Maro Secures $4.3 Million in Seed Funding to Eliminate Human Risk in Cybersecurity
Maro's new cognitive security platform intervenes in the moment, redefining how companies manage human risk across social engineering, insider threats, human error, and ungoverned AI usage NEW YORK, July 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Maro, the cognitive security platform company created to empower security leaders to manage human risk proactively, announced today it successfully raised $4.3 million from Downing Capital Group. With the Maro platform now available, the company plans to use the seed round for team growth, product development, and executing its go-to-market strategy. Maro empowers security leaders to take control of human risk and defend against human error and threats amplified by AI, including social engineering, insider risk, and ungoverned AI usage. Maro's platform dynamically intervenes in the moment to prevent cognitive risks from becoming security or compliance incidents, providing security teams with instant visibility into their workforce's behaviors and intentions. Verizon's 2025 Data Breach Investigation Report (DBIR) cites breaches involving a human element at 60%. Maro reinforces secure behaviors in real-time, securing decision-making in the workflow with use-case-level policy enforcement. "When stress levels are high and attackers use that opportunity to manipulate your workforce into taking risky actions, Maro protects how people think, decide, and act," said Jesse Downing, CEO at Downing Capital Group. "Maro's founding team has deep cybersecurity experience solving human-focused problems, working together across three companies, including several with successful exits." Maro was founded in late 2024 by Jadon Montero, Gwen Betts, and Jen Andre, a repeat cybersecurity founder team with more than 40 years of combined experience building and scaling category-defining security companies. Jadon Montero, Maro's CEO, has deep experience in designing and bringing innovative security solutions to market, including SOAR, EASM, and MDR. Montero also served as a former product leader at Bitdefender, Censys, Rapid7, Komand, and ThreatStack, and began his career studying cyberwarfare under the first United States Director of National Intelligence, John Negroponte. Gwen Betts, CXO, led the global product design team at Rapid7, encompassing detection and response, vulnerability management, and cloud security. She is known for scaling human-centered product solutions in complex domains. Betts was also the founding design and GTM leader at Komand. Jen Andre, CTO, is a repeat founder and technologist with extensive expertise in cybersecurity, including as founder of Komand (acquired by Rapid7) and Threat Stack (acquired by F5). Andre also served as the vice president of product at Greynoise and Rapid7. She built her early career at Symantec and Mandiant as a Security Operations Center (SOC) analyst and product builder, respectively. "Maro was born from our years spent inside broken security workflows where SOC analysts didn't have time to speak directly to every employee who urgently needed their help after legacy tools failed to stop the employee from taking a risky action," said Montero. "The acceleration of generative AI, coupled with remote work and shadow software as a service (SaaS), exponentially increases the risk that users run afoul of company policy without even knowing it. With Maro, governance, risk, and compliance happen in the moment so that human risk is managed and mitigated - before issues even reach the SOC." Maro was developed with input from 50 CISO and CIO leaders in financial technology, healthcare technology, and retail. Overwhelmingly, these leaders identified AI usage governance as the most pressing human risk factor today, followed closely by targeted social engineering and insider risk. They emphasized that existing human risk tools generated excessive noise, lacked visibility at the usage level (where most knowledge work occurs: in the browser), and lacked enforceable policies responsive to both timing and behavioral context. As a result, security teams struggled to demonstrate ROI or drive measurable reductions in human risk. With Maro, security leaders can: Enforce a behavioral policy that integrates GRC oversight into everyday workflows, transforming static rules into real-time behavioral controls. Prevent data loss to AI Chatbots and stop sensitive data exposure without disrupting productivity or blocking innovation. Intercept real-time deception like clickjacking and typosquatting with browser-level protection. Intercept intelligent social engineering that catches psychological attacks at the moment they strike, including Adversary-in-the-Browser and other AI-powered threats. Improve CIS coverage by 52% in as little as a week. Maro's platform is designed to intuitively identify, shape, and mitigate human risk factors in real-time, providing leaders with a novel way to prevent incidents before they occur. Security leaders can learn more and request access to Maro at About MaroMaro empowers security leaders to proactively manage human risk across social engineering, insider threats, human error, and ungoverned AI usage. Maro engages directly with risky user behavior as it happens. While conventional solutions depend on repetitive training or static policy enforcement, Maro uses AI to monitor real-world usage, classify intent, and deliver context-aware, just-in-time interventions.

