HYAS, a Victoria, Canada-based provider of threat intelligence based on adversary infrastructure, announced this week that it has closed a $16 million Series B round of funding led by S3 Ventures.
HYAS says it has created a massive data lake of attacker infrastructure, including domain-based intelligence that can be connected to other security tools using an API, and also offers its own cloud-based DNS security solution.
Enterprise security teams can use HYAS to hunt, detect, and identify adversary infrastructure to proactively block both known and not-yet-launched phishing and ransomware attacks at the network layer.

“HYAS turns the table on attackers by exposing and blocking their infrastructure, and communication channels,” explains Dave Ratner, CEO of HYAS.
HYAS CEO David Ratner said the company’s tools utilize âa combination of communication patterns and knowledge of adversary infrastructure that allows us to be very unique in detecting intrusions that no one else can find.”
HYAS, a threat intelligence startup that specializes in mapping and blocking the command and control infrastructure of malicious hackers, announced it has closed out its Series B round with $16 million in new funding.
