Cylera is a technology company specializing in advanced cybersecurity and intelligence solutions for healthcare IoT (Internet of Things), IoMT (Internet of Medical Things), and operational technology (OT) environments. Its flagship product, the Cylera Command Platform, provides centralized, real-time visibility and protection for connected medical devices and healthcare networks. The platform serves hospitals, healthcare networks, and clinical engineering teams by addressing the unique cybersecurity challenges of fragile medical devices and complex healthcare environments. Cylera’s solution enables asset identification, risk assessment, threat detection, network segmentation, and fleet optimization, all powered by patented technologies and artificial intelligence to deliver precise, actionable insights without disrupting patient care[1][2][3][4].
Founded in 2017 and headquartered in New York, Cylera emerged from the need to secure the rapidly growing and complex healthcare IoT ecosystem. The company was developed with deep expertise in both clinical and IT workflows, collaborating closely with hospitals to tailor its technology specifically for healthcare environments. This partnership-driven approach allowed Cylera to pioneer patented techniques such as IoT device emulation and adaptive datatype analysis, which underpin its unique ability to create digital twins of medical devices and identify zero-day devices and protocols. Early traction came from healthcare providers recognizing the critical need for specialized IoT security that does not interfere with patient care[6][2].
Cylera rides the growing trend of digital transformation in healthcare, where increasing connectivity of medical devices expands attack surfaces and cybersecurity risks. The timing is critical as healthcare providers face sophisticated cyber threats that can compromise patient safety and data security. Cylera’s specialized platform fills a vital gap by providing tailored, real-time IoT security that aligns with clinical workflows and regulatory compliance. Its influence extends to improving operational resilience and enabling healthcare organizations to mature their cybersecurity programs efficiently. By pioneering healthcare IoT security, Cylera shapes the broader ecosystem’s approach to protecting critical infrastructure in a highly regulated and sensitive sector[5][6].
Looking ahead, Cylera is well-positioned to expand its impact as healthcare IoT adoption accelerates globally. Trends such as AI-driven security, zero trust architectures, and regulatory pressures will likely drive demand for Cylera’s specialized solutions. The company’s continued innovation in device emulation, threat intelligence, and integration capabilities will enhance its leadership in healthcare IoT cybersecurity. As cyber threats evolve, Cylera’s role as a trusted partner for healthcare providers will deepen, potentially broadening into adjacent sectors with similar IoT security needs. Its focus on patient safety and operational continuity ensures it remains a critical player in the intersection of healthcare and cybersecurity.
Cylera has raised $20.0M across 4 funding rounds. Most recently, it raised $3.0M Venture Round in August 2025.
