The demand for a scalable threat modeling solution has never been higher as companies across every industry and segment look to scale their cybersecurity practices and teams. With hundreds of customers, the largest professional threat modeling communities, and tens of thousands of threat models built, the combined organization is uniquely positioned to democratize secure by design practices, enabling enterprises to virtually scale their internal security and development teams while protecting all critical applications and infrastructure.

“This milestone accelerates our vision to protect customers with an AI-native platform powered by the industry’s largest proprietary dataset. By combining our teams and technology, we’re enabling faster innovation, deeper intelligence, and a security partner built to scale with our customers,” said Archie Agarwal, Founder and Chief Innovation Officer of ThreatModeler.

“This is an exciting leap forward for the industry, as both our companies share a passion for helping enterprises start left with their secure by design approach,” added Stephen de Vries, CEO of IriusRisk. “By joining forces, we are better positioned to deliver on that shared mission.”

Together, ThreatModeler and IriusRisk bring complementary strengths that redefine how threat modeling is practiced at enterprise scale. ThreatModeler’s AI-driven platform enables security architects to operate with speed, consistency, and impact across complex environments, while IriusRisk’s deep engagement with development and architecture teams has driven broad adoption and the industry’s most active threat modeling community. The combined platform expands access to critical expertise, embeds threat modeling across the software lifecycle, and delivers intelligent automation that has already helped customers build threat models twice as fast and scale adoption by more than tenfold.

“Cybersecurity is a nonstop arms race, now accelerated by AI. Threat modeling is essential for teams that want to proactively protect enterprise systems and applications,” said John DeLoche, Co-Founder and Managing Partner at Invictus Growth Partners. “This acquisition unites leading threat-modeling expertise and creates the industry’s largest dataset, giving enterprises a decisive advantage in the AI era.”

The combined company is majority owned by Invictus Growth Partners, with Paladin Capital Group, the longstanding investor in IriusRisk, remaining a shareholder.
