Polyverse：获融$8M 开源代码加扰

【200220 Geekwire】Polyverse raised $ 8 million to expand the reach of its cybersecurity technology that is used by government organizations and security-minded companies.

【谷歌翻译 未经校对】Polyverse筹集了800万美元，以扩大其网络安全技术的覆盖范围，该技术已被政府组织和安全意识强的公司所使用。

The Bellevue, Wash. Company — a member of CNBC's top 100 startups list — says it stands out from other cybersecurity providers because it helps customers prevent attacks rather than react to them. Polyverse's main product is “Polymorphing for Linux,” which scrambles open- source code without affecting its operation, shielding it from hackers looking to exploit weaknesses in the code.

华盛顿贝尔维尤公司（Bellevue，Wash。Company）是CNBC百强初创企业名单中的一员。该公司表示，它在其他网络安全提供商中脱颖而出，因为它可以帮助客户预防攻击而不是对其做出反应。 Polyverse的主要产品是“ Polymorphing for Linux”，它在不影响其原始代码运行的情况下对开源代码进行加扰，从而使其免受黑客利用代码弱点的攻击。

Polyverse has been validated by the US Department of Defense for mitigating zero-day attacks, intrusions that occur just as a vulnerability becomes public, such as the infamous WannaCry ransomware and hacks of companies like Equifax. The company says its technology is “running on millions of servers. "

Polyverse已通过美国国防部的验证，可以缓解零日攻击，在漏洞逐渐公开时发生的入侵，例如臭名昭著的WannaCry勒索软件和Equifax等公司的黑客攻击。该公司表示，其技术“正在数百万台服务器上运行。 ”

"Reactive approaches fundamentally leave companies vulnerable for large periods of time — sometimes years or more," Polyverse CEO Alexander Gounares told GeekWire. "With our Polymorphing technologies for operating systems and scripting languages, we are able to stop attacks before they start."

Polyverse首席执行官亚历山大·古纳雷斯（Alexander Gounares）告诉GeekWire：“反应性方法从根本上使公司在很长一段时间（有时甚至是几年或更长时间）内处于脆弱状态。 “借助针对操作系统和脚本语言的多态技术，我们能够在攻击开始之前就将其停止。”

The company has increased its headcount by about 50 percent over the last year, and it now has approximately 30 people on staff. Polyverse plans to use the cash infusion to expand in current markets — North America and Japan — and enter new territory, including the UK and Singapore.

该公司在过去一年中将员工人数增加了约50％，现在拥有约30名员工。 Polyverse计划使用现金注入的方式在北美和日本等当前市场扩展业务，并进入包括英国和新加坡在内的新领域。

Japanese security giant Soliton Systems KK and existing investors were involved in the funding round. The 4-year-old company, which is led by academics and engineers from Amazon, Microsoft and Google, also announced some recent hires.

日本安全巨头Soliton Systems KK和现有投资者参与了这一轮融资。由亚马逊，微软和谷歌的学者和工程师领导的这家成立4年的公司还宣布了一些新的聘用。

Early Microsoft architect and computer hacker Mark “Zibo” Joseph Zbikowski joined the company. He was a designer of the MS-DOS executable file format.

Vice President of Enterprise Sales Phillip Cockrell came over from SUSE, maker of an operating system built on top of Linux. Cockrell led sales relationships with partners such as Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, IBM and more.

New Chief Marketing Officer Joanne Harris also came over from SUSE. She was global vice president of marketing there, responsible for at marketing strategy and planning across the company.

早期的Microsoft架构师和计算机黑客Mark“ Zibo” Joseph Zbikowski加入了公司。他是MS-DOS可执行文件格式的设计者。

企业销售副总裁Phillip Cockrell从SUSE接任，SUSE是基于Linux的操作系统的制造商。 Cockrell领导了与诸如Amazon Web Services，Microsoft Azure，IBM等合作伙伴的销售关系。
