Cybereason's journey began in 2012, born from the minds of Lior Div, Yonatan Striem-Amit, and Yossi Naar, individuals with deep experience in military cybersecurity, including the Israeli Defense Force's elite Unit 8200. Their mission was to revolutionize how organizations fight cyber threats. They envisioned a future where defenders could gain the upper hand against increasingly sophisticated adversaries. This vision translated into building an endpoint detection and response platform designed to proactively hunt for threats rather than just react to them. The company established its initial headquarters in Boston, Massachusetts, in 2014, marking a significant step in its global expansion.

The core of Cybereason's offering became its AI-driven Cybereason Defense Platform. This platform was engineered to ingest vast amounts of data from endpoints, the cloud, and across the entire enterprise ecosystem. By leveraging artificial intelligence and machine learning, it aimed to provide predictive prevention, detection, and response capabilities. The company focused on an 'operation-centric' approach, meaning it pieces together the full story of an attack (a 'MalOp' or malicious operation) rather than just flagging isolated alerts. This allows security teams to understand the root cause and scope of an attack quickly and remediate it effectively. Over the years, Cybereason expanded its product suite to include next-generation antivirus (NGAV), endpoint detection and response (EDR), extended detection and response (XDR), and managed detection and response (MDR) services. The company also emphasized proactive threat hunting and digital forensics and incident response (DFIR) capabilities. Throughout its growth, Cybereason secured significant funding from investors like SoftBank, Liberty Strategic Capital, and Google Cloud, enabling further innovation and market expansion. Despite facing the dynamic and competitive cybersecurity landscape, including leadership changes and market fluctuations, Cybereason has remained committed to its goal of empowering defenders and reversing the adversary advantage, serving customers across numerous countries.
