Hyperwise
Hyperwise is an Israeli cybersecurity startup focused on exploit prevention and advanced attack mitigation at runtime.
Visit WebsiteCompany Overview
Hyperwise built exploit prevention technology aimed at stopping advanced attacks before they execute successfully, with emphasis on runtime protection against memory-corruption and zero-day-style techniques.
The company was founded in Israel, raised venture backing, and was acquired by Check Point in 2015. Its technical focus aligned with enterprise demand for prevention-first controls beyond signature-based detection.
Dual-use relevance is high: runtime exploit prevention supports both commercial infrastructure and defense-adjacent systems where high-consequence compromise requires proactive mitigation.
Dual-Use Assessment
Runtime exploit prevention is dual-use for enterprise cyber defense and mission-critical defense-adjacent system protection.
