Cyb3r Operations Secures £4M To Close Third-Party Risk Gaps

The round was led by Octopus Ventures, with follow-on investment from Pi Labs, bringing the company’s total funding to £5 million.

As organisations become more reliant on expanding ecosystems of SaaS platforms, cloud services, AI tools and external suppliers, cyber risk is increasingly distributed and difficult to manage. More than a third of major cyber incidents now involve third parties, yet many organisations still depend on periodic questionnaires and static audits that fail to capture how risk changes in real time.

Cyb3r Operations was founded to tackle this challenge by replacing fragmented, manual processes with continuous, automated oversight integrated across an organisation’s technology environment.

The company works with large enterprises to identify, assess, and monitor third-party cyber risks across their supply chains on an ongoing basis.

Rather than generating abstract risk metrics with limited operational value, Cyb3r Operations’ platform highlights the most critical external relationships, tracks risk evolution over time, prioritises response actions, and strengthens organisational resilience.

It also identifies vulnerabilities across third-party ecosystems, including compliance gaps, shadow IT, extended supply-chain exposures and other risks often overlooked by traditional point-in-time assessments.

Commenting on the company’s mission, Vincent Cook, founder and CEO of Cyb3r Operations, said many of today’s cybersecurity challenges stem not only from increasingly sophisticated threats, but also from internal processes that prevent organisations from clearly understanding where risk sits. He added that effective risk management requires continuous detection, assessment and response as relationships and dependencies evolve.

The funding will support platform expansion, further development of threat intelligence capabilities, and broader adoption by organisations managing third-party and supply-chain cyber risk.
