About iCOUNTER
iCOUNTER is building the future of cybersecurity.

Our AI-native platform makes Risk Determinations at the point of intelligence collection, helping organizations understand what's real, relevant, and actionable. Founded by cybersecurity pioneers and backed by leading investors, iCOUNTER created a new category: Counter Threat Operations. The first wave focused on prevention. The second on detection and response. The third wave is Counter Threat Operations—and we're defining it.
