Company Overview

Oort gives businesses confidence to quickly and securely get work done with any third party. Gain real-time visibility and control over which third parties have access to what, and why. Oort is the world’s first identity-centric zero-trust fabric specifically designed for secure B2B connectivity.

Investment Rationale

645 was initially introduced to Oort by the team at S28 Capital. We were impressed by the large market they were going after, the expertise of the founder and early employees and the opt tier list of co-investors including Bain Capital Ventures and several notable angel investors from exceptional cyber companies.

Exit Summary

Oort's API-driven, cloud-native, and agentless platform eliminates identity visibility gaps across disparate data sources, shows misconfigurations, checks for security vulnerabilities, and offers predictive identity analytics to proactively stop attacks. It also cuts down on remediation time by giving enterprises a clear understanding of the blast radius of an identity-related incident.. Oort's identity-centric technology will enhance Cisco's Security Cloud's user context telemetry and will be incorporated across their portfolio, including Duo Identity Access Management (IAM) technology and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) portfolios. In addition to strengthening Cisco's native telemetry, Oort's integrations with other third-party vendors – including Google, Microsoft, Okta, and Auth0 – supports Cisico's commitment to increase interoperability and deliver consistent outcomes regardless of vendor or technology.
