DeepInspect

What DeepInspect does

DeepInspect S.r.l is an Italian OT (Operational Technology) and Industrial IoT cybersecurity company founded in April 2021 and headquartered in Rome, Italy. The company provides a unified platform combining patented methodology, certified hardware, and software for asset discovery, threat detection, and vulnerability assessment in critical infrastructure environments. A distinguishing technical capability is the platform's ability to operate in fully air-gapped environments without internet connectivity, addressing the operational constraints of regulated industries. The company was founded by individuals with over 20 years of international cybersecurity experience combined with military and government backgrounds, led by Co-Founder and Chief of R&D Department Antonio Mauro. The company identifies as 100% Italian and operates as a privately held S.r.l with no disclosed institutional funding.

The product portfolio centers on the DeepInspect Platform paired with four industry-specific certified hardware probes: the Energy&Transportation Probe (EN 50121-4 certified for railway and energy applications), the Oil&Gas Probe (designed for hazardous environments with explosive atmospheres), and two maritime devices (DNV certified for moisture, salt, vibration, and temperature extremes). The software stack includes a Centralized Dashboard and Orchestrator for unified command and control, plus the patented Hierarchy Matrix feature that maps permitted traffic between network segments and generates real-time alerts based on pattern analysis. The company holds a US patent granted by the USPTO in November 2023. The platform integrates with third-party SOC/SIEM and risk analysis tools, most notably through a strategic technology partnership with NetWitness announced in September 2023.

DeepInspect generates revenue through a combination of hardware sales, software platform subscriptions, and professional and managed services. The company operates a direct enterprise sales motion with a 'Book a Demo' qualification process and quote-based multi-year contracts, supplemented by a channel partner program and co-marketing with NetWitness at industry events. The company serves eight verticals: Maritime, Transportation, Energy, Oil&Gas, Healthcare, Industry 4.0, Government & Military, and Airports. Distribution is global in scope, with active event presence at RSAC 2024 (San Francisco) and GITEX 2024 (Dubai). No public pricing is disclosed, no customer logos are publicly named, and no funding rounds or revenue figures have been disclosed.
