Just spotted this one lighting up my LinkedIn feed: cybersecurity startup Reclaim Security has officially launched from stealth — and they’re coming in hot with a bold message for CISOs everywhere: you might want to hold off on that new security hire.
The San Francisco-based company announced the general availability of what it’s calling the first AI-powered exposure remediation platform — and it’s positioning itself not as a tool for finding risks, but for fixing them automatically and continuously, without adding headcount or disrupting business.
“If there’s one thing AI is proving, it’s that one person can now do what used to take ten,” said Barak Klinghofer, CEO and co-founder of Reclaim, in the launch announcement. “We’re not here to replace your team. We’re here to help you hold off on your next hire because your team’s ability to remediate threat exposure just scaled exponentially.”
The “Final Mile” of Cyber Risk: Actually Fixing Things
Reclaim isn’t the first startup to take a shot at the sprawling challenge of exposure management. But as Klinghofer points out, most platforms stop at visibility and prioritization — leaving already stretched-thin security teams staring at endless dashboards of unresolved issues.
Reclaim claims to close that gap with its AI-driven remediation engine, backed by its proprietary PIPE™ (Productivity Impact Prediction Engine). PIPE simulates the effects of any security fix before it’s applied, helping teams avoid the classic tradeoff between speed and safety.
The approach flips the script on what exposure management should be: not just a list of problems, but a system that resolves them, automatically and safely.
The Early Numbers: 80% Ransomware Scenario Reduction
One early adopter, Telit Cinterion, a global IoT and edge connectivity leader, says the impact has been immediate:
-
80% reduction in ransomware attack scenarios
-
90% reduction in manual remediation workload
-
Zero disruption to business operations
“Reclaim has transformed our security posture,” said Itzik Menashe, VP of Information Security and IT at Telit Cinterion. “We’re not just identifying problems anymore. We’re fixing them. Automatically. Safely. It’s changed how we work.”
A Shot Across the Bow at Cybersecurity Hiring Trends
The timing of this launch is interesting. As the talent crunch in cybersecurity continues — with demand for skilled security engineers still outpacing supply — Reclaim’s message hits directly at a sore spot: throwing more people at the problem doesn’t scale. But AI-powered automation might.
The pitch is clear: rather than hiring another person to chase down misconfigurations and patch gaps, let Reclaim handle the remediation grunt work while your team stays focused on higher-level strategy.
Catch Them at RSA 2025
Reclaim will be showcasing the platform and these early customer results at RSA Conference 2025 in San Francisco.
If their numbers hold up under scrutiny, expect this “remediation-first” approach to stir up serious conversations among CISOs debating whether to spend on more tools, more people — or smarter automation.
