Stairwell is a cybersecurity company that offers a platform for Automated Threat Detection and Response that attackers can’t detect or evade. It unlocks time for threat analysis by treating all files as suspicious and pre-preserving them as evidence to speed threat detection and uncover previously unknown compromises. The company was founded in2019 and is headquartered in Mountain View, California. Fast Company has recognized Stairwell as one of the most innovative companies of 2023. We're backed by an incredible lineup of partners, including Accel, Sequoia Capital, Gradient Ventures, and S32 -- not to mention angel investors like Eric Schmidt and Michael Ovitz.Let's imagine for a moment: What if you could deploy a full compromise assessment equivalent to an advanced incident response firm's typical three-week engagement -- for every file alert from your endpoint or SIEM?What if, within minutes of a new threat being reported – anything from supply chain attacks like 3CX or SolarWinds, the latest ransomware variant, or Log4j-style vulnerability – you received an authoritative, automated report on your organization's status regarding the threat? Either a completely "clean bill of health" or telling you that your organization WAS impacted, exactly WHERE, and exactly WHEN. Fully automated, powered by AI and machine learning, with absolute "ground truth."What if you had a neural network at your fingertips, capable of providing accurate threat evaluation, severity assessment, and tracking of not only a specific threat but all of its variants across your enterprise, instantaneously.What if you could write threat informed detections in YARA and run near instantaneously and continuously over every executable file that's ever been in your organization.Now, let's stop imagining, because Stairwell makes this a reality. We're amplifying capabilities across the board - from SOC analysts to threat hunters to incident responders - delivering the combined superpowers of a senior incident responder, a top-tier threat hunter, and a senior malware reverse engineer to every team member via an incredible automation solution. | $20M / Series A / Sep 21, 2021 | |
