Ballistic Ventures

Ballistic Ventures is a new kind of venture capital firm, built by and for cybersecurity entrepreneurs and investors. For over 35 years, our work in the field has granted us exclusive insights into the evolution of the cyber threat landscape. We’ve tracked its progression from the benign hacking of the 80s to the ruthless and insidious attacks on individuals and nations alike, which disrupt millions of lives daily.
