Twine Security

Twine Security develops AI-powered digital employees designed to automate cybersecurity tasks and address the cyber talent gap. The company's flagship product, Alex, functions as a digital cybersecurity employee that executes security operations tasks autonomously. Founded by former Claroty executives and cybersecurity veterans from Israel's elite 8200 Cyber Unit, Twine focuses on creating an AI workforce to redefine how cyber teams execute security tasks. The company was recognized as a 2025 Gartner Cool Vendor in Identity-First Security, reflecting its focus on identity and access management automation. Twine's approach centers on building digital employees that can perform complex cybersecurity functions, enabling security teams to maximize efficiency and scale their operations without proportionally increasing headcount. The founding team includes Benny Porat (CEO), who previously co-founded Claroty and holds a PhD in Computer Science; Nadav Erez (CTO), former VP of Data and Analytics at Claroty; Omri Green (GTM), a former General Partner at DTC and Grove Ventures; and Justin Woody (CMO), who previously held senior positions at Claroty and Mandiant/Google. The company targets enterprise security teams looking to automate routine and complex security operations through AI-driven automation.
