Our Story

2017-18

Cyber Guru is born

Cyber Guru was born in Italy in 2017 to meet the needs of a large Italian bank aware that to increase resistance to Cyber attacks it was necessary to act on the human factor, identified as the real weak link in the defensive chain.
The scouting done among the major Cyber Security Awareness solutions on the market, however, had highlighted significant limitations in terms of potential effectiveness and management complexity.

Starting from a specific need, the platform, by the end of 2019, had already transformed into a comprehensive and effective program, becoming in a short time, a real point of reference in the field of Cyber Security Awareness for the entire Italian market.

Growth

The year 2021 marks two important milestones.
The successful closing of the first funding round of €3.6 million with two funds specializing in early stage companies, P101 Ventures and Adara Ventures, and the doubling of revenues, accompanied by significant growth in the market.

In 2023, Cyber Guru strengthened its presence in Italy, beginning its international expansion in France and Spain. The customer portfolio exceeds 1 million active users in 2024, and a new round of Series B funding is finalized with a collection of $25 million, including Riverside Acceleration Capital, Educapital, Adara Ventures, and P101 Ventures.

Cyber Guru Academy: content that makes a difference

Conceiving, designing, and producing training content that can generate interest, engagement, and motivation to learn is a daily challenge for Cyber Guru’s Academy department.
Because it has become clear that training people to defend themselves against cyber crime requires more than a catchy platform and a multitude of content.
Designing and delivering truly effective training programs means turning technology content into content that is functional for learning by everyone, even those who have a complex relationship with technology.

This transformation process can only be achieved if you have 5 very strong competencies on the following topics: Cybersecurity, Psychology, Andragogy, Communication and Multimedia.
