Softbank backs $400m investment in Israeli industrial cybersecurity firm Claroty | Times of Israel

According to a joint official statement Wednesday, Japanese investment giant SoftBank co-led a $400 million investment in Israeli cybersecurity business Claroty, a developer of technology to safeguard businesses and industrial facilities against cybersecurity assaults. Yossi Cohen, the former head of the Mossad, is in charge of SoftBank’s Israel operations, which he left in June after more than five years on the job. Cohen will join Claroty’s board of directors as part of the investment. Claroty raised $140 million six months ago, which the business claimed as the “biggest investment ever” in the industrial cybersecurity market at the time.
