Cato Networks goes live with Network Security as a Service (NSaaS)

Cato Networks, the latest venture from tech legends Shlomo Kramer of Check Point and Gur Shatz from Incapsulafame, announced their launch this week, taking their cloud-based network security solution live to change the face of how organizations work online.

Founded in 2015, Cato Networks has set out to bring true network security to a cloud environment with a solution aimed at meeting the dynamic needs of the dispersed cloud and mobile workflow that has come to dominate the industry.

Cato Networks’ lead investors are Aspect Ventures and U.S. Venture Partners, who pulled together a $20 Series A round back in October 2015.

Whereas business has moved onto cloud infrastructure that allows companies to work across the globe, accessing and storing their data from disparate locations while cutting costs by having others manage their infrastructure, network security has seriously lagged behind.
