The company evolved from Cybint Solutions (cyber education for organizations) and HackerU (professional training), merging and rebranding as ThriveDX.
Commercially, ThriveDX competes in the cybersecurity training and workforce development market alongside SANS Institute, Offensive Security (OffSec), Immersive Labs, and Hack The Box. Founded in Tel Aviv with roots dating to 2014 (Cybint) and earlier (HackerU), the company has raised over $170M from investors including SoftBank Vision Fund, Lumos Capital Group, and other investors.

ThriveDX's Israeli roots in IDF cyber training methodology inform its approach to building operational cyber capabilities.
