| Strike delivers continuous hybrid validation by combining AI-led threat emulation with human expert oversight to proactively identify and remediate security vulnerabilities at scale. Founded in 2021, the platform enables organizations to continuously test deeply their attack surface — including web applications, APIs, mobile apps, cloudinfrastructure, and internal networks — through AI-led threat emulations validated by world-class security experts known as Strikers.At the core of Strike's approach is the belief that neither AI nor humans alone are enough. Its proprietary engine, Strike360, automates the full testing lifecycle — from discovery and exploitation through retesting and remediation — while certified security experts provide contextual oversight for critical assets, ensuring depth and accuracy that automation alone cannot achieve.Every engagement is fully transparent: human tester activity is recorded through a proprietary VPN and merged with AI-led testing logs, producing an auditable trail that sets a new standard for visibility in offensive security. Organizations can launch threat emulations autonomously (triggering them from Git) or on demand, receive real-time vulnerability alerts with actionable remediation guidance, and validate fixes through automated retesting — reducing detection cycles from months to seconds.Seamless integrations with Jira, Slack, Teams, and API bridge the gap between security and development teams, while built-in compliance automation streamlines certifications including SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, and PCI DSS. Strike's Phishing Monitor also detects impersonation domains targeting client brands.Trusted by over 100 enterprises across finance, technology, healthcare, and insurance — including Santander, Mercado Libre, Okta, Globant, DeliveryHero, and Naranja X — Strike serves clients across Latin America, the U.S., and Europe. The company raised a $13.5M Series A in March 2025 led by FinTech Collective, with participation from Galicia Ventures, Greyhound Capital, FJ Labs, Canary, and others.Headquartered in New York with a remote-first global team. Recognized as a Challenger and Fast Mover in the GigaOm Radar 2025. | $5.4M / Seed / Apr 20, 2022 | ||
