Conscientious companies use Riot to prepare their teams for cyberattacks.

In today's world, most successful cyberattacks start by a human failure. We're making the platform that makes it easy to prepare your employees for cyberattacks, in a way they love. Created in 2020, Riot has been funded by top-notch investors (Y Combinator, Funders Club and Frst Capital), and is now protecting more than 20,000 employees in over 300 companies including Intercom, Deel and Deezer.

Cybersecurity is everywhere. It's impacting everyone, everyday, and it's becoming the number one risk to any organization, whether it's a small business or a big firm. Yet, the cybersecurity culture in most companies is a disaster. Hackers are leveraging this by targeting the weakest link: the employees. We're on a mission to fix that.

About Riot

We're a product-first team on a mission to help grow the cybersecurity culture. We want to instill cybersecurity good practices to employees in a way that's actually effective, and entertaining enough so that employees don't feel like they're working. Think Duolingo but for cybersecurity.

We created a platform to easily rollout a cybersecurity awareness program: the plaform sends chat-based 4-minutes long courses to teams. On top of that, the platform simulates phishing attacks, to prepare employees to face hackers — but in a safe environment.

Created in 2020, Riot has raised $3m with top-notch investors (Y Combinator, Funders Club and Frst Capital), and is now protecting more than 20,000 employees in over 300 companies all over the world, including Intercom, Deel and Deezer.
