OP[4], a Chantilly, VA-based company built on cybersecurity technology originally developed for DARPA and productized via AFWERX, launched with over $2M in initial seed funding secured through a combination of product sales and private investment.

The backers were not disclosed.

The company intends to use the funds to accelerate growth and expand operations.

Founded in 2022 and led by CEO Irby Thompson and CTO Scott Lee, OP[4] is an automated firmware security company. The security platform is designed to automatically find and fix N-Day and 0-Day vulnerabilities in Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices and embedded systems. The fully automated system continuously and accurately detects, isolates, validates, classifies, prioritizes, and remediates N-Day and 0-Day vulnerabilities. This enables product development teams to concentrate first on addressing mission-critical vulnerabilities across their entire software supply chain, reducing risk and enhancing time to market. Already delivering the software-as-a-service product to the U.S. government, the company is preparing to release industry-specific versions for Consumer IoT, Aerospace & Defense, and Telecommunications markets this Spring.
