Cybersprint

What Cybersprint does

Cybersprint is a Netherlands-based cybersecurity company founded in 2015 and headquartered in The Hague, specializing in digital footprint monitoring and external attack surface management. With a team of 11–50 employees led by founder Pieter Jansen (CEO), the firm developed capabilities for continuously discovering and assessing organizations' internet-facing assets and exposures — a niche segment of the broader cybersecurity market. Cybersprint operated as a privately held, venture-backed B2B vendor, raising approximately $3 million in total across two funding rounds: a $743K seed in April 2017 from InnovationQuarter, and a $2.26M Series A in November 2018 led by Vortex Capital Partners with participation from KPN Ventures and InnovationQuarter.

No public pricing, customer logos, or revenue figures are disclosed in the source data. The firm's website (cybersprint.com) now redirects to Darktrace.com with explicit UTM tracking indicating the redirect — strongly implying that Cybersprint was acquired by Darktrace Holdings Limited (LSE: DARK), a UK-listed AI-native cybersecurity company. As a result, Cybersprint's attack surface management capabilities appear to have been absorbed into Darktrace's broader ActiveAI Security Platform, which spans network, email, cloud, OT, identity, and endpoint security. Within the combined entity, Cybersprint contributes exposure management and digital footprint functionality; standalone operational and financial metrics for Cybersprint as an independent entity are not available.

Broad incumbents

• Darktrace: Darktrace is the parent platform that acquired Cybersprint and integrated its ASM technology into the ActiveAI Security Platform. It is comparable because Cybersprint's product is now a module within Darktrace's broader NDR/email/cloud/OT/identity/endpoint portfolio.
• Tenable: Tenable operates the Tenable.io / Nessus vulnerability and exposure management platform, a broader incumbent whose external ASM and vulnerability offerings compete with the capabilities Cybersprint contributed to Darktrace.
• Microsoft Defender External Attack Surface Management: Microsoft's EASM offering, bundled with Defender, competes directly with Cybersprint-style digital footprint discovery and benefits from native Azure distribution — a comparable end-customer outcome for ASM buyers.
• CrowdStrike Falcon Surface: CrowdStrike's Falcon Surface module delivers external ASM inside the Falcon platform, comparable to Darktrace's positioning of Cybersprint's technology as an integrated ASM module rather than a standalone product.
• Palo Alto Networks Cortex Xpanse: Cortex Xpanse (formerly Expanse) is Palo Alto Networks' external attack surface management product, a direct comparable to Cybersprint's capabilities now embedded inside the Darktrace platform.
• Mandiant (Google Cloud): Mandiant, now part of Google Cloud, provides attack surface management and threat intelligence services comparable to the digital footprint monitoring and incident investigation services Cybersprint delivered.

Direct peers

• Censys: Censys is a direct attack surface management competitor offering continuous internet-wide asset discovery and monitoring, overlapping closely with Cybersprint's original digital footprint / external ASM focus.
• BitSight: BitSight is a direct competitor in continuous external cyber risk monitoring and attack surface visibility, addressing the same digital footprint use cases Cybersprint pioneered for European mid-market and enterprise customers.

Emerging players

• Wiz: Wiz has rapidly expanded from CSPM into external attack surface and exposure management, representing a fast-growing competing ASM-adjacent platform aimed at cloud-first enterprises.
• Recorded Future: Recorded Future offers external threat intelligence and digital risk protection that overlaps with the brand/dark-web and digital-footprint monitoring elements of Cybersprint's original product.
