## About

Founded in 2021 by Gregoire Ostian and Paul Anthony and based in Paris, France, Elba is a software-based cybersecurity platform that detects security issues and guides end-users on how to fix them. In June 2023, Elba raises EUR 2.5 million in seed funding from XAnge Private Equity, including eFounders, Kima Ventures, Plug and Play Ventures, and Uncorrelated Ventures. As of 2023, Theo Rouer serves as the CEO of the company.

The company provides a line of products, including data loss prevention, shadow IT, authentication protection, phishing simulations, onboarding, and training. With Elba's SaaS Security feature, companies can scan, monitor, and resolve vulnerabilities at scale, ensuring the protection of their SaaS applications. The platform also detects and reduces the risks of data loss by identifying sensitive data shared externally and automatically remediating potential alerts in the context of employees. Furthermore, Elba provides visibility into all SaaS apps used within the company, allowing organizations to clean up unused, non-compliant, and risky applications.

Elba also focuses on user awareness and education, providing regular and engaging trainings on cyber risks. It also conducts hyper-customized phishing campaigns to reduce phishing risks, with progress tracking and measurement of improvement. The company also integrates with software such as Slack, Office 365, Google Workspace, Github, Dropbox, Confluence, Teams, Gmail, and others.

The organization plans to use the June 2023 funding to increase its workforce, invest in research and development, accelerate its business in the American market, and expand internationally.
