Lacoon Mobile Security provides a mobile threat management platform that allows enterprises to manage and mitigate the risks of BYOD and protect their corporate assets from mobile cyber threats including malicious applications, targeted network attacks and Advanced Persistent Threats. Lacoon protects the world’s leading organizations with the most comprehensive mobile security available to both iOS and Android, delivered via a centralized platform that easily augments to existing infrastructure providing real-time security and intelligence. Its patented Behavioral Risk Engine detects device, application and in-network threats that others will miss and quantifies the risks and vulnerabilities that BYOD exposes to the enterprise.

Company History:
Lacoon Security Ltd. was founded in 2011 by experts from mobile cyber security and defense industries who observed mobile devices being used to access and store unprecedented quantities of personal & corporate information and discovered a consequent uptick in attacker activity targeting those devices that posed significant risks to security. Their extensive expertise, developed in the field during their service in elite units of the Israeli Defense Forces, gave them a unique perspective on both the dangers of BYOD and corporate mobility trends and the shortcomings of current technologies. They recognized that organizations did not have the tools they needed to effectively protect themselves from the cyber-criminal and espionage activity they were facing.
