Stairwell Inception helps organizations get ahead of the most sophisticated attackers>
Help Net Security
Stairwell launched Inception, a platform for recursive threat hunting, detection, and response. Inception helps security practitioners decisively and quickly determine if they were compromisedânow or in the pastâby immediately surfacing threats that typically take months to detect.

Stairwellsâs approachâinside-out securityâcaught the eye of leading investors, securing $20 million in Series A funding from Sequoia Capital, Accel, Allen & Company LLC. Accel partner Steve Loughlin and Sequoia partner Bill Coughran joined the companyâs board of directors.

Stairwellâs inside-out approach to security starts by looking inward at a companyâs data, generating an intelligent view of its environment, and enriching it with emerging threat intelligence to identify artifacts, patterns, and relationships that indicate nefarious activity.

The team behind Stairwell is composed of security experts from the likes of Google and Mandiant. Founder and CEO Mike Wiaceck created one of the first threat intelligence teams, Googleâs Threat Analysis Group, and co-founded Chronicle (now part of Google Cloud).
