Sola emerges from stealth with $30M to build the ‘Stripe for security’

In these days, initiatives can choose from hundreds of applications and services available to protect their network, data and resources – these security applications are almost more to help manage all the alerts and additional work. But if you can create your own applications to make the whole game easier, you can create customized on your own work stress?

This is known as a new Israeli startup SolaWhich users have created a low/no-code platform to create their own cyberscopety applications according to their specific needs, including equipment to handle the applications that they can already use. Sola is derived from the stealth today to hit the ground with the aim of “democratization” to “democratization” on how to contact the ground for the $ 30 million seed fund.

“We’re not trying to be like any other generation’s CPSM or ASPM,” co-founder Guy Flechter said, mentioning the tools of the posture-“or any of you may think. We want to change your way. We want to change your way Thinking About protection. Doing the money like a stripe or with the design of the canva. “

S. Capital (Firms founded by Sikoia Israel starting) and long-term Sikoia VC Mike Mortaz is giving co-leadership of this round,S32, GLAILET CAPITAL PARTORSAnd anonymous Angel investors are participating. (Sola has been around for a year, and some of these round details are leaked during the implementation and the company has not yet unveiled any details about its product))

Sola is the brain of two long -time players in the CyberSSCURITY world whose experience effectively supports the challenge. Flechter is a manufacturer who has previously been co-founded and Cedar Secure, which was the expert in app protection of applications Earned Palo Alto Networks in 2022 are at $ 300 million.

As Flauchter describes it, these days there are basically two options to solve security challenges.

The option is a very visible, buying commercial solution, usually for the price tag between six statistics. “This is a very complex solution, and at the end of the day you probably don’t use everything you pay,” he said.

The alternative is creating a solution by using two open source ingredients. “You need a very high level of technical skills to combine it,” he said.

The solar method is effectively a swing effectively in creating three.

The latest innovations using AI and Big Data Management are designed for companies that may not have large security teams and can use without extensive technical skills.

Solar interfaces that allow users to set goals or ask questions in natural language and then let the data be pulled from different sources, identify what to track it, creating a new “application” that works with the specific assets of the company.

Flechter said Sola could be used to ask data in the existing security applications, but it was also created to replace the specific functionality. For those who don’t want to keep their own apps together, there is a “Ready Made” app as well as sola.

The goal is to create a more flowing security service for companies, theoretically for what they want and for a part of the price.

In the Application Gallery, apps currently give you an idea of ​​what kind of functionality sola can handle it. For example, an AWS network protection app “allows user to get a high-level summary of AWS network security metrics with potential weaknesses.”

The kind of question that it can answer, it says, “Which security groups have excessively permitted rules?” “Is there any network protocol enabled throughout my environment?” “There is a protected open port that can reveal critical services?” And “What is the status of my VPC Flow log?”

There are dozens of other cloud environment, developed environment like Githab and main protection equipment like Octa and Wiz.

Mortaz, significantly, is the first investment here in the beginning of his skill as a single investor. He said that what was standing for him was how the Sola team was leaning towards the larger trend of the front building, more complex work was being done behind the screen at the back end, when it was pressing on technical innovations to make it possible. It is a pattern that has previously been seen in fields such as paypeting with stripes, designs with canvas and many more present -day giant technology companies. However, his words are also a reminder that all of this is still underway.

“It is clear that Sola is about to take advantage of all the progress that happens at the rate of breathing in AI’s evolution. This is very clear in its product, ”he said in an interview. “If you keep an eye on the solar interface even 18 months ago, it is greatly thank you for the improvements and the epochs that have been announced in the past 18 months.”
