[Aliro @AliroQuantum]

Big news to share today! Aliro just raised $15M in an oversubscribed round.

This milestone reflects growing recognition that the cybersecurity landscape is changing. Adversaries are already harvesting encrypted data today with the intent to decrypt it tomorrow. Classical cryptography (whether RSA, ECC, or even post-quantum cryptography - PQC) is ultimately rooted in mathematical hardness assumptions.

At Aliro, we believe the future of security must be grounded in something stronger: the fundamental laws of physics.

In our latest Innovation Unleashed session we discussed why identity has become the "invisible" attack surface.

[Cisco Investments @Cisco_Invests]

Organizations are increasingly grappling with identity-related incidents.

The pattern: attackers chaining privileges in AD and Entra ID. Most tools miss the full path.

Join us LIVE tomorrow for a webinar on finding and fixing these attack paths.
