ThetaRay founded in 2013 by Amir Averbuch and Prof. Raphael Ronald Kaufman, has successfully transformed a decade of academic research into a solid analytical platform and threat detection solutions for the protection of critical infrastructure, financial institutions and other industry sectors. Requiring no rules, heuristics or signatures, the mathematically-based platform and layered solutions uncover zero-day attacks, hidden APTs, operational faults, fraud and other threats by simultaneously analyzing all security and operational data sources instantaneously, without having to introduce human or computational biases.
The company’s patented, award-winning platform automatically uncovers unknown cyber and operational threats, allowing customers to take action and avert disaster before any damage occurs. ThetaRay’s core technology is based on algorithms, which power its proprietary Hyper-Dimensional, Multi-Domain Big Data Analytics platform.
“We are impressed by ThetaRay’s ability to generate breakthrough ideas and develop them into real-world customer solutions, ” said Brett May, Head of Venture Capital and Business Development at GE Software. “The company’s unique security analytics, developed over ten years of innovative academic research, have the potential to significantly enhance and help protect the industrial internet and the Internet of Things.“

The new investment round will help grow the company into a market leader in its domain and drive its international presence.”
