Stairwell is a cybersecurity company dedicated to empowering organizations to outsmart any attacker. Founded in 2019 by Mike Wiacek, a former co-founder of Google's Chronicle and founder of Google's Threat Analysis Group, Stairwell aims to redefine how security teams approach threat detection and response. The company's core philosophy revolves around the idea that cybersecurity is fundamentally a data analysis challenge. Stairwell's flagship product, the Inception platform, and its newer offering, Stairwell Core, are designed to provide security teams with comprehensive visibility and control over their digital environments. These platforms operate on the principle of collecting, storing, and continuously reassessing every executable file and indicator of compromise across an organization's systems, regardless of time or scale. This approach enables not only real-time monitoring but also retrospective threat assessments, allowing teams to uncover past intrusions that may have gone unnoticed.

Stairwell's technology is built to be evasion-resistant, offering a distinct advantage over traditional security solutions that attackers often find ways to circumvent. By providing deep and actionable insights, Stairwell helps security teams to quickly identify and respond to compromises, understand the scope of a breach, and proactively hunt for threats. The company emphasizes transforming fragmented data into a clear understanding of what is benign, what is malicious, and the reasons why. This empowers security teams of all sizes, even those with limited resources, to effectively defend against sophisticated adversaries. Stairwell has garnered significant investor confidence, securing substantial funding rounds from prominent venture capital firms. The company is focused on scaling its offerings, expanding its team with specialized engineering talent, and continuously enhancing its platform's capabilities to meet the evolving landscape of cyber threats. Several Fortune 500 companies reportedly utilize Stairwell's solutions to bolster their security posture.
