Barcelona-based technology startup Zynap, led by entrepreneur Daniel Solis, has officially announced its launch after closing a successful €5.7 million funding round. The company specialises in combating cybercrime through the use of advanced generative artificial intelligence models designed to simulate the techniques used in cyber threats. Its approach focuses on providing standardised solutions that are easy to integrate into tools and work environments, while allowing the customisation necessary to adapt to the specific needs of each client and sector.
The financing round was led by venture capital funds Kibo Ventures and Kfund, with the participation of several private investors including Pedro Castillo, founder of Onum and Devo, the first Spanish unicorn in the cybersecurity sector. With this capital, Zynap plans to accelerate the development of its technology and expand its operations globally.
Cybercrime is evolving at an alarming rate, with attackers leveraging advanced tactics to infiltrate businesses and disrupt operations. Zynap is redefining cybersecurity with an AI-powered platform that anticipates and neutralizes cyber threats before they can cause harm. By simulating real-world attack techniques, Zynap enables organizations to stay ahead of cybercriminals rather than reacting to breaches after they occur.
Traditional security measures struggle to keep up with increasingly sophisticated threats, leaving companies vulnerable to operational disruptions and financial losses. Zynap addresses this challenge by offering a proactive, AI-driven defense system that continuously monitors the cybercrime ecosystem, identifying new attack patterns in real time and automating threat response.
Zynap’s platform is designed for businesses of all sizes, security teams, and Managed Security Service Providers (MSSPs), making enterprise-grade cybersecurity accessible to a wider audience. Their Michelangelo framework enables companies to simulate cyberattacks as if they were launched by real adversaries, providing deep insights into vulnerabilities and automating security responses. With capabilities like external attack surface management, dark web infiltration, and real-time early warning systems, Zynap empowers security teams to focus on strategic initiatives rather than manual threat detection.
The company is led by a team of cybersecurity experts dedicated to outpacing cybercriminals through offensive AI, automation, and proprietary intelligence. Their mission is not just to protect businesses but to shift the balance of power in cybersecurity, giving defenders the tools to stay ahead. We’re proud to support Zynap on their journey and look forward to seeing them help companies outsmart cybercrime.
