Innovation Matrix Assessment
Raised $61M in combined seed and Series A within under 12 months (announced 2026-02-26) from Spark Capital, Kleiner Perkins, and Cyberstarts.
Described as already trusted by global enterprises to minimize disruption and automate compliance, though specific named customers were not disclosed.
$61M raise closed 2026-02-26 with a strong investor syndicate for a company that raised its entire round within a year of founding.
Continuously validating recovery-path resilience (rather than just confirming backups exist) addresses a real, underexamined gap between backup coverage and actual recoverability.
Headline statistics (5% resilience, 10% storage cost reduction) are self-reported by the company; no independent study was located.
Validating ransomware recovery readiness is a highly relevant, board-level concern as ransomware remains a top enterprise risk.
Why CISOs Should Care
Gambit's AI-powered resilience platform maps an organization's environment, security products, and backup tools to uncover gaps and validate recovery paths in real time -- addressing the finding that only around 5% of systems are actually resilient against ransomware despite broad backup coverage.
What Makes It Different
Focuses specifically on validating recovery and resilience (rather than just detection or prevention), continuously testing whether backup and recovery plans would actually work against real attack scenarios.
The Matrix Verdict
48/100 — EMERGING / UNRANKED
Fast-moving, well-funded resilience-validation platform with a striking, headline-grabbing statistic (5% ransomware resilience) that is a strong hook but should be treated as a company-reported figure pending independent replication.
Editorial Note: Claims vs. Verified Findings
Funding and company description verified via SecurityWeek and company release. The '5% resilient' and 'at least 10% cloud storage cost reduction' figures are company-reported.
