Skycure is a predictive mobile threat defense (MTD) company with proactive defense solutions that actively detect and prevent mobile cyberattacks while preserving user privacy and experience and reducing the burden on IT. Skycure’s mission is to secure both BYO and corporate-owned mobile devices to allow companies to mobilize without compromise.
Skycure closes the mobile security gaps in organizations to protect against network-based threats, malware, vulnerability exploits, and other targeted attacks originating from both internal and external sources.
Skycure's patented technology employs a dual protection mechanism, which consists of a client-side module that resides on the device and protects it 24/7, together with a server-side service that provides heavy lifting analysis. Skycure’s predictive technology (often referred to as "waze" of mobile security) is based on mobile threat intelligence gathered via massive crowd intelligence and sophisticated machine learning. Skycure’s research team is accredited with cutting edge publications (such as Accessibility Clickjacking, Cookie Stealer, No iOS Zone, Malicious Profiles, WifiGate, HRH, LinkedOut), ensuring the solution is always ready for future threats.
Skycure was founded in 2012 by Adi Sharabani and Yair Amit, two Unit 8200 veterans (U.S. National Security Agency equivalent), who possess extensive and proven technological and managerial experience in the security industry. The company is funded by Shasta Ventures, Pitango Venture Capital, NYL and other strategic investors.
