Mykonos Software offers an award‑winning Web Intrusion Prevention System (WIPS) that uses deception—inserting thousands of detection points—to detect, confuse, slow and prevent attackers in real time. The product tracks individual attackers, profiles their behavior and deploys countermeasures without relying on signature‑based approaches or producing false positives. Mykonos says administrators are freed from writing rules, analyzing massive logs or monitoring another console. The company plans to use the new funding to expand security and engineering capabilities and increase investment in sales and marketing. Leadership includes president and CEO David Koretz, and the company highlights recent recognition including a Wall Street Journal Technology Innovation Award in Information Security and an SC Magazine finalist placement. The company is based in San Francisco.
