Cynet has raised $13 million in funding for its enterprise-grade cybersecurity platform, which the company describes as a dashboard focused on holistic detection and response.

The Cynet 360 cybersecurity platform is targeted at both large and small companies, and it seeks to enable them to protect, prevent, detect, and remediate any threat or attack on an internal network, so they no longer need to expend time and energy managing multiple technologies.

In order to keep fueling development, Tel Aviv-based Cynet has raised the money in a round by Norwest Venture Partners, serial cyber investor Shlomo Kramer, and returning investor Ibex Investors. The investment will bolster Cynet’s growth as it continues to pursue making cybersecurity look easy. The goal is to help companies save time, manpower, and money.

“Almost all cybersecurity solutions are built to address one vertical in the complex enterprise defense architecture,” said Dror Nahumi, general partner at Norwest Venture Partners, in a statement. “However, small to medium size enterprises do not have the resources to define, select, integrate and manage dozens of products from different vendors. We are impressed with Cynet’s vision and proven customer success to enable a complete defense solution from a single platform, addressing this huge market demand.”
