Yossi Naar is the Chief Visionary Officer and co-founder of Cybereason, the endpoint detection and response (EDR) company he helped build from a 20-person Tel Aviv startup into a global cybersecurity powerhouse valued at $5 billion. A veteran of Israel's elite Unit 8200 intelligence unit, Naar invented the Malop (Malicious Operation) framework and designed Cybereason's in-memory graph engine - two core innovations that reshaped how defenders visualize and respond to multi-stage cyberattacks. With a career spanning defense-grade security platforms, AdTech big data systems, and cutting-edge cybersecurity, he brings a rare combination of low-level engineering depth and product-level vision to the frontlines of the cyber war.
Gili Raanan is an Israeli cybersecurity pioneer turned venture capitalist who invented CAPTCHA, co-created the world's first Web Application Firewall, and then built Cyberstarts — a seed-only VC that turned $54M into over $1B and backed Wiz, the $32B cloud-security juggernaut acquired by Google in 2025. A decade in IDF Unit 8200, two successful exits, nine years as a Sequoia Capital Israel GP, and $1.4B+ in capital raised makes him arguably the most influential figure in the Israeli cyber startup ecosystem.
