ZEST Security offers an AI-powered cloud risk resolution platform that correlates and pinpoints the root cause of cloud risks to craft resolution paths that eliminate vulnerabilities and misconfigurations. The platform combines generative AI with open-source components to provide mitigation options and preventative remediation via Infrastructure as Code (IaC). ZEST aims to remove manual back-and-forth between security and DevOps teams and shorten the typical 30–60 day remediation cycle for cloud security risks. The company highlights that 80% of resolved risks often resurface and positions its product to close tickets rather than just flag issues. ZEST exited stealth with a $5 million seed investment from Hanaco Ventures, Silvertech Ventures and angel investors. The founders are Snir Ben Shimol (CEO) and Uri Aronovici (CTO), and the company has offices in New York City and Tel Aviv.
