Pistachio Security Awareness Platform

Pistachio is the world's first fully automated security awareness training platform requiring zero manual oversight. Founded in 2019 in Oslo, Norway (formerly CYBR), the platform runs autonomously in the background, delivering personalized cyberattack simulations and security scenarios directly to employee inboxes via email, Microsoft Teams, and Slack. Setup takes under 10 minutes via Microsoft SSO, then the platform handles everything—no configuration, no maintenance, no user management required. The non-punitive approach treats mistakes as learning opportunities rather than failures.

The AI-driven platform analyzes user behavior and learning patterns to deliver personalized training that adapts to individual risk levels. With 167+ unique simulation types covering phishing, QR code attacks, C-suite impersonation, and brand spoofing, Pistachio sent over 1.2 million simulations in 2024. The platform syncs with Microsoft Entra every 30 minutes for automatic onboarding/offboarding. Users receive instant feedback on simulations with scenario-based microlearning questions. Reporting includes customized dashboards by department and location. The company offers two products: Practice (training) and Presence (insider threat detection).

Serving 600+ organizations across 99 countries including University of St Andrews and The RiskPoint Group, Pistachio achieved a 4x increase in annual recurring revenue from 2023 to 2024 with a 2 million+ annual attack simulation run rate. The company raised $10.57M total funding including a $7M Series A in April 2025 led by Walter Ventures. With 60+ employees across offices in Oslo, London, and Valencia, Pistachio is ISO 27001 certified.
