Hackuity, based in Lyon, France, develops risk-based vulnerability management software that aggregates data from various security tools into a unified platform for detecting, prioritizing, and remediating cyber vulnerabilities. The company's SaaS platform automates up to 70% of vulnerability management tasks using analytics and machine learning, providing enterprises with a comprehensive view of their cyber exposure across IT environments. Hackuity has raised $13.1 million in total funding across four rounds, including a €12 million round led by Sonae IM in March 2022, with Caisse des Dépôts also among its investors. The firm employs between 51 and 200 individuals and serves enterprise cybersecurity markets in Europe and Asia. Its platform aims to replace manual processes with a unified cockpit for proactive attack prevention. Hackuity was founded in 2018 by Patrick Ragaru and Pierre Polette.

Hackuity is a cybersecurity startup founded in 2018 that builds a Risk-Based Vulnerability Management (RBVM) platform to help enterprises aggregate, prioritize, and remediate vulnerabilities across their IT environments.[1][3] It serves security teams in organizations worldwide by integrating data from over 100 third-party tools into a single pane of glass, using proprietary algorithms like True Risk Score (TRS) and machine learning to provide normalized vulnerability intelligence, automate 70% of management tasks, reduce critical vulnerabilities, and enable faster remediation specific to each customer's attack surface.[1][3][4][5] The platform solves the "vulnerability chaos" caused by siloed tools, CVE overload, manual processes, and resource shortages—issues behind 60% of breaches from unpatched known vulnerabilities and affecting 77% of organizations—delivering clarity, automation, and cost savings.[2][5][8]
Backed by €12M in stealth funding (Series A of $14M in March 2022), Hackuity has shown strong growth with offices in London (2022) and Singapore (2022), protection of a top global energy leader by late 2021, and product releases like SmartEx² in June 2023, positioning it for international expansion in Europe, Asia, and beyond.[1][3]
Hackuity was founded in 2018 by experts from leading cybersecurity service providers who recognized persistent gaps in vulnerability management, such as siloed data, manual Excel-based prioritization, and failure to address basics amid hype around new threats.[3][7][9] The idea emerged from their frontline experience: security professionals struggling with the same core issues—backups, asset tracking, and unpatched vulnerabilities—despite evolving tech like the early internet to modern clouds.[7] Patrick (likely a key figure, referenced in investor quotes) leads the mission to "get the basics right" via a holistic platform.[1][7]
Early traction built quickly: By December 2021, it protected the #2 global energy leader and won the "Assises" R&D Challenge; 2021-2022 saw awards like Banking Cybersecurity Innovation, Grand Defi Cyber, and cyber deep-tech R&D program wins, plus EIC Seal of Excellence and FIC R&D challenge victories.[3] Emergence from stealth in 2022 with €12M funding accelerated global go-to-market, engineering hires focused on diversity, and customer communities.[1]
Hackuity rides the surging demand for RBVM amid exploding cyber threats, where known unpatched vulnerabilities fuel 60% of breaches and 77% of firms lack patching resources.[2][5] Timing is ideal post high-profile attacks (e.g., Log4j-era chaos), with market forces like cloud migration, hybrid environments, and regulations (e.g., EU innovation grants) favoring platforms that unify existing tools without rip-and-replace.[1][3][9] It influences the ecosystem by enabling "do more with less" automation, boosting cyber resilience for enterprises, energy giants, banks, and beyond—shifting from reactive CVE overload to proactive, context-aware defense.[1][7][8]
Hackuity is poised to scale as a market leader in RBVM, leveraging its proven product-market fit, award-winning innovation, and Series A momentum to penetrate major markets while iterating on AI-driven features like SmartEx².[1][3] Trends like AI-enhanced threat prediction, zero-trust expansions, and regulatory pressures will amplify its edge, potentially evolving it into a full cyber exposure platform influencing global standards. As vulnerability chaos persists, Hackuity's clarity-first approach will empower more security teams to quantify and fortify postures, tying back to its core quest: revolutionizing VM to make digital operations objectively safe.[1][3]
