As the curtains close on another successful show, I reflect on the fascinating startup section at #GISEC. Energetic innovators from across the globe shared their stories, highlighting the many challenges they face in the cyber industry. One such problem that caught my attention was the issue of secure communication, which surprisingly remains unsolved. I was impressed by the many startups presenting solutions for secure communication on unsecure conventional channels, as well as the companies in the business halls taking pride in providing solutions for the same problem. It's inspiring to see the dedication and commitment of these innovators. One startup in particular presented a plug-and-play solution for post quantum adversarial sophistication in breaking conventional encryption. This is just one example of the exciting innovations taking place in the cyber industry. Stay tuned for my upcoming posts, where I will continue to present my analysis of the hottest areas of innovation in the cyber industry one by one (besides AI in all its forms). #research #startups #analysis

I am pleased to share the progress of our AI-driven Data Loss Prevention (DLP) system. This fully operational product, equipped with a user-friendly desktop application, is designed to protect sensitive data across enterprise networks. While core features are live, ongoing development continues to enhance its capabilities and user experience. Our participation in the Plexal Launch Program, funded by the Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT), has been pivotal. The opportunity to pitch to investors, collaborate with industry experts, and receive mentorship has significantly accelerated the project. Their guidance has been instrumental in the system’s success, and continues to drive further innovation. A sincere thank you to the Plexal team and all those who have supported us throughout this journey. This is just the beginning, and I look forward to the future ahead. #CyberSecurity #Innovation #Entrepreneurship #AI #DataProtection #DLP #TechDevelopment #PlexalLaunch #Startups #Networking #Mentorship #TechInnovation #CyberTech #DSIT #DataSecurity #InvestorPitching #BCU #birminghamcityuniversity

Cyera just put the cybersecurity world on notice, locking in a jaw-dropping $300M Series D that rockets their valuation to $3B. New York City is their HQ, but let’s not kid ourselves—this is global domination in the making. Founded by Yotam Segev and Tamar Bar-Ilan, two Israeli Military Intelligence vets who traded in covert ops for corporate-level defense, Cyera is rewriting the rulebook on how enterprises protect their most valuable asset: data. This isn’t your garden-variety funding round. With Accel and Sapphire Ventures leading the charge and Sequoia Capital, Coatue, and Redpoint in the mix, this is a power move. It’s a bet that Cyera’s AI-driven data security platform—real-time discovery, classification, and everything in between—isn’t just keeping pace with the cyber threat evolution; it’s lapping the field. And let’s talk about why this hits different. The stakes for businesses today? Massive. Data isn’t just “important”; it’s mission-critical. A breach doesn’t just hurt your wallet—it cripples trust, stalls growth, and leaves your reputation in shreds. Cyera’s vision? Make that nightmare a thing of the past. Their tech isn’t just smart; it’s battle-tested, scaling fast, and built for a world where traditional security models are basically duct tape on a sinking ship. This funding will fuel Cyera’s growth blitz—expanding their team, advancing their platform, and setting the standard for what next-gen data security should look like. Yotam, Tamar, and the NYC-based crew just gave us all a masterclass in how to play the long game. Cybersecurity isn’t optional anymore—it’s existential. And Cyera? They’re the ones making sure businesses stay in the fight. #Cybersecurity #DataProtection #DataSecurity #Security #DataDefense #AISecurity #AI #ThreatProtection #Startups #SeriesD #Technology #Innovation #NYCTech #TechEcosystem #StartupEcosystem #VentureCapital #StartupFunding

With institutions like CASA - Cluster of Excellence, #HGI, #MPISP, and several tech companies, startups and the Bochum Wirtschaftsentwicklung, Bochum is one of the world's leading hubs in cyber security. This year, Cube 5 made significant strides by joining forces with RWTH Innovation and TU concept GmbH to establish the #6GEMCubator, supporting cutting edge communication tech startups. It's super exciting to be a part of it. As we move forward, my clear priorities for the coming period are: - 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗴𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝘂𝗯𝗲 𝟱'𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴: We aim to provide even more tailored support to startups and push Cube 5 to evolve as an incubator. - 𝗘𝘅𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘁𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗽𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽𝘀: Fostering new connections, deepening existing ones, and working collaboratively to strengthen Bochum and Germany's position as a leading innovation hub. Let’s connect! Glück auf! ⚒️🚀🔐 #Cybersecurity #Innovation #Cube5 #Bochum PS: I'm still pursuing my passion for research as a post-doc at MPI-SP (50%), continuing my work in FPGA security, which remains close to my heart.
