Founded in 2024 by cybersecurity veterans Guy Flechter (former CEO & Co-Founder of Cider Security, acquired by Palo Alto Networks) and Ron Peled (former Global CISO of LivePerson and strategic security consultant to startups), Sola was born from their frustration with the stagnation in Cybersecurity innovation.

They set out to build a solution which would make cybersecurity faster and easier to tackle, without compromising the quality and safety these solutions provide. Reflecting Gartner’s expectation that AI assistants will evolve into context-aware copilots for security teams, Sola is advancing technology designed to reduce repetitive workload and enhance decision support, all backed by baked-in security logic and reasoning.

In the six months since emerging from stealth, Sola Security has garnered more than 2,000 users who created over 1,000 custom security apps with Sola’s generative AI, spanning from identity and access management to cloud security, posture and configuration management, compliance, and more.
