Twistlock

CEO: Ben Bernstein

Security is the greatest pain point facing enterprises tht want to jump on board with the rising popularity of container technology. Twistlock, whose name comes from a term for securing shipping containers in place, helps solve that problem with an offering that allows enterprises to monitor both static and runtime container application activity, establish security baselines prior to production and protect cloud and on-premise containers. While there have been no known high-profile exploits of container technology, it is proven that it is possible so it is only a matter of time as more enterprises adopt the technology, CEO Ben Bernstein said. In May, the company landed $2.5 million in seed funding from Israel-based venture capital company YL Ventures.
