CyberRidge Emerges From Stealth With $26 Million for Photonic Encryption Solution
Israeli cybersecurity startup CyberRidge has emerged from stealth mode with $26 million in total funding ($16M Series A led by Arkin, Redseed VC, Elron Ventures, and EIC grant, plus prior $10M from Awz) for its photonic encryption technology. The hardware-based solution transforms data into encrypted optical noise at the physical layer, making it immune to interception and quantum decryption threats. The company, founded in February 2022 by Professor Dan Sadot, employs ~20 people in Israel with additional teams in the U.S. and Switzerland. Technology is being tested by leading organizations across Europe, Singapore, and Australia, including an IDF Intelligence unit.
