Cyb3r Operations has raised £4 million in funding led by Octopus Ventures, with follow-on investment from Pi Labs. The London-based cybersecurity startup gives organisations continuous visibility into third-party cyber risk.
More than a third of major cyber incidents now involve third parties, yet many organisations still rely on annual questionnaires, spreadsheets and static audits to manage risk. As companies depend on growing networks of SaaS tools, cloud services, AI applications and suppliers, cyber risk increasingly sits outside their direct control.
Cyb3r Operations replaces fragmented, manual processes with continuous, automated oversight integrated across an organisation’s tech stack. It works with large organisations to identify and monitor third-party cyber risks across supply chains in real time, helping teams understand which external relationships matter most and where action is needed first.
The platform highlights how risk is evolving and the impact on organisational resilience, surfacing vulnerabilities across third-party ecosystems, sanctions risks, shadow IT, fourth-party exposures and supply-chain weaknesses that point-in-time assessments can miss.
The funding will be used to scale the platform, deepen threat intelligence capabilities and support more organisations managing third-party and supply-chain cyber risk.
