About iCOUNTER

iCOUNTER is redefining how enterprises defend against cyber threats originating across their extended business ecosystems.

Our AI-native Counter Threat Operating System (CTOS™) combines threat intelligence, risk determination, and operational response to help organizations identify and act on threats involving third parties, subsidiaries, portfolio companies, and interconnected business relationships.

We’re building a new category of cybersecurity, and we’re looking for exceptional talent to help us bring it to market.
