About Emproof
At a glance
Emproof is a cybersecurity company specializing in Cyber-Physical Security, founded in 2021 and headquartered in Bochum, Germany. It has raised $2.01M in total funding, employs about 15 people, and is privately held.
Emproof is a Dutch cybersecurity company (emproof B.V.) founded by researchers from Ruhr-Universität Bochum in Germany, specializing in security protection for embedded systems. The company was established by co-founders Marc Fyrbiak, Philipp Koppe, and Tim Blazytko, who identified security vulnerabilities inherent in embedded systems during their academic research in hardware and software security. Emproof's primary product is Emproof Nyx, a solution designed to protect embedded systems by adding security from outside the system rather than requiring a redesign of the underlying architecture. The protection is engineered to occupy a minimal footprint within the programming or software space while making attacks difficult or impossible. Key capabilities of Nyx include reverse engineering protection, malicious hacking protection, and Python code protection. The company holds ISO 26262 (ASIL B) certification, indicating compliance with functional safety standards relevant to automotive and other safety-critical industries. Emproof targets several vertical sectors including automotive, medical/healthcare, aviation, industrial IoT, and semiconductors — all industries where embedded systems are prevalent and security vulnerabilities carry significant real-world consequences. Emproof's approach addresses the fragmentation challenge inherent in embedded systems, where diverse hardware and software configurations make traditional security approaches difficult to apply uniformly. The company is backed by investors including TIIN Capital, Auriga, and HTGF (High-Tech Gründerfonds).
