Silverfort, a leader in identity security, has announced its acquisition of Rezonate, a pioneer in identity-first security solutions for cloud environments. This strategic acquisition bolsters Silverfort’s capabilities, allowing the company to offer enhanced identity protection across on-premise systems, cloud identity providers, infrastructure, and SaaS applications. The combined technology will be integrated within Silverfort’s unified platform and is set to be available by mid-2025.
Breaking Down Identity Security Barriers and Enhancing Visibility
Identity security has become foundational to cybersecurity strategies, as it remains a top target for cyber attacks. With growing demand for solutions that prioritize identity, many existing tools focus solely on specific areas—like on-prem or cloud environments—or certain identity protection components, such as Identity Threat Detection and Response (ITDR), Privileged Access Management (PAM), or Non-Human Identity (NHI) management. This fragmented approach often leads to gaps in coverage and an increased risk of identity-based attacks.
By integrating Rezonate’s advanced cloud-focused features, Silverfort is poised to offer an industry-leading, unified identity security platform. The platform’s comprehensive visibility and shared security layer across all identities enable organizations to consolidate security controls, enhance decision-making with full context, and apply real-time protective measures more effectively. This cohesive approach simplifies identity security for enterprises, enhancing their security posture while streamlining deployment and operational efficiency.
“After being neglected for years, identity security is becoming the most important element of cybersecurity. We couldn’t be more excited to join Silverfort, as our mutual goal is to solve this difficult problem,” said Roy Akerman, CEO and Co-Founder of Rezonate. “Silverfort built a powerful and innovative platform, an amazing team and culture, and is on a clear path to market leadership. We can’t wait to join Silverfort and grow this platform to its full potential together.”
Silverfort’s Rapid Expansion and Commitment to Unified Identity Security
Silverfort’s growth trajectory has been marked by its success in gaining more than 100 new enterprise customers each quarter, with revenue consistently increasing by over 100% annually. Following a $116M Series D funding round earlier this year, Silverfort is advancing swiftly to realize its vision of a fully unified identity security platform.
“Both the technology built by the Rezonate team and the people themselves are extremely impressive,” said Hed Kovetz, CEO and Co-Founder of Silverfort. “Rezonate offers the broadest set of cloud identity security capabilities that we have seen from a startup of their size, covering NHI, ISPM, ITDR, entitlements and more across every cloud asset. Rezonate’s innovative architecture also enables them to flex and scale to meet every customer’s needs, with unmatched speed and simplicity—and customers love them for it. We’re excited to join forces with Rezonate to empower every business to defend against the evolving identity threat landscape.”
A Unified Platform for Holistic Identity Protection
Silverfort’s technology delivers a significant advantage by enabling security enforcement across an organization’s existing identity infrastructure, including Active Directory, Entra ID, and other Identity Access Management (IAM) systems. This unique capability extends protection to vulnerable assets, such as legacy systems, command-line interfaces, and critical infrastructure that other providers cannot secure. The integration of Rezonate’s expertise deepens Silverfort’s reach into cloud applications, workloads, and infrastructure, expanding its offerings to include NHI security, ITDR, Identity Security Posture Management (ISPM), Entitlement Management, and more.
Organizations can now benefit from a single platform to protect all their identities across on-premises and cloud environments, offering:
- Enhanced protection through unified context: Gain the most comprehensive perspective on identity and access activities across an organization to prevent identity-based threats on-premises, in the cloud, and anywhere in between.
- A centralized approach to identity security: Manage the full spectrum of identity security processes, from discovering hidden assets and exposures to implementing preventive measures, detecting threats, and responding in real-time to neutralize risks before they escalate.
- Comprehensive asset protection: Extend security to traditionally unprotected assets, including legacy systems, critical infrastructure, command-line interfaces, and more, providing defense for every type of asset, both on-prem and in the cloud.
- Streamlined deployment and scalability: Achieve organization-wide identity security in days, simplifying compliance and meeting cyber insurance demands while saving time and reducing costs.
