Startup Spotlight at Blackhat USA 2025

FireTail has been selected a finalist for the Blackhat USA 2025 Startup Spotlight Competition

Startup Spotlight at Blackhat USA 2025

Following a great experience at Blackhat Asia earlier in the year, we’re excited to announce that we’ve been selected as a finalist again. This time it's for the Blackhat Startup Spotlight competition in Las Vegas, August 2-7.

To be selected as one of just four finalists at the world's biggest cyber startup contest is a real honor. We are very excited to showcase how FireTail is helping organizations to innovate and adopt AI securely.

Bringing AI Security to the Global Stage

The rapid adoption of AI presents unprecedented security risks, and most organizations lack the visibility and protection needed to secure their AI-driven systems.

At Blackhat, we’ll be demonstrating how FireTail helps enterprises discover, assess, and secure AI usage while preventing threats like shadow AI, data leaks, and AI-specific attacks.

We are thrilled to be taking part and really looking forward to what promises to be a great event.
