, Entra ID and Okta—and covers the full attack lifecycle: reducing the identity attack surface before an attack, detecting and containing attacks in progress, and recovering directories to a trusted state afterward. Core products include Directory Services Protector (AD and Entra ID threat prevention, detection and response), Active Directory Forest Recovery (cyber-first AD disaster recovery), Disaster Recovery for Entra Tenant, Recovery for Okta, Delegation Manager for AD, Migrator for Active Directory, Lightning Intelligence (SaaS security posture assessment and attack path management), Identity Runtime Protection, and Ready1, an enterprise cyber crisis response platform.
Alongside licensed software, Semperis offers services including identity forensics and incident response (IFIR), AD and Entra ID security assessments, remediation, disaster recovery planning and exercises, AD architectural review, and AD migration and consolidation. It also distributes free community tools—Purple Knight, an AD/Entra ID/Okta security assessment tool with 150+ security indicators, and Forest Druid, a Tier 0 attack path discovery tool—and runs the Hybrid Identity Protection (HIP) conference and podcast. The company states its AI-powered technology protects over 100 million identities and positions identity as the control plane for agentic AI, publishing research such as "The State of Identity Security in the AI Era" and guidance on securing AI agent identities.
Founding story
Semperis was founded by Mickey Bresman (CEO), Guy Teverovsky (CTO) and Matan Liberman (EVP Business Development), who lead the company from Hoboken, New Jersey and Tel Aviv. The company's own materials cite a 2014 founding date, while press coverage cites 2015; from the outset it argued that identity should be at the center of cyber resilience.
Business model
Enterprise software vendor selling subscription/recurring-revenue identity security and recovery products (reported as surpassing $100M in ARR in January 2025), supplemented by professional and incident response services. Free community tools (Purple Knight, Forest Druid) and the HIP conference and podcast serve as demand-generation and community channels.
Recurring revenue from platform products for AD, Entra ID and Okta protection and recovery, plus fees for services such as identity forensics and incident response, assessments, remediation, DR planning, and AD migration and consolidation.
Traction
More than 1,000 customer organizations, including over 25% of the 100 largest U.S. companies, with customers in more than 40 countries; the platform is described as protecting over 100 million identities. Semperis reported surpassing $100M in ARR in January 2025 and six consecutive years of double-digit growth, and employs roughly 600 people, about 150 of them in Tel Aviv.
Latest developments
In February 2026 Semperis acquired MightyID, an identity resilience specialist for Okta and Ping, extending backup, restore, migration and failover capabilities for cloud identity providers; the deal's terms were undisclosed but estimated at about $20 million. Recent activity also includes the April 2025 launch of Ready1, the January 2025 disclosure of surpassing $100M ARR, a sixth consecutive Deloitte Fast 500 listing in November 2025, the Midnight in the War Room documentary announced in October 2025, and 2026 research and product messaging on securing identity infrastructure for agentic AI, including agent identity attacks and non-human identity protection.
