  "account": "Bynario, a Milan-based cybersecurity company, has secured €2.1 million in pre-Seed funding to bolster its autonomous application security platform. The round was led by 360 Capital Partners, with PranaVentures also participating. Alfredo Pesoli, CEO and co-founder, emphasized the growing threat posed by AI-driven vulnerability research and exploitation. Founded in 2025 by Pesoli, Giancarlo Russo, and Lorenzo Cavallaro, Bynario's platform identifies, validates, prioritizes, and remediates software vulnerabilities across code, cloud infrastructure, and the software supply chain. Their autonomous approach helps organizations focus on exploitable vulnerabilities rather than flagging every possible issue. Bynario gained attention after its researchers used frontier AI models to expose serious vulnerabilities in Apple's macOS Screen Sharing technology, which Apple subsequently addressed. As software vulnerabilities increasingly serve as entry points for enterprise systems, representing 31% of incidents, Bynario's AI-driven defense is seen as a crucial solution amid the cybersecurity skills shortage. The new funding will be allocated towards platform development, team expansion, and scaling to meet enterprise demand.",
