Overview
Cynomi builds the infrastructure for the virtual CISO economy. Their platform is used by 100+ managed service providers — including Deutsche Telekom — to deliver structured, policy-driven security programs to SMB and mid-market clients who couldn’t otherwise afford dedicated security leadership.
What They’re Building
The platform ingests a client’s tech stack, compliance requirements, and risk posture, then generates a tailored security program: policies, gap assessments, prioritized remediation tasks, and board-ready reporting. MSPs can run dozens of vCISO engagements from a single pane of glass.
Traction
- $37M Series B (2025), led by prominent growth investors
- 100+ MSP partners across Europe and North America
- Strategic partnership with Deutsche Telekom for SMB security delivery
Why It Matters
There are roughly 33 million SMBs in the US alone, almost none of which have a CISO. Cynomi bets that the vCISO model — delivered through MSPs at scale — is the only economically viable path to closing that gap.
