Company Overview

Snapshot

Founded in January 2018 by Moti Shkolnik, Sharon Mirsky, and Orr Chen, Firedome operates with 1–10 employees. The company has raised $14.5M across 5 funding rounds from 6 investors.

Business overview

Firedome develops agent-based endpoint protection solutions designed to secure IoT devices within enterprise networks. Its Firedome EPP prevents advanced attack types, such as supply chain and insider threats, that existing security controls might miss. The company aims to democratize IoT endpoint protection by collaborating with both device vendors and enterprise security teams, extending the same level of security to IoT devices as is available for IT endpoints. Firedome provides defense-in-depth protection, combining prevention, detection, response, and forensic data into a unified solution that integrates with existing SIEM platforms, and works with enterprise IoT device vendors to deploy its EPP across all stages of the device lifecycle.

Strategic signal

In July 2024, news reports indicated that Firedome was facing insolvency, suggesting a significant operational challenge for the company. This development signals potential financial distress and raises questions about the company's future viability and its ability to continue its mission in the IoT cybersecurity market.