Gaining A Competitive Edge Through Procurement Automation
Mahesh Rajasekharan is the President and CEO of Cleo. Can modernizing procurement give your company a competitive edge? In this article we'll look at how to achieve the benefits of supplier enablement, orchestrating supply chain ecosystems and AI-driven automation in simplifying and streamlining your organization's procurement processes. Procurement activity functions roughly as follows at most companies: 1. A buyer (e.g., your company) sends a purchase order (PO) to a supplier. 2. The supplier receives and acknowledges the PO—more than likely today this happens via an EDI 855 or similar response. 3. Goods are shipped by the supplier, transported using a logistics company and later received at your location. 4. The supplier sends you an invoice. 5. Your accounts payable (AP) team processes payment according to the agreed terms. Simple right? Maybe, a lot more happens behind the scenes. Legally there are contract negotiations, service-level agreements (SLAs), regulatory compliance to onboard a new supplier. From the finance perspective there may be fuel surcharges, risk management insurances, bank settlements and more. Also, with every new supplier added, the trade routes and logistics flows need to be established and onboarded as well. While aspects like ordering and shipping are increasingly being automated, these other layers still often depend on human decision-making, legal review, or manually executed tasks—making fully automating procurement a real challenge. Yet with the right tools and strategy, thanks to AI it's soon going to be possible to bring end-to-end digital efficiency to even the most complex procurement environments. It's important to start planning now given how deeply embedded manual procurement remains in many enterprises. Such limitations can be costly, especially in terms of productivity, visibility and relationships. Consider these drawbacks of manual procurement: Lost productivity: Routine tasks eat up time across AP, legal and supply chain teams. Unpredictability: Delays and errors are more likely when humans manually track confirmations or send files via email. Increased costs: Manual workflows require more full-time employees and introduce costly errors, chargebacks and inefficiencies. Slower procure-to-pay cycles: This can delay production, create inventory imbalances or disrupt delivery schedules. Expanded risk: Every emailed invoice or attachment download is a potential phishing vector. Ultimately, poor supplier responsiveness—whether a late confirmation, an invoicing mistake or a shipment delay—has a ripple effect. Inventory gets misaligned, production slows, warehousing costs rise and delays can ensue, all impacting your ability to meet customer expectations. So, what's the best path forward? AI-driven supply chain orchestration can help standardize procurement processes, reduce friction and ensure visibility at every step. First step: Categorize current and future suppliers into four channels: 1. Supplier EDI. 2. Ingesting PDFs and other structured data. 3. Portal-based collaboration. 4. Automating unstructured invoices and embedding the necessary technology flexibility to rapidly onboard and streamline all four categories of suppliers, big and small. As more companies transform their procurement operations by integrating supplier interactions to support automation, real-time collaboration and proactive risk management, ecosystem relationships will grow stronger in several important ways: End-to-end workflow automation: Automate from PO to invoice with EDI/API integration. Prebuilt templates and logic: Accelerate trading partner onboarding by using AI to quickly adapt to industry-specific requirements. Real-time visibility: Leverage dashboards, alerts and analytics to spot issues as they arise. Predictive AI insights: Anticipate bottlenecks before they affect operations. This is the route to reducing manual processes and orchestrating a smarter procurement lifecycle. The result? Faster transactions, fewer errors, and better alignment across procurement, operations, legal, finance and IT. Plus, better ecosystem networks, cleaner data, better decision-making, and stronger relationships. How will you know if transforming your procurement processes is moving the needle? You'll need to introduce KPIs at various stages of the process to ensure your efforts are driving results. For instance: Are orders accepted and fulfilled without changes or errors? How quickly do suppliers acknowledge receipt of a PO? Are goods arriving when expected and in correct quantity? How many require rework or reconciliation? Are you meeting targets without disrupting supplier relationships? Can you track reliability, responsiveness and compliance? Can you detect patterns in late shipments or error-prone transactions? Since every business is unique, you'll come up with metrics that suit your needs. Bottom line: With AI-driven supply chain orchestration you can leverage real-time data to make better, smarter decisions. And in doing so ... keep your suppliers accountable without needing to micromanage every interaction. It's important to realize procurement automation doesn't happen solely inside the four walls of your organization. It extends across your entire digital ecosystem. To unlock its potential, you'll also need to enable your suppliers. That means making it easier for them to integrate with your supply chain network via EDI or API. That way they'll be better able to respond quickly and resolve issues collaboratively. When suppliers are supported in mutually beneficial ways like score-carding, alerting, easy-to-use templates with pre-defined business rules and overall enhanced visibility, everyone wins. So, how can you get procurement automation rolling at your organization? Start by having a strategic business-technology discussion and answering a few strategic questions: • Manual order entry? • Delayed acknowledgments? • Missing status updates? • Reducing costs? • Speedier response times? • Improving supplier compliance? • Inconsistent lead times? • Payment delays? • Communication breakdowns? Answers to these questions will help you focus and prioritize your procurement automation digital transformation efforts to achieve the best solution for your enterprise. Let's face it: Procurement is an essential supply chain function. Yet too many enterprises still rely on disconnected, manual workflows that increase cost, reduce responsiveness and elevate risk. It doesn't have to be this way. By enabling your suppliers on your terms, your company can move from tactical procurement to strategic supply chain orchestration. And that will give you a true competitive edge. Forbes Technology Council is an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs and technology executives. Do I qualify?
