Cybellum is an Israeli product security company providing automated vulnerability assessment and management for connected devices, including defense systems, vehicles, and IoT platforms.
Visit WebsiteCompany Overview
Cybellum develops a product security platform that automatically analyzes software in connected devices — including defense systems, connected vehicles, medical devices, and IoT platforms — to identify vulnerabilities, generate Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs), and ensure regulatory compliance.
Founded in 2016 in Tel Aviv by Slava Bronfman (CEO) and Michael Engstler (CTO), both veterans of the IDF's elite intelligence units, Cybellum was acquired by LG Electronics in 2022 for approximately $240 million. The company's platform performs binary analysis without requiring source code access, making it particularly valuable for defense supply chain security where source code is often unavailable.
Dual-use relevance is high: product security and vulnerability assessment serves defense systems supply chain integrity and commercial automotive/IoT device security compliance.
