Forging Your
Cyber Resilience
With Continuous Penetration Testing
Our Story
We believe that Penetration Testing (PT), as it stands today, is obsolete. Software and algorithms can do a better job at penetration testing and help businesses continually assess and improve their cyber risks using the threat-oriented approach.
Pcysys (an acronym for “Proactive Cyber Systems”) was founded by Arik Liberzon who understood that enterprises do not have an effective means of knowing the true cyber risk that they carry, and have no way of understanding which vulnerabilities have the highest

negative business impact potential. Arik modeled his mastership of ethical hacking techniques into software and together with the serial IT entrepreneur, Arik Faingold, founded Pcysys. Soon thereafter, Mr. Liberzon was joined by a group of Israel’s elite cyber researchers and cyber warfare experts, who share the passion of giving organizations the upper hand in their struggle to fence off cyber attacks. Our mission is to develop an automated cyber risk validation platform that would enable them to defend against the best of the worst-intended hackers.
“If you have the ability to do it with a simple click of a button, why would you use a human to do it? The tool can ensure consistency, provide better reporting and do it faster. Not to mention requiring less skills.”
