We are a fast-growing data science and analytics company that helps organizations manage their security posture using automated metrics and reporting; protecting critical services and data we all rely on.

We’re at the forefront of the cybersecurity industry and have received multiple industry recognitions, having been included in two Gartner Hype Cycles for emerging technologies. In July 2020, Panaseer was featured as an inaugural vendor in the new category of Continuous Controls Monitoring (CCM) for Risk Management. In July 2021, we were included as an inaugural vendor in the new category of Cyber Asset Attack Surface Management (CAASM) for Network Security. Recently, Momentum Cyber included CCM in its Cybersecurity Almanac, as a next generation technology that will shape the future of cybersecurity, also including Panaseer as an inaugural vendor.

Panaseer developed the first Continuous Controls Monitoring platform that uses automated, data-driven security metrics to give enterprise security leaders greater visibility into their cybersecurity posture. This gives anyone – from executive to analyst – live, trusted insight into their security posture, enabling them to make the best decisions about risk, confidently report to key stakeholders, hold people accountable and prioritize remediation based on their business priorities.

We have raised over $43 million in funding and have won numerous awards - most recently being named winner of ‘Best Product in Continuous Controls Monitoring’ in the Cyber Defense Magazine Awards at RSA Conference 2020. Panaseer’s CCM platform was named as the ‘Best Regulatory Compliance Tool and Solution’ at the 2020 SC Awards Europe. We were also named the ‘Hottest CyberTech Startup’ at TechCrunch’s Europas’ Awards.

We have multiple strategic partnerships with leading technology vendors such as Cisco, Amazon Web Services and RSA which strengthens our platform.
