Our take

Cybersecurity teams face overwhelming challenges. Though new tools are receiving major investment, many are drowning in noise and struggling to stay ahead of increasingly sophisticated cyber threats. The rise of Generative AI has further escalated this problem, making it easier than ever for attackers to launch advanced, large-scale cyber attacks.

This chaotic environment demands a new approach to security, and that's where Maze steps in. The company is building a next-generation security platform that leverages modern AI to revolutionise Vulnerability Management, a critical area where traditional solutions are falling short.

Unlike current tools that rely on pre-defined logic, Maze claims it will make smarter, faster decisions that reduce backlogs and focus resources on the vulnerabilities that truly matter. While it is still yet to launch, its offerings could be game-changing for security teams.
