Right-Hand Cybersecurity is a SaaS platform specializing in Human Risk Management to enhance employee cyber resilience through AI-powered tools that address awareness, behavior, and culture. Founded in 2019, it tackles the fact that employees cause nearly 90% of data breaches by offering hyper-personalized phishing and vishing simulations, automated training from policies/documents, and compliance assessments, serving security teams in Asia-Pacific, North America, and Europe.[1][2][3] The company has raised $6M in total funding (including a recent $5M round), employs around 34 people, and reports $6M in revenue, demonstrating strong growth momentum amid rising cyber threats.[3]
Right-Hand Cybersecurity was founded in 2019 by Theo Nasser (Co-Founder & CEO) and Uzair Ahmed (Co-Founder & CTO), both experts in cybersecurity and EdTech.[1][5] While working in the industry, they noticed global clients spending millions on perimeter defenses yet suffering breaches due to human error, revealing the gap in platforms that evolve employee behavior alongside threats.[1] This insight led to pioneering Human Risk Management; they've built a team, secured investors (including Singapore Government backers), and gained early traction with clients worldwide, shifting focus from traditional security to proactive employee empowerment.[1][2]
Right-Hand rides the AI-driven cybersecurity shift toward human-centric defenses, as 90% of breaches stem from employee errors amid evolving threats like deep fakes and sophisticated phishing.[1][2][5] Timing is ideal with global cyber workforce shortages (still 4M short) and rising AI threats, positioning it to capitalize on market forces like regulatory demands for compliance and enterprises seeking automated, scalable training over outdated methods.[5][3] It influences the ecosystem by pioneering Human Risk Management, empowering SOC leaders and reducing reliance on perimeter tech, while fostering a "cyber culture" that scales across industries like manufacturing and travel.[1][5]
Right-Hand is poised for accelerated growth through AI enhancements in vishing/phishing and global expansion, potentially capturing more of the $6M revenue trajectory with its $6M funding fueling product iteration.[3] Trends like AI-augmented threats and compliance mandates will amplify demand, evolving its role from niche innovator to essential platform in enterprise security stacks. As human error remains the weakest link, Right-Hand's mission to make employees cyber resilient positions it to redefine resilience in an adversary-dominated landscape.[1]
Right-Hand Cybersecurity has raised $5.0M across 1 funding round. Most recently, it raised $5.0M Series A in March 2023.
